As I mentioned in <a href="http://tropophilia.com/2007/12/31/the-google-reader-debate-what-is-a-friend-what-is-public-what-is-privacy/" rel="nofollow">this post</a>, Google is good at figuring out who you communicate with... but it's not good at figuring out who's a friend and who's just a contact. In my opinion, there's a middle ground to be had. If Google detects that you e-mail someone a lot, can't it just have a little notification that says "We noticed you e-mail X a lot. Want to add him as a friend?" Only then would you be able to exchage shared Google Reader items, talk on GChat, and -- soon -- see their updates on iGoogle, etc. It's kind of a prompted opt-in, which I think is more than acceptable. And I agree, though I haven't used it much yet, Facebook Chat is not that great. I think it's mostly because people don't just "hang out" all day on Facebook like they do on Gmail. Maybe this will change over time, but I don't think it will really ever compete with GChat, especially as Google continues to upgrade their social services.

I'm much more likely to take advantage of expanded offerings from Google in the social realm--just as I'm already using Gchat, but won't be using Facebook Chat much at all. There's one side of Google that bothers me from a social networking angle: some people I email are not really close friends or even distant acquaintances. When I see their name show up in my chat box (or, as these social tools expand, I see their updates through my Google account), I have to scramble to block them. Now, maybe selectively LIMITING your social graph is more beneficial than selectively EXPANDING (Facebook) your social graph...but it makes for some uncomfortable closeness with that random guy who bought your old guitar amp off Ebay (stop trying to chat with me, dude).
