Ear Piercing’s and iPads at WalMart Hmmmmm…

lkontzias — Thu, 13 May 2010 20:50:44 +0000

Ok, I was just checking out the article saying that iPads will probably be for sale in WalMart soon. But the picture in the article cracked me up! I did not know you could get ear piercings at WalMart. Is this for real?! Even funnier is a kid is getting one while mom is watching. I just never thought about buying an electronic device and then getting my ears pierced at WalMart. I wonder what other types of piercings they do there?! http://www.intomobile.com/2010/05/13/wal-mart-may-start-selling-ipad-soon.html

Good article for Facebook users.

Here’s a quick run down on what you should not do on FB. I can tell you there are tons of kids that I know as young as 8 that have a page. They don’t even have privacy settings. I don’t know about that, can’t be good. Anyways, check out the article.

This is great, Hugo is not only tweeting now, but he wants his buddy Fidel Castro to tweet too. Good thing I speak Spanish so that when I have nothing better to do I will read Hugo’s tweets!

Tweets will become part of the Library of Congress

lkontzias — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 03:42:57 +0000

Times do change. The Library of Congress will now be archiving billions of tweets. It will be a big task to sort and archive all this information. I really just hope they don’t keep any of Hugo Chavez’es tweets. Check out the article.

Oh Boy, Hugo Chavez is going to start to “tweet”.
