I worked for Digital and we had a company wide Notes File where each subject had it's own audience. Sports, Sex, Work, Religion...

We got the internet in 86

the depressing fact is that out of the zillions friends that I have in real life, I can think of up to max 10 people who don't have facebook.

I recently deleted my facebook account. I can't believe how much I'm enjoying not having it. The longer I don't have it the more I realise how badly it was affecting me.

my friends are also on the internets a lot. they may not do exactly what i do on the internet, but pretty close. we all are heavily on facebook and communicate that way most of the time.

in the early days of the internet, you mostly had to stay within your ISP. it took too long to do anything else... and there wasn't much of anything else.

Sorry, but the sexiness of hacking decreases at the rate at which technology advances.

I love that line in Kill Bill Vol.1 when Uma Thurman meets for the first time Hattori Hanzo in the sushi bar.

Hattori asks Uma if she's English, and she replies with "almost". That line is as priceless as one of Hattori Hanzo's swords.

automatic bzooty 10.01.2009 03:43 PM

yes.

if not more.

Most are on more...and that's scary. Netspeak is now firmly entrenched in our vocabulary.

Satan 10.01.2009 04:51 PM
