After the brewing controversy over releasing user info to third party companies, Facebook has FINALLY upgraded their privacy settings.The new settings are supposed to make it easy for one to control who sees certain elements of their profile and they will prevent user info from being leaked. Some of the changes are great while others are a tad shady. We now have the option of controlling weather or not our profiles are indexed by public search engines (i.e. google, bing, etc.) . Users also now have to enter their password when changing privacy settings. This change is a little iffy. I just changed some of my settings and no password was required. I guess they’re still working out the kinks on that one. Also, Facebook is giving users the ultimate control of who sees what on their profile. Got pictures of you having too much fun at the bar? Now you can control who sees your fun times at Thirsty Thursdays. You can actually single out people so that they don’t see certain things. This applies to statuses, notes, and anything else you can think of. The age of people loosing their jobs over Facebook has now ENDED!
Finally, the worst change of them all: Facebook is making it virtually impossible to controls weather or not we want others to see our profile pictures, fan pages, friends list, and a plethora of other things. This doesn’t sit well with many people seeing as though this is one of the main this that we should be able to control.
Now that it’s all said and done, are you happy with the new changes over on the Book of Faces? Comment below.
Since the release of Apple’s iPad last month, the tech world has been buzzing. Many people wonder if this new gadget is worth buying.
So lets go over specifics, the iPad is a touch screen tablet that allows one to do pretty much do anything (i.e. surf the internet, watch movies, check email etc) . But to be totally honest, I would never buy this! Well, let me rephrase, I wouldn’t buy it now. Why? It’s pretty simple, anyone in their right mind knows that you shouldn’t buy anything that’s labeled “first generation.” You’ll be setting yourself up for a lot of glitches and you’ll realize that the 2.0 version couldn’t come out fast enough.
But that’s besides the point, the main reason why I would probably never buy the iPad is because I could just go out and buy a computer for the same amount of money. For 800 bucks I could buy a brand new computer with most of the same features and feel a lot better about my purchase in the long run. As far as the design world is concerned, HP already had a touch screen computer under its belt. So I guess Apple is just catching up…
