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...
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...
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...
Apparently now, colleges nationawide are now looking at applicants' social-networking profiles, such as Facebook and Myspace, to determine their qualifications for acceptance. How wack is that!
500 top colleges were surveyed by a education company, Kaplan, and it was found that 10% of admissions officers used social-networking sites to evalu...
As social networking continues to pervade our everyday lives, Tom and Zuckerberg add more and more applications to dominate our time. Many of these are pretty ground-breaking and convenient for ‘virtual’ life navigation. However, there are quite a few ideas that either social network would be wise to hop on. I won’t even sue for theft of intelle...
MySpace better watch its ass. Rumor has it Facebook may be nipping at MySpace’s heels with its own possible digital-music deal.
Not that Mark Zuckerberg would never be a simple copycat (those connectU guys that sued him might have something to say about that, though). So, the Facebook service will surely differ from MySpace’s which launched l...
I’m not sure how I feel about MyDebates.org. It’s MySpace’s way of trying to get its users involved in the political process, which is commendable, but then again it’s MySpace, so I’m always skeptical of anything they do.
Fortunately the site is designed much better than MySpace, and its user interface is silky smooth. Yes, it’s one of the most...
The impact of online social networks on real world interaction is a sociological phenomenon that will surely be studied for years to come. The most recent revelation though, you might have been able to guess: narcissists use Facebook (and MySpace) for self-promotion, as recently proven in a study by UGA researchers.
"We found that people who a...
MySpace is great for a lot of things. New bands get to showcase their music, models and actresses get noticed, and older men get to hit on underage girls with pretty much zero repercussions. But besides these staples of the site, MySpace can be creatively employed by others to suit their own means. In the case of the five men behind “Kegheadz,” ...
Nobody is crazy about facebook chat. Have you ever been writing on somebody's wall when "Hey buddy? how was class?" or "Hey man, what are you up to?" suddenly pops up?
Facebook has found a way to make the most invasive tool in communication history. Facebook chat is like having to answer every call you get. Calls, aim, and emails are avoidable...
Wouldn’t it be great if your job included massive amounts of time on Facebook and MySpace? And I don’t just mean sneaking it in when the boss isn’t looking. I mean full-on, company encouraged internet stalking.
Well, join the CIA and FBI, and you could do just that. Ok, well maybe not exactly that. And certainly not only that. But these super-...
Sandwiched between your friendship requests and your poke from that creepy guy down the hall, you may find something a little more ominous.
Colleges like University of Maryland and UCLA are working on projects that use Facebook and MySpace to keep students in the loop when it comes to emergencies.
The Chronicle of Higher Education explains:...
In case there weren’t enough bells and whistles attached to Facebook and Myspace, a new service called Project Playlist, is offering a free online playlist program that enables users to stream music to their social networking accounts.

According to The New York Times, Manhattan lawyer Roy Den Hollander, harbinger of death for feminism a self-proclaimed anti-feminist, is suing Columbia over their women’s studies course.
In his suit, Den Hollander claims:
“[Women’s studies] is a bastion of bigotry against men… [and it] demonizes men and exalts women in order to justify discr...
Social networks like Myspace and Facebook have completely renovated the way our generation communicates. The opium of Generation Y, Facebook and Myspace have both equally become addictive and manipulative tools to pimp our new college images and social lives to those once ethereal high school prom queens and heart throbs.
Two years ago, Faceb...

Yes, everyone thinks their group of "fabulous" and "fierce" friends are candidates for the next wave of Sex & the City. Even Miley Cyrus wants a piece, with the teen posting pictures of her and her prepubescent, training bra-clad friends in risque situations.
This is a sample of Miley getting her game face on for her

Nick Rose, who's part of the indie band Sweet Thing based in Canada, hasn't been too focused on his solo efforts, yet the neglected project has set off a soft spark. Rose's solo sound is different from the musical offerings of Sweet Thing, in fact, it's vastly different; think sitting on a back porch on a hot Sunday afternoon watching the conden...
