Banhammered Michael Ian Black

Friday, December 19th, 2008

Michael Ian Black got banned from Facebook and wrote about it. Wtf, Mark Zuckerberg?

Neither of us generate as much advertising revenue as we would like, but that’s not my fault. I didn’t create your shitty business model. All I did was write a scathing article about it in the Wall Street Journal, which I then reprinted and left under people’s windshields at the mall. Don’t kill the messenger, Facebook!

edit: he got it back

Facebook’s Pirate Speak

Sunday, November 9th, 2008

My roommate told me about this thing. Somebody or somebodies decided at Facebook to add another language to the setting choices: Pirate! Yes, now we all can swab our status messages when we want to change them. We can use a variety of Arrplications. We can read through our bottle o’ messages! GO TO HOME PORT. It’s in the beta version.

Here’s a capture of my profile to get an idea of the thing with a couple things highlighted in pink. You can click the picture to see the full size.
