I wish I had a thread for NOT interesting...

Facebook will include advertising
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/igeneration/facebook-news-feed-ads-how-many-is-too-many/13957

I'm finding the world of android smart phones and free apps having adverts NOT interesting.

I have been looking for a good weather app that doesn't take up acres of screen space (without ads). So far no joy.

Quote from: KrebsonSecurity
In many ways, the technology behind the site merely recreates in a publicly searchable way what the entertainment industry has been doing for years: It tracks and records information that users share when they download and upload files on public peer-to-peer file-trading networks. But the free service does have the potential to make people think twice about downloading pirated movies, games and music, because it shows how easily this information can be discovered and archived.

I wish it was going to be that warm here. Check this out:

We did have a semi white Christmas. It snowed Christmas day and left about a half inch on the ground.

That looks like a useful site. Personally, I guess I'm lucky being 63 and not taking any prescription medications. I've never even taken a prescription pain killer. I had a scrip for Vicodin once but I never filled it. One or two Ibuprofen did the trick just fine. Many new wonder drugs wind up having disastrous side effects. Like the acne drug that wound up destroying young people's colons. When you listen to the commercials sometimes it's like "And doctors really prescribe this stuff?". The one that really gets me is the asthma medication that says it can INCREASE the possibility of asthma related death.
