Facebook Adds More Privacy Controls For Public Opening

“Last week we asked you guys what privacy controls you thought were necessary for the upcoming expansion. We read all of your suggestions and we have built these controls:

• Hide yourself from all people in a type of network (e.g. people only in a region, high schoolers) in searches.
• Prevent people in those networks from messaging, poking and adding you as a friend.
• Control whether your picture shows up in your search listing.

These controls are all under the Search section of the My Privacy page. As always, please send us feedback here.”

Well it’s actually gonna happen they are opening Facebook to the public.  Now we just play the waiting game.

Internet Worse For Grades Than Alcohol?

This article poses the question is the Internet worse for grades than alcohol? I now pose the question how could someone make it through college without alcohol and the Internet? From personal experience my college career would of been a lot more stressful and tougher without both. Consider all the college students who pass classes by never writing a single word of their own in a essay. Without the Internet this would be a extremely difficult task. Students might actually have to learn something. With the abcense of alcohol, god-bless it, parties would be lame, ugly girls would never have sex with guys and vice versa. It could be argued without the Internet and alcohol college enrollment would drop dramatically.
