Both Facebook proper and its messaging system have apps that millions of people use on their phones every day. I can’t remember the last time I logged into either one.

I’ll gladly tell you anything you want to know about the movies I watch and my unusual interest in women’s undergarments, but first, what’s it worth to you? Free, is the wrong answer.
