A sanctuary in cyberspace, but every love story ends. (Facebooooook.....) Why'd you have to go and lose your exclusivity? Now all my nightmares have come true... my mom just friended me! Since she joined she spends all her time checking my news feed. My interests are no longer bubble butts and sticky weed. She whacked my ass on Mafia Wars and Flixtered "You've Got Mail." She washed the colors with the whites and posted "laundry fail" ('cause now)... CHORUS My mom's on Facebook. She found a new way to nag me. My mom's on Facebook. Comments whenever friends tag me. My mom's on Facebook. She only got it to stalk me. My mom's on Facebook. My childhood photos cock-block me. My wall is not for e-mail, mom, you'll never get it right. And gifting me some sexy lips don't mean a kiss goodnight. She keeps on adding all my friends, they just think she's a joke... except for Steve who says that she's a mom he'd like to poke. (She's a MILP!) Mama read my 25 Things and each and every note. Now she knows I lost a bet and had to wax my scrote. Suggests new pages every day from "hugs" to "Will and Grace." It's getting to the point <b>...</b>

Google is apparently experimenting with adding a human element to its Google News pages, according to a report by the Nieman Journalism Lab .

In another groundbreaking move, The Guardian newspaper in Britain has launched a plugin for the popular blog-publishing tool WordPress (see disclosure below) that allows web sites to embed the full text of Guardian news stories and other content for free.

It hasn’t gotten a lot of notice, but Google isn’t the only one that’s been adding social networking features to its email, the way the search giant did via the much-criticized Google Buzz: fellow web giant Yahoo has been gradually rolling out a similar suite of features called Yahoo Updates, which integrates connections to Twitter...

Less than 0.2 percent of people who use Twitter wind up going to news and media sites from the social-networking site, according to a recent analysis by traffic-measurement firm Hitwise (although Hitwise just looked at traffic coming from the web site, not any third-party apps or services). So what are the top places that users go from Twitter?...
Facebook announced some changes to its privacy guidelines today, but that wasn’t what captured the interest of the blogosphere and other media outlets.

To its credit, Google continues to try and make its services more social, even though social media and social networking in general don’t seem to come easily to the search giant.
