If you're like me you remember the good ol' days of Facebook when it was a social network for college students and only college students. Those days are long gone as Zuckerberg and Co. opened the gates to anyone and built up one of the largest social networks on the internet. With the influx of Facebook users over the years, you've no doubt ru...
When it comes to Facebook activity, any seasoned veteran will tell you that the most difficult choice you have to make after logging in isn't what pictures to de-tag, what girls from home to poke, or what applications to add (ironically, adding "Are YOU Interested?" will actually make girls less interested in you). First impressions, both in re...
Facebook statuses say a lot about a person. Your level of coolness is directly related to that handful of words behind your name on your profile.
Are you nursing a hangover indicating your amazing ability to party hard? Are you off playing a macho sport and showing off your buffness and athletic ability? Are you supporting your politician p...
If your contacts list is looking a little drab these days and you happen to be a Facebook fiend, you should really check out the iPhone app, Photo Phonebook. There's something really satisfying about having a photo display when someone calls you. Of course, this is something phones have been doing for years but there's something about the way th...
Back in December, Facebook came under fire for removing pictures of young mothers breastfeeding their children, claiming that such photographs violated the site’s Terms of Service.
While Facebook made it clear that breastfeeding was officially banned, they remained a bit vague and tight-lipped on the subject of nipples in general.
Naturally,...
When Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook, he was just a nerdy little guy at Harvard. Well, he's still a nerdy little guy, but one who has attracted millions to his social networking site. With the sheer number of people signed on to Facebook, there's bound to be all types. But I'm pretty sure that the obscene wallposts written by this anonymous Fac...
In the age of online social networking, our personal lives have become increasingly more transparent to the outside world—whether we like it or not.
On Facebook, the friend feed, the ever-expanding thread outlining your friends’ online activities, allows us to keep tabs on everyone we know with minimal effort. If someone enters into a relation...
When stars aren’t off canoodling or drinking and driving, they’re making their publicists cringe, one sentence at a time.
Jennifer Aniston has been feisty lately. She talked to Entertainment Weekly recently and gave us not one but two excellent sound bites. Regarding the constant pregnancy rumors, she said that it’s almost going to take the f...
Earlier in the semester I wrote an article about Facebook and it generated quite a bit of buzz. I tried (unsuccessfully) to ween myself off of Facebook. It lasted for about a month, and then I felt left out and went crawling back.
I still have a lot of the same issues with the website, but I'm learning to deal with it; however, the one thing ...
Here in the U.S. we know Katy Perry as that “I Kissed a Girl” girl and Lily Allen as that British Britney-Spears-esque mess. But across the pond, they are bona fide pop stars who really don’t like each other.
The latest battle began when Perry referred to herself as “a skinnier version of Lily Allen.” You don’t call Lils fat and get away with ...
For a while now, it’s seemed like the filth was contained to MySpace and that Facebook could continue skipping merrily down its wholesome, rainbowed path of social networking glee. Now, however, a new virus called the Koobface, is kicking false Facebook confidence to the curb.
Reports circulated today about a virulent pie...
For decades, stodgy conservatists have argued that breastfeeding in public was completely unacceptable. However, time and time again, the government has sided with the liberals, enacting several laws to protect a woman’s right to breastfeed on federal and public property.
Now, the great debate rages on in the digital age with Facebook, MySpace...
First, Facebook encroached on our privacy with the implementation of the all-seeing, all-knowing friend feed. Then, they introduced Facebook chat, which was little more than a direct means for would-be stalkers to contact us and know when we’re perusing the website. And soon, they will use our private data to help companies gear marketing survey...
According to the Confederation of British Industry, Facebook is public enemy #1 for office administrators around the globe.
For the uninitiated, the CBI is a lobbying group that operates on the behalf of employers in England. Their concern, first and foremost, is with minimizing the number of government-issued hurdles employers have to jump ov...
We put our entire lives on Facebook – it’s a place for party pics, emo statuses and sometimes heated political discussions. But even among the usual heated political discussions, the current conflict between Israel and Gaza has proven too hot for Mark Zuckerberg.
In the last few days, Facebook has been accused of censoring posts about the clas...
The economy may be underwater, but at least someone’s doing well. Facebook membership is increasing nearly exponentially these days, with almost 600,000 new users a day. Yeah, that’s a lot.
A good 70% of the increase comes from outside the US, as social networking catches on around the globe. And the other 30% is from people finally realizing t...
In a recent interview with BusinessWeek, Michael Wolff, the tell-all author of the Rupert Murdoch biography, had some choice words about MySpace users.
He said: I don’t think that’s true. I think it is--if you’re on MySpace now, you’re a [expletive] cretin. And you’re not only a [expletive] cretin, but you’re poor. Nobody who has beyond an 8th...
If you thought unwanted friend requests were irritating, imagine logging into Facebook to find a poke from a lawyer that’s accompanied by a summons to appear in court.
Last Friday, the Australian Capital Territory Supreme Court approved lawyer Mark McCormack’s request to use Facebook to serve a summons to Gordon Poyser and Carmel Corbo, a coup...
