    Default Google +1

    When Google posted earnings this past week, they said that 10,000,000 people had signed up for their +1 "social networking". I had not heard of it so I looked into it. It is apparently like facebook's "like" feature.

    Now you will see the +1 icons throughout the forum. I'm not sure of its significance, but I also thought Facebook was going to be a short-term, waste of time fad when it came out.

    Awesome, so we can all buy the same thing and finally get rid of that pesky individualism. Wait a minute is this what capitalistic communism looks like?

    You guys are showing your age. Elvis and rock and roll were obviously the root of all evil.

    No. You can still wear your short shorts with knee high socks. We won't judge.

    Old fashioned meet and greet has never failed me yet...on the other hand, cybersex relationships and intenet foreplay has greater risks of failing and come with risks of certain viruses...

    Not so good, but I'm hoping things improve when I get my new driod, besides it matches my watch.

    And technically, after midnight they're called early morning 1-900 numbers.
