Michael Bay Facts
Awesome.
It seems a successor to the ubiquitous Chuck Norris Facts meme has arisen. The target? Action movie director Michael Bay.
In the wake of the new Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen movie a stream of Michael Bay Facts has been pouring out of twitter, and as with Chuck Norris Facts, most are hysterical.
Since Michael Bay Facts mock their target rather than revere him (he really is a shitty director, though I loved Transformers: ROTF), and since Michael Bay will never be bad-ass like Chuck Norris, I’m sure this meme will be quite short lived. With that in mind, get them while the getting is good. I see io9 has posted some of their favorites, and I’d like to do the same. (More …)

Well I personally think that more people should use brightkite.com
Like a certain blogger, who shall remain nameless at this time.

Lol yes yes I should. I’ll start using it more when I travel away from Bangor.

Well, to me the difference is that one can follow a given person’s tweets without the permission of that person. But you can’t examine somebody’s facebook wall unless they specifically let you.

really it’s just annoying to manage so many things unless you have a system setup, which is why i am only managing my facebook for my personal updates. I am still using twitter but only for my work stuff since I only need to keep track of my daily activities. And really no one was updating for my twitter friends other than the great euicho and I could read his twitter posts on facebook, so thus I didn’t need it.

Both very true.
Having a system was crucial for me. I don’t care too much for updating my facebook status, but since twitter does it automatically I set it up. Also, I like brightkite, but wouldn’t want to update that AND twitter each time. Luckily, brightkite updates twitter for me if I use it. And Yahoo Fire Eagle brokers my location info between any services I allow so I can control my privacy levels.
Without things updating one another it becomes a social networking nightmare/fuster-cluck
