Facebook Fan Page Is Complete :)
Out of the blue , I decided to start a Facebook Fan Page ( mainly to test the FBML features , lol ..)
In anycase , here is the link to the page . I created a custom landing page for the site using FBML ( Facebook Markup Language , and allot of CSS.
Originally , the appeal of Facebook was that every ones page looked similar ( and you didn't have your profile page polluted with glitter graphics like this 
The Facebook page will serve as an extension to this website 
Anyways, here is a screenshot of the layout ..
Cool Text Symbols For Use On facebook and Twitter

Life Without Facebook?
Security ( or the lack there of ) is becoming more and more an issue with people who are a part of online social networks. And of course the powerhouse of them all is Facebook. But with all of the malware being hosted on Facebook ,Myspace or Twitter getting hacked into ( on numerous occasions) , people really don't seem to mind.
When Myspace came along back in 2003 , everyone that it was the best thing next to sliced bread and warm butter. You could customize your pages , leave glitter graphics and all kinds of spam on your buddies page , and later on play Mafia Wars ( I am uber guilty of the last on thanks to my sister La Barbilona , lol) . However as time progressed , it started becoming monotonous , and then 2004 hits and along Facebook.
No bells and whistles. No customized profiles , none of the hoopla that you had to run through , just a simple user interface ( well back then it was simple , now with all of modifications that have occured since then , you almost need a Phd, to navigate through it) .
6 years later Facebook boasts ( these stats are straight from Facebook)
More than 400 million active users
50% of our active users log on to Facebook in any given day
Average user has 130 friends
People spend over 500 billion minutes per month on Facebook
Everyone and there mother has a Facebook page ( my father included , lol) . Facebook has become what myspace was at one point – The Alpha and The Omega of the Social Networks. Everyone from Absolut Vodka to The White House has a Facebook page ( I wouldn't post anything on the White House page though becasue they have a nice little clause on there page that says
This is the White House page on Facebook. Comments posted on and messages received through White House pages are subject to the Presidential Records Act and may be archived. Learn more at WhiteHouse.gov/privacy
Anyways, so I guess this whole rant was to hear from you the people .. Life After facebook . If Facebook where to come crashing down tommorow , what would you do ? It sounds like a joke , but some people really love them some Facebook, so I would love to hear some more on this .
Fake Facebook Virus
Most users of Facebook would know better than to install a program that claims to provide anti-virus protection from a website (why would anyone want to be a part of a social network that has viruses???) Unfortunately, there are plenty of people that believe that some app called Facebook Antivirus could really offer them protection from viruses while surfing Facebook.
Once a profile is infected, the rogue goes to work tagging your photos with 20 of your friends and then publishes the photo to your wall. Friends receive update notifications, stumble across the Antivirus, unknowingly click through, and spread the infection.
Facebook will no doubt shut down the app soon, but it's important to remember to be careful what you click. Less experienced users who need a little extra help identifying threats should check out some of the free tools
The good folks at F-Secure have posted a number of screenshots of FB Antivirus and you'll find information at Facebook Insider that will help you clean up your photos and wall if you've been victimized by the rogue program.
