Facebook has become spam book.

Do not people understand that all this applications they approve will keep on sending them spam? My Facebook is no longer filled with people personal messages it is full with different tests on how good you are making pancakes or even more silly.

If I was the boss for a huge company with computers for the staff I would ban Facebook from the work place asp, it takes way to much time from the employee.

The users do not even realize that the application steals all your personal emails and information and can later sell it to spammers.

So why you wonder how the Nigerian spammer could get your email and name you know they got it from Facebook.

Do not just click yes on all these silly games or create two Facebook accounts and use the “fake” one for all the games.

Facebook beacon is the resent of bad products that score worst product ever. People with too much money sometimes create very bad products like the Apple digital camera 150.

But the most recent that our readers can remember is Facebook beacon that let everybody know what you are buying. The beacon can be very cool if you buying some new Armani jeans but maybe not so cool if you buying extra small condoms.

The Facebook beacon also broke more then one consumer law in the US and Facebook quickly removed it.

I also that Windows ME is on the list and I bought 10 of them, any buyers please contact me.

Your Facebook account can be used to attack other sites. The Greek Computer Science Institute made a bogus application to test and in with a few hours they had 1000 users.

The application shows a picture from a well know website but it also ask for 3 pictures from another websites. That request to see 3 pictures from another website can crash that site or even server when the amount of users comes up to a few thousands.

Facebook have few programmers to check these attacks and there is no way for the users to check each application.

As soon as you log in to your Facebook account the attack starts and when you log if it stops. Do not let your computer become a zombie watch what you join.

The FBI has been doing a sting operation on the website DarkMarket.ws. When internet hackers and credit cards fraudsters thought their admin when was a crock as them, he was actually a FBI agent.

FBI has with the help of other law informants around the world so far arrested 56 people and more arrested are to be made soon.

Members of the DarkMarket.ws market should be very scared now since the FBI have probably tracked down all their IP addresses and know exactly where they live.

Maybe it is time to buy this new computer for real money and dump the old one in the sea?

Are any more underground forums really run by the FBI and who can you really trust on the internet? Who do you think really owns Facebook? What a prefect tool to collect your information.

I will try to make some Facebook applications and post them on the internet. I do not know really how I should start but I guess on Facebook is a good idea. I know I am a bit late but I still there is money to be made there somehow. It is also a good place to launch promotions for your different companies and websites with no cost.

If you made a Facebook application or a tutorial on how to do one please send it my way and I will write about it and give you my review.

See you on Facebook people

I do not know if you saw BBC documentary about the Facebook problem. Facebook is not very safe even if they have a whole team working on security it is still not safe. The applications that they allow to work on Facebook can take your information and your friend’s information.

When BBC tried to install a “virus” in Facebook they had no problem doing this despite the “big” security team on Facebook.

Myspace on the other hand does not have this problem they do not install any outside script without checking the code first. I think that’s a good plan and they will have less chance to end up with a law suit later on.

What do you think about facebook, myspace and hi5? They are very popular and now I’m feeling sick of them. Since they have been trying to beat each others by providing a lot of features as much as possible, those features are unnecessary and very annoyed me.

Who will care there are some people gave hugs to me or they change their picture profile or they will go taking shower in next 2 hours? I mean the purpose of all those network connections are to have friends or dating not to stalking someone life or to be able to know in everything they do. It’s such annoying information which I think they just want to put all those details in order to let the users feel like they have more things to look at compare with others.

The sad thing is that since one website start does new features, the others will do that as well. And now I have to consider the mails in my mailbox on what my friends or not really my friends are doing today like go to supermarket, taking shower, missing their girlfriends or whatever. I feel like no fun anymore, all those information reminds me when I was a kid, we pay attention with something nonsense and useless and now we get back to that process of life again but just online.
