Diana takes one for the team – facebook username mischief

This story has flown around the internet today via social networks such as Digg, Reddit, Twitter and Facebook. It’s one of those situations where you just can’t help laughing at someone in an unfortunate situation. If this doesn’t make you laugh you really don’t have a sense of humour… … maybe you should add Diana as a friend. It started as a Reddit thead: Facebook girl “loves an*l” but apparantly doesn’t know it Basically, to some up, someone who is probably close to Diana has been able to access her account and choose her username. They chose ‘I Love An*l’. Now, if you type in http://www.facebook.com/i.love.anal you go to her page. I am, of course, assuming she didn’t do it herself. The original person who found this out was good enough to try to tell her… This didn’t go down too well! Reddit also became aware of how much publicity the thread achieved. A new one was started up pointing out the results if you Googled the girls name. Reddit has now removed the above picture as the joke ‘went too far’. They were probably right, everyone was queuing up to tell Diana what has happened. She will almost certainly be a well know name for at least the next 24hours. Just goes to show what happens if you leave yourself logged in somewhere. (please note i have not mentioned her name anywhere in this article, i’m assuming facebook will change her username very soon, hopefully she will soon fall back into obscurity) So, pick your usename name! http://www.facebook.com/username Facebook should have done this from the start! or you could end up like these people (found via the reddit thread): http://www.facebook.com/cumonmyface http://www.facebook.com/cock.eater http://www.facebook.com/gayer Tags: facebook, reddit, twitter

Inspired thinking – I Wear Your Shirt

Do you remember the guy that created www.milliondollarhomepage.com to get himself through college and pocketed one million dollars? Everyone was jealous because they didn’t think of it first. Well, someone else has updated the concept and it still works! Jason is a web designer from the states who has designed and created www.iwearyourshirt.com. The idea is simple. Everyday he will wear a t-shirt with a company’s name and brand on the front of it. That alone will get you nowhere but Jason has cleverly linked up his idea with blogging and social media platforms to provide really good marketing posibilities. He posts daily on youtube, flickr and twitter to make sure the t-shirt gets noticed. The daily price goes up as the year passes, it originally started a $1, this makes sense as more people will know about the site by December! Top idea Jason. Good luck. (i wonder what he will do with 365 used t-shirts in a years time?) Tags: flickr, twitter, youtube

A Tasty Blog – This is why you’re fat!

Thanks goes out to Stephen Fry on twitter for tweeting this amazing website! Thisiswhyyourefat.com A simple but brilliant idea for a blog. Everyone has a weakness when it comes to food, some peoples idea of gastronomy is hardly gourmet, and yet they all look so delicious. Personally, i can’t wait to try a pizza burger. Now where did i leave my cholesterol tablets? Tags: blog, twitter
