"50 Things we know now that we didn't know this time last year" - my favourites and responses
10. Surfing the Internet may help delay dementia because it creates stimulation that exercises portions of the brain.

[File this under I Told You So. The internet is good for you! I like this list already!]
27. Women who revealed about 40 percent of their skin attracted twice as many men as those who covered up. Any more than 40 percent and the signal changes from allure to one indicating general availability and future infidelity.
[Yes, but *which* 40 percent also makes a big difference to the results, don't you think?
More studies are warranted!]
40. The speed of U.S Internet broadband lags far behind other industrial nations, including Japan, Finland, South Korea, France and Canada.
[I wonder where Malaysia is, on the list? Can we get to the top?]
44. A flesh-eating pitcher plant that grows more than 4 feet long can swallow and devour rats that are lured into its slipperlike mouth to drown or die of exhaustion before being slowly dissolved by digestive enzymes.

I was reading an interesting article on the decade's top 20 gadgets, when I came across this thumb drive.

"Facebook CEO's Private Photos Exposed by the New 'Open' Facebook"
via gawker.com
Facebook's new "privacy policy" has opened up digital assets like this one to the public.
After all, don't we have the right to know how Mark Zuckerberg jams on his guitar?
My eyes.
Incidentally, I set most of my stuff to be available to "Everyone". Which now means "Everyone on the internet". Where before, "Everyone" meant "Everyone on Facebook."
Personally, I feel that this definition of "Everyone" is more accurate. Plus, I'm a bit of a narcissistic exhibitionist.
(But what blogger isn't?)
