Woman has 152 Facebook 'friends' tattooed on arm


As a sign of how much friendship and technology have influenced people's lives, a woman has had her 152 Facebook friends' images tattooed on her arm. The woman posted on YouTube her "My Social Tattoo" video, which showed how her Facebook friends were tattooed on her arm, tech site Mashable reported Wednesday. "Friends are a many splendored thing — and it’s natural to carry them in one’s heart throughout one’s ever-storied life. It seems a little extreme, however, to tattoo them on one’s arm," Mashable noted. It was the latest show of how Facebook, the juggernaut social networking site, has influenced the present generation. Earlier this year, CNET reported rapper T-Pain "honored" Facebook with a tattooed presence on his forearm - a Facebook "Like" button. "You don't have to 'Like' me," the tattoo read, with the "like" resembling Facebook's "like" button. Also this year, an Israeli couple named their baby girl after Facebook's "Like" button. On the other hand, an Egyptian couple went even further and named their daughter "Facebook," according to the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram. — TJD, GMA News
