Random Thought for Thursday 3/3/11

[New occasional series alert: Facebook Ubiquitousness!]

Facebook -- it really is everywhere!

It just turned up in court documents in Virginia because Awais Younis used it to promote pipe-bomb-building as it related to Metro blowing-upping. Some people have privacy concerns about whether their phone number and personal information might be seen by others. Sounds like young Awais could have used some of that concern before he used social media to communicate his domestic terrorism threats!

Let's you and I make a pact. If my random soapbox rants on Saturday ever blow the stridency dial off the charts, please contact the appropriate authorities (link listed below)!

FACEBOOK -- IT's NOT JUST FOR CYBER-BULLYING ANYMORE:

BUT AWAIS, IT's SUCH A PRETTY PRETTY SUBWAY:
