Recession fun fact of the day:The total debt of the United States now exceeds the GNP of the entire world.
So slightly worrying...
After Thomas' praises yesterday of Facebook, I did a little research into that 'gem of a site' and uncovered some disturbing things in it's Terms of Service.

Thomas: I didn't praise facebook. I said that app annoyed me a lot. Not quite praise in my book but...
Dave: You told me to get Facebook, which you already have, thereby recommending it to me, ergo PRAISE
There's some fun reading in there, such as
"Now, anything you upload to Facebook can be used by Facebook in any way they deem fit, forever, no matter what you do later.* Want to close your account? Good for you, but Facebook still has the right to do whatever it wants with your old content. They can even sublicense it if they want."
Great news Facebook, do you want my soul while you're at it? So any original content that you upload to Facebook...becomes their property and you relinquish all rights to it??!! Think I'll stick with Bebo if it's all the same to you Mr. Facebook.

UPDATE 2: And some more to feed your paranoia:

On the Aberdeen front, I think it's fair to say that we romped to victory over East Fife with an easy 5-0 win. Five-star Aberdeen the headline could be, and it is amazing to me that we amassed such a winning margin without the injured Mackie! Goals from Wright, Aluko, Vidal and a late double from Chris 'bebo'* Maguire secured a vital victory for the Dons on the road to Hampden.
Thomas: I can't believe East Fife lost. What a cupset.
Dave: So my prediction of a cup final for Aberdeen is still on course, watch this space...
Until next time,
Dave
