I think it's a strange that some of the most liberal people in the world (bay area hippies, yay!) are also some of the biggest advocates to break down privacy barriers. For better or worse, I am personally in this camp as well.
But good post, I totally agree that the current phase of communication is going to be passive broadcasting. I think a more interesting question is ... what's next?

How does he get his del.icio.us feed into Facebook?
You can do it in any of these four ways (and likely many more).
1. There is a Delicious FB application. That's how I have done it historically.
2. Facebook added FriendFeed like features into its core functionality. I now have a direct Delicious feed into FB.
3. You can feed Delicious into FriendFeed and then install the FriendFeed application into FB.
4. You can get an RSS feed for your Delicious bookmarks and use that to directly feed into FB, FriendFeed, etc...

* How do I choose which things I want to share when most sharing becomes more ambient?
* How do we filter which things we want to see?
I think the second problem is being worked on a lot more right now than the first.
I also think that we should consider the issue of privacy. In order to give better recommendations a company needs more data, where is the balance between the best recommendations and handing over too much information to one company. Is there a way of providing recommendations with distributed data so that no one company has access to it all?
