Well isn’t this just the most hypocritical thing I’ve seen all week.
Seems that Marc Andreeson, one of the brains behind NCSA Mosaic and its successor Netscape Navigator, is working on a new web browser dubbed RockMelt. With its integrated social networking features, RockMelt claims to be “Your Browser, Re-Imagined.”
First, I don’t want my browser re-imagined.

When will these Facebook users learn?
Pretty much anything you see or hear along the lines of “Don’t do this / don’t do that / this person is trying to get you” is NOT true.

Please leave me out of it.

No, I don’t need a second chicken [...]
I’ve been seeing this question popping up again and again.
“What is the # sign in front of people’s names on Facebook?” (Also called a “pound symbol” or “sharp sign.”
It’s what’s called a “hash-tag,” and it’s used to “tag” certain topics on the popular social networking website Twitter.
The thing is, Facebook doesn’t support [...]

A recent Facebook hoax reads like this:
IMPORTANT No joke! Apparently multiple people have had a hacker. I tried this and yes he was listed on mine too. The way to find them is to go into your settings, privacy settings, block list, and in the “person” box, type “automation log.” If someone pops up, block [...]
I’m posting this tip because it took me forever to figure out how to remove myself from being a “Fan” of something or other on Facebook.
