Facebook has successfully made conversation a feature as opposed to a destination. Let me explain. Earlier, one could write on a friend's wall to kick off a conversation. The wall was the destination for conversation. Then came the fun wall, super wall etc. Now, Facebook has made everything (almost everything) conversation ready media. Your photos, videos, links, notes, status updates are all commentable. Every "media" (in a loose sense) in Facebook is commentable. This is exactly the promise of social media.
Now, here's the feature request. Make all comments taggable. Notice in the image above, I have commented referring to Kevin Rose. Now, if only I could tag that text with the Facebook profile for Kevin, multiple things become possible. Readers of this comment are able to find who Kevin is. Kevin can be notified that he has been tagged in a comment. And he may find it appropriate to join in on the conversation. It also helps Kevin keep track of his reputation within the social network. Just thinking out loud. What do you think?
Note that Twitter already does this by using the @(username) paradigm.
Appreciate your literary grace, is well written
