Thinking about Facebook, I've scribbled a short list of things I could see doing with it, if it could separate identities:
Home and Hearth - keeping in touch with close family members and very close friends: people who are welcome to enter our house any time they like, whether or not we're there.
A custom-built small town - Everybody I know in life. Sort of a small-scale blog or forum.
Wright's Taliesin - a community of colleagues, sharing a creative life around a broad topic (for example, computing and community)
Workshop - an amateur community, learning by doing. For example, a poetry critique group or a singing group.
Algonquin club - being witty with witty people.
Doctor's hours - being available when a fire happens at work, whenever it happens.
I can't imagine mashing all these groups into one undifferentiated lump of 'Friends'.
