Of course, some people tend to argue that Twitter is more of a micro-blogging service rather than a social network. IMO, the follower – following relationships in Twitter represents as good an approach for social networking as the friends – fans approach on Facebook. Twitter came into limelight much after Facebook and has been a major revelation ever since it’s inception. Facebook Group 'Praying' For President Obama's Death Passes 1 Mi.

Derrière la mort d’un détenu, les failles des prisons suisses. La nuit du 11 mars, S.V. est mort asphyxié à la prison de Bochuz après avoir mis le feu à son matelas, et à cause de la lenteur des secours.
Plusieurs enquêtes sont ouvertes, la classe politique vaudoise se déchire et les courriers de lecteurs débordent d’injures. Jean-Pierre Restellini, membre du Comité européen contre la torture et président de la Commission suisse contre la torture, commente brutalement : « Ce drame m’attriste parce qu’il s’inscrit dans ce qui devait se passer et, malheureusement, je ne crois pas que ce sera le dernier. » Cette nuit-là, suite à un différend avec les gardiens, S.V. a mis le feu à son matelas. Pour des raisons qui restent à déterminer, les secours auraient tardé (entre trente à quatre-vingts dix minutes selon les versions), et ce détenu de 30 ans (dont douze années passées en prison) est mort asphyxié dans sa cellule du quartier de haute sécurité des Etablissements de la plaine de l’Orbe (Vaud).

What do you see? A coffee mug, a book, some papers, a picture on the wall, your calendar, pens… Just a bunch of normal, everyday stuff. Look again. See how many objects and items have words on them. The ad copy on a box of CDs. It’s amazing how many words surround us all the time. Words are everywhere. All these words are there for a reason. But we only notice a fraction of these words. The words might as well not even exist. Think about it. Now imagine the web copy on your site. And that copy is a lot more important than the features on that box of CDs. Your web copy can’t afford the same passive indifference. You can’t wing it. So why are you letting your readers treat your web copy with the same indifference as the copy on that box of CDs on your desk? Don’t wait until they just happen to notice you. The most important part of that sentence? Five Questions From The "Statusphere"
Does Facebook Really Want a Semantic Web? Two weeks ago, Facebook has announced a major new initiative called Facebook Open Graph.
This is an attempt to not only re-imagine Facebook, but in a lot of ways, an attempt to re-define how the Web works. We wrote in details about the implications of this move for all interested parties. A big part of the announcement is Facebook's vision of a consumer Semantic Web. In this new world, publishers have an incentive to annotate pages by marking up activities, events, people, movies, books, music and more. The proper markup, would in turn, lead to a much more interconnected Web - people would be connected with each other across websites and around the things they are interested in.
Directionally, this vision is both correct and important. "Instead, it appears that semantics is an afterthought in the race to capture user identity and information, in exchange for sending publishers the traffic. " Wikipedia Now Lets You Order Printed Books. Wikipedia's launching a new feature for English readers: The ability to create custom books from Wikipedia's huge bank of free content.
Because of the way Wikipedia's images and copy are licensed, they're free for anyone to access, use and share in this way. PediaPress is a book publisher for wiki content; it's in a long-term business relationship with Wikipedia to print these books. PediaPress now offers paperbacks and will soon add hardcover books to its catalog, as well.
The price of each book varies, depending on the number of pages; paperbacks start at $8.90. Users can also simply download a PDF of the "books" they create. The book-creating tools are built into the website. Infosecurity (USA) - Facebook under fire for stealth app install. The problem appears to stem from Facebook's ability to add secret applications to members profiles – which then interact with other users and even off Facebook systems – without users even knowing about it.
Perhaps worse, Infosecurity notes, there is no real easy way to stop this from happening. Usually, if a piece of software or unknown application is installed on your home or office computer, it is considered to be malware. The problem facing the Facebook user community is whether these stealth install apps could be considered malware. According to newswire reports, the situation is compounded by the issue that the on-Facebook apps can interact with other web sessions open in other browser windows on users' PCs.
The feature that has been added is part of Facebook's new sharing features and tools, which integrates Facebook into other related news, and flash game websites such as the Washington Post and CNET.

Want to force anyone on Twitter to follow you (yes, even the wondrous Mr. Fry)? There's a hack for that, and it's damned simple. The thing is, it looks like it's kinda, sorta, maybe broken Twitter...and everyone has zero followers.
