Porn and Facebook

Seems to be an item on the list of things-to-do of The King it seems. Remember, he had such a campaign for preventing drugs as well, called Mathata Thitha (මතට තිත), some time back? Now what would he name this one though? I can come up with half a dozen names, only none of them can be written here. Perhaps language experts should get to work right now.

Anyway, what made me talk about Porn is, well, the lack of people's interest in it - at least on the net. Some years back, "sex" used to be the most searched keyword on internet search engines. Now it hardly features on even the top ten. Back in the day, remember how many porn related emails you got? I just realized that I haven't got one in ages, really. I don't remember the last time I got one, come to think of it. Are people losing interest on sex, or is it that they are getting too much of it that they don't want to go looking for it on the internet? Looking at the population crisis we're facing these days, I'd think it's the latter.

FB wall is a cool thing, ain't it? I like it. Yes, whenever a friend takes up a stupid quiz or plays a stupid game, them appearing on your wall is a bit of a pain, but there are ways to get rid of them. If you're a Firefox user, here is a very easy way, just check it out. I've been using it, and since then my FB wall is pretty clear and looks nice. Now, once you get rid of all that useless quizzes and stuff, the wall is quite useful in my opinion. It's a great news source, for one. I'm usually quite updated in most of the current affairs and stuff, but still with work and all you don't always get time to read news all the time. But a quick look at the FB wall have proven to be quite useful, time and again. When they changed the look of FB some time back, a lot of people were quite quick (I think that's the first time ever I wrote two consecutive words starting with Q) to bitch about it. I didn't, and I was happy to wait and see. Now I think it's quite cool. Also, I'm not that big on Twitter. For me, it sucks. FB is far cooler. Also, you can post pics, videos, links and messages. All in one, and I love it.

Have you watched Harry Potter? What a stupid question. Anyway, that disapperating and apperating thing is cool, isn't it? Just imagine the possibilities, what you could do, with that power. What would I not give to have it!

  1. you should also try Facebook lite (lite.facebook.com)... it's a new interface facebook is testing and I love it... :D

    after getting used to twitter I found the regular facebook pretty cluttered and useless (or had too much useless information on it...) twitter was a more direct way of communicating, and services like twitpic, tinypaste etc. can be used to make twitter even more useful... :)

    also: apperating is awesome! :D wouldn't it be brilliant to just disappear in the middle of a boring conversation or something? ;) lol

    I have used it a bit, but can't say I like it much. Perhaps I'll wait a bit more until a more developed version come out.

    @LD
    Hmm... cloak would be useful, so is the map!

    @PJ
    Err... saying thank you is appropriate, I assume?
