A whole student newspaper built on Facebook. Yikes.
Found in the comments on Dave Lee’s post Five things student editors should do with Facebook in 2008, at least one of which I intend to steal.

My only problem with the newspaper as facebook app? This:
Granting access to information is required to use applications. If you are not willing to grant access to your information, do not use this application.
F that. Why should I have to grant access to my personal information in order to view a student newspaper? Sorry, I’m not checking it out. It’s like it’s back to the days of “free registration” for news sites.
