Facebook plans to add friend location information as soon as next month, reports The New York Times Bits blog today.

A sanctuary in cyberspace, but every love story ends. (Facebooooook.....) Why'd you have to go and lose your exclusivity? Now all my nightmares have come true... my mom just friended me! Since she joined she spends all her time checking my news feed. My interests are no longer bubble butts and sticky weed. She whacked my ass on Mafia Wars and Flixtered "You've Got Mail." She washed the colors with the whites and posted "laundry fail" ('cause now)... CHORUS My mom's on Facebook. She found a new way to nag me. My mom's on Facebook. Comments whenever friends tag me. My mom's on Facebook. She only got it to stalk me. My mom's on Facebook. My childhood photos cock-block me. My wall is not for e-mail, mom, you'll never get it right. And gifting me some sexy lips don't mean a kiss goodnight. She keeps on adding all my friends, they just think she's a joke... except for Steve who says that she's a mom he'd like to poke. (She's a MILP!) Mama read my 25 Things and each and every note. Now she knows I lost a bet and had to wax my scrote. Suggests new pages every day from "hugs" to "Will and Grace." It's getting to the point <b>...</b>
