Taking every Facebook friend for coffee
Updated | By Olivia Phalaetsile

That is exactly what an Australian student is busy doing. And he reckons it might take him up to three years to work through all 1000+ of his Facebook friends.
Matt Kulesza, who started the effort last month, calls it "an exercise in remembering to socialize with and get to know people" outside of the social network.
"I plan to have a one-on-one coffee with every single one of my 1000+ Facebook ‘friends’ over the space of the next three years, or as long as it takes to complete," Kulesza wrote on a Tumblr documenting each coffee date.
"I obviously don’t have 1,000 real-life friends" ” the 28-year-old told news.com.au.
"The point of the project is to see who these people actually are and get to know them."
So far, Kulesza has had coffee with 29 of his 1,088 friends on Facebook.
And the project has already paid off for Kulesza: He landed a part-time job through one of his encounters.
"I’ve known [my new boss] for quite a few years and she was one of my early ‘coffees,’" he explained. "She was looking for someone to do some part-time work, and said, ‘Why don’t you work for me?’"
