I was just on my Facebook page, editing my “applications” because when I signed up recently I got into the game of the thing and before I realized it I had nearly thirty of them! As if that wasn’t enough, When adding them, I neglected to un-check the box that tells them NOT to [...]

I am not a hamster but lately Facebook has been making me feel like I’m in a giant hamster wheel. Loading profiles isn’t too bad but the “applications” can get to be horrendously slow… as in click on something and then go set up the capresso coffee machine and brew a pot. Then [...]
