Its peoples online false identities that worries people.

Yes, Facebook is public - it's the same as putting up a poster on a notice board saying that you hate your work and then signing your name on it. I do not have a problem integrating social networking and work. Partly because I'm not someone who goes out getting drunk or taking drugs, so I don't have some kind of secret home life that I need to hide. I also don't expect that a social network is a private conversation between friends, so I only post things that I would like an acquaintance of me to know. It's a cross between an advertising board for me as a brand, and a way of keeping up with what other people I know are doing. As an example, I am a student landlord and each year I get new tenants to live with me. Apart from getting a recommendation from the previous tenants, the new potential tenants can (and do) also look at my Facebook profile to see that I have friends and am a normal person... Adding to previous: A college representative came to my school recently to talk about applying to colleges. He mentioned that last year alone they rejected 4-5 people solely on their facebook and myspace pages. So yes, things posted on your facebook/myspace can and will be held against you. I heard the same thing, three years ago when I was still a senior in high school. You just have to be smart about what you put up for people to see, and have your privacy settings set correctly.

Even if that dilution involves keeping in contact with people living far away? Right there is the key reason why I still have myspace. I'm grew up in Washington, and now current go to school in Arizona so keeping in contact with friends back home is much easier with facebook and myspace. Otherwise I'd probably lose contact of most of the people I still talk to back home. I feel that people just need to learn how to balance their "real" life's with their virtual life's and most certainly not having their virtual life's be their dominate social interaction.

I've disliked everything Treyarch has developed.

I feel like because social networking has become so popular that its just something we have to learn to put up with. I have teachers/ ASU faculty asked to be my friends on facebook and I also got put into that situation where you can't really reject their request when you have to see them on a regular bases. With facebook though, you can set your privacy so they can't see certain things on your profile which is nice when you have pictures and information you don't want everyone to see.

If only that was practical.

Wow, they need to do something about their servers. I left the site running for 3 hours and I got down to 2,000 queue and somehow I got thrown back to 16,000. I was so pissed.

That was funny, and to make it even better WALL-E won.

I got on for about 10 minutes to try it out. It was pretty fun, I'll probably play it some more later after I finish some things I need to get done. My username is VespineFlyer.

Well considering you aren't really thinking out why homeless people end up where they do... A lot of them can't afford an education, military vets, and a lot of them had horrible lives to begin with. Not everything in life is controlled, and not everyone can live the life's most of us can. I'm in the middle about homeless people, because some of them do it to themselves but others who never had the opportunities that many of us have, I do feel sorry for.

Then why kill her at all? Why not have her stunned, and taken captive. Then Matt would have the motivation to free her. There was no need to make it appear that she was dead, and then show her alive. In all honesty all they showed us was Daphne getting shot and laying unconscious. No one actually declares her dead, besides Parkman who left in a hurry to save his own life. There is also one thing about this show that can't be overlooked, nothing is ever what it seems.

Oh wow you weren't lying. 13k+ in the queue right now... I may come back and try it out later this week when the servers aren't busy..

so much quoting for no reason... All I ask for is something great, 4 player co-op offline, and a great online/ offline experience. That's all I need.

I do agree, Parkman should have used his powers to stop the soldiers from coming in. I really don't understand why he didn't. Also, I do feel that Sylar has had the strongest story line in the series but it was kind of nice not being thrown around from character to character.

:thumbup: Grew up playing Mortal Kombat. Now a days, its all about dat Street Fighter! :D

They aren't to bad, and for what they are being used for. All you really have to see is a human shaped object roaming around or whatever or a vehicle and report it. For their purpose I think they are pretty good.

My favorite moment was Ben Stiller pretending to be Joaquin Phoenix. Hilarious impersonation. :thumbup:

That was a pretty neat story, liked it better before I read it was a chain letter..

I used to be really big into SNES roms back in like middle school. I don't think there is anything wrong with the use of roms and emulators, because a lot of the content that you get you can't find anywhere else. I'm sure if there was an easier way to obtain the content through a legal way they would. Its almost like pirating TV shows and movies, you don't do it so much because its free but because its easy to obtain and with services like Hulu creating easy and legal ways to obtain the shows and movies you want to watch people our going to use those options raither then downloading illegally. When it all comes right down to it is accessibility.

Yes, I thought this was a great episode. Possibly my favorite so far this season, hopefully the rest of the season is at the quality of tonight's episode. I really like how Peter isn't ruined without his original power, which was one thing I took away from tonight's episode. I like the Noah, Angela thing that is going on and the flash backs were great how they made them black and white. I was really happy with tonight's episode.

That is pretty cool, with a pretty decent design. I see it being most beneficial to a game like Wii Fit.

hate it.

Beyond what everyone else has said, the game has its good moments and its bad ones. I'd like to see where they take the series in the second game because so far I have enjoyed the storyline of the first game.

I hate all but one of the bands, Dear and the Headlights and I just saw them for free on Thursday. Definitely not paying to see a bunch of punk/alt bands.
