To close, or not to close, that is the question:
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The abuse and venom of outrageous customers,
Or to take the armchair and sit in front of TV,
And by doing that losing customers: to die, to work
you choose; and by working, to say we
turnup and do more than just sit there.
'Tis a consumerisation gone mad......


Okay, poor effort.. ..tis the silly season after all.

I couldn't have put it better myself - enjoy!

Not every year and if you're still pondering the details are here

Interesting concept, having read your "About Us" page still not clear how the concept will work in reality?

Have you had any formal acceptance of this approach from the Internet regualtors, such as ICANN or ISOC or any other authorative body?

If not, it may worth seeing if you can interlock with somebody that way to help get the concept off the ground.

Maybe there's a business opportunity!!


Amazing?

Santa's watching? Yikes!

As an update, it is only 15 months later, I went ahead with the repairs, and it's been fine ever since! Hoping it stays that way...

If Mark Zuckerberg's "private" photos can be got anybody's can...

BBC News - Facebook bug sees Zuckerberg pictures posted online

It shows the importance of being selective in sharing photos online (on any website), even if you think you're sharing to a select few of your friends.

Hurrah!! About time we had some decent rants!

I must say, I've always thought the Royal Mail were great but in the last year the postal system seems to have somewhat deteriorated. Though some of the missing parcels I've had have been posted overseas so I don't know if they've gone missing in Royal Mails hand or some other foreign postal company...


So, Virtually Mary could have a Virtual Address. Does that mean you'll only be able to have Virtual time off?

Well I still find it interesting to know how Facebook will make it into a money making machine...

As the article says, can it turn 800m users into a $100bn business? It states that "it's the ultimate "sticky" site, with users spending much longer on it per session - about 30 minutes on average - than people do on Google. That's more time to see and respond to ads".

Okay, but I've never clicked on a facebook ad, but I have clicked on Google ads. When you go to search on Google you're after something information/product/service so you will potentially click on an advert. I'm not looking for any service/product when on Facebook so unlikely to click an ad. They do sum it up as "demand fulfilment ads - Google's speciality - and demand generation ads, which she sees as Facebook's strength". and I guess if Facebook is to have advertising revenue of $3bn this year advertisers must be seeing a return.

..or have I missed something obvious? I guess if you've got 800million users you only needs a certain percentage to be clicking through to be earning some good bucks!
