Facebook has added to my facepuppet profile

June 23, 2010
So I am cruising around Facebook wasting time. I know people who could waste less time while loitering.

I get back to my profile and see Facebook has posted I like Printing. They must have done that from when I searched Printing. How does Facebook know I LIKE Printing. Wow am I glad I did not search terrorist bombing.

I will have to be careful as I have set my privacy settings to zero ... Facebook gave me a little green thumbs up for that.

Still waiting for Google to try to get on my friend list.

June 23, 2010
I have been asked how it will be possible to maintain this blog? Well how I see it is, I only want to ride this into the Meltdown of Facebook, Then nobody will talk about Facebook anymore. It is articles like these that peak my Interest for this blog.

Not surprisingly, Facebook's half-hearted attempts to kick its data-sharing addiction have not exactly wowed the privacy cognoscenti. Last week a consortium of groups -- including the ACLU, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and the Privacy R...

Lots Of Reasons To Hate Facebook

June 22, 2010
This article really had me laughing ... this guy Ryan tells it well.

Facebook, I absolutely fucking despise it, the whole idea of its existence is one which makes me feel sick to the stomach. The very mention of its name by somebody, anybody, first thing in the morning makes me want to puke on my Shreddies. It was great at first, a tool for getting in touch with old friends, until you become hooked and begin to despise it. But you know that you can't delete the bleeding thing because you would...

Demise of Myspace - Success of Facebook?

June 22, 2010
This article is from Ben Racicot - EzineArticles.com Expert Author

July 2006. My MySpace was pretty cool. I spent some time figuring out HTML and a great background image! I was so cool... Until my stupid brother hacked it and turned it entirely homosexual. Sounds funny and it was. Remember MySpace when it first began in 03? Very different.

In July 2005 MySpace was bought for $580 mil. by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation. Turned out to be a good investment for Murdoch, on August 8, 2006, searc...

It is too funny how the twitter ticker on this blog is full of people tweeting about quitting Facebook

June 22, 2010
I have still yet to see even one meaningful tweet ... really how long do they think people will go for this stuff. I find it completely comical that every business in America has jumped on this wagon. Nobody is following any tweets. Actually that is not true - I tweeted Quit Facebook www.facepuppet.com and sure enough I saw my own tweet scroll by on this website.
I may not be the only one to do that ... an excellent time suck,

I am still un-decided as to which is more of a complete Time Waste ....

The demise of Facebook; it seems like a rather "out there" thought don't you think?  Well according to leading internet/tech industry site TechCrunch, Facebook's future is certainly in limbo.

As of late, the site is reporting major financial woes that comes as no surprise with the current ...
