 | The popular-in-2004 photohosting service Webshots announced a relaunch, but glossed over the fact they'll be deleting your old photos if you don't update your account. Welcome to the next stage of internet linkrot. |
 | Their social team tweeted a horribly tasteless non-joke about Barack Obama's dead grandmother. |
 | A billion people are on Facebook. That puts it right up there with television, chocolate and Mandarin Chinese. |
 | Colleen Lachowicz is a State Senate candidate by day, "orc assassination rogue" by night. Or does facing off with troglodytes and balancing a life and a raid schedule make her MORE qualified? |
 | Facebook says Facebook is like a chair. A doorbell. A dance floor. A great nation. Facebook is EVERYTHING. |

That "each year the amount of stuff that each individual shares is growing at this exponential rate." And that with a billion users, "Now really everyone can start to rely on us as infrastructure," including other huge companies like Skype. Oh and that "It isn’t a core human need to use Facebook," so netting a billion users is pretty impressive. |
