Osama Bin Laden’s Last Facebook Post

We all know how addictive Facebook and Twitter can be.

And we have all heard the reports that Bin Laden’s million dollar mansion in Pakistan didn’t have internet or phones.

But CIA Chief Leon Panetta has said that in addition to several laptops and hard drives there were a number of prepaid cell phones seized from the compound.

After a team of experts began sorting through his browser history, Farmville requests, and hash tag Tweets, they found an interesting piece of evidence.

They found Osama Bin Laden’s last Facebook post.


Maybe Facebook really is a tool developed in secret by the U.S. Government to spy on us.

MySpace Up For Sale – News Corp Asking $100 Million – Deal by End of Week?

Every now and then you see something that really hits home and makes you realize that an end of an era is upon us.

And so it is with the once dominating social network MySpace.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting that News Corp has put MySpace.com up for sale with an asking price of $100 million.

Expectations are that about a dozen companies will express an interest in buying the now shrinking network.

News Corp paid $585 million back in 2005 when MySpace was dominating the internet by adding over 1 million new users a day. But today, Facebook has all but made MySpace obsolete and irrelevant.

After a big push last year to redesign the site and add a focus on music and entertainment failed to stop users from jumping to Facebook, News Corp decided it was time to sell.

Several venture capital and investment firms have indicated they may be interested in buying the property, and Bebo has also said the may bid on the site.

Regardless of who steps up to the plate, we should know who the new owner is by the end of the week.

But that still leaves one big question.

What will the new owners do differently that the old owners didn’t already try?

Stay tuned.

Justin Bieber vs Onion Ring

Just when you thought there was not enough competition in this world, Facebook has announced a new campaign - to get more fans for an onion ring then You Tube and pop music sensation Justin Bieber.

The "Can this onion ring get more fans than Justin Bieber" Facebook page just started today and already has close to two million fans.

Now, we realize this is not an exact science, or a perfect set of quantitative data necessary to extrapolate the merging of some cosmic science. We like to think of it more like a shifting of our most basic ideals and internal desires.

After all, Bieber has only been on the scene for two years, but the onion ring has been around forever - quietly satisfying our deepest carnal desires and providing comfort in the form of unhealthy fatty calories.

Justin Bieber? Not so much.

But now it makes us wonder where this will stop - who will be next?

Obama, Conan O'Brien, Jay Leno? There really is no way of stopping this craze - it is destined to make its way through our space, but will soon be a distant memory.

An onion ring. Really?

Facebook


You've probably already seen this, really just wanted to post one of the all seeing eye images I can't get enough of, which I found on the BBC illustrating it's mind control purposes somewhat (in a symbolic way). I will not list the issues I have with facebook (infinite really), it'll poke your damn eye out and split your face/mind no doubts about it ^^. Pretty good (mainstream) article here too. A spokesman for the CIA said: "Facebook is a very good peer-to-peer marketing tool," from this link.
