How is Facebook not top-down? However it tries it can not be anything but top-down. Bottom up or peer-to-peer is bittorrent, RSS and SMTP. Protocols designed for distributed control. We need more of this, and less of corporate control.
That quote seems to be talking about the "social graph", not Facebook. Facebook pushes the "social graph" as part of their product, but I don't think they'd claim Facebook is the same thing as the graph.
