Facebook Friend Rankings

Rank your friends. That's the revolutionary idea I've sold to Facebook for literally $25.60. Watching the Australian Open Tennis, the idea of player rankings is clearly useful not just in sport but in social networks. Imagine how inspired your Facebook friends would be to impress you if they knew a surprise gift or an unexpected hug could improve their ranking. You'd never neglect a distant acquaintance again if they ranked you in their top ten. How much more civil would our society become if all our relationships were classified in this way?

And not only are friends incentivised to be more obsequious, it makes it so much easier when planning party invitations. If you have space for 20, then merely select your top 20.

So simple and yet so stupid. All in one idea.
