Facebook: All Your Stuff is Ours, Even if You Quit
and
Facebook’s New Terms of Service: “We Can Do Anything We Want With Your Content. Forever.” - As both posts note, a small, but important change has been made in Facebook’s Terms of Service. The TOS says Facebook has permission to use, copy, publish, etc., any user-generated content (anything you post), and that license expires if you remove the content from the site. Not so any more. That last phrase about the license expiring if the content is now gone.

National Post reporter has total Twitter melt down – This is incredible. Another example of what NOT to do on Twitter.

50 Best Web sites of 2008 – I get photogalleries – meaning, I understand they’re a great way to convey information – and they bring in the page views. But when you have a gallery that loads awkwardly – at least on my browser and screen – it’s difficult to get past #9. I’ll have to try this on a larger screen.

10 Essential sites – A good group of sites in theory, but it’s too easily to criticize this gallery. It’s not a bad group, but I think the description of Facebook is odd: If MySpace is a PC, then Facebook is a Mac.

The Social Media Starter Kit: LinkedIn – Now this is something I don’t see often on social news sites, but I can appreciate. Good, solid information about how to make the most of, and be smart on LinkedIn. Definitely worth a read.
