You are about to lose a lot of information on your profile and the worst part is Facebook wasn’t even going to tell you! Watch my video below to learn more.

Personally I think this sucks. Facebook is moving more and more away from a site that expresses personality. What do you think of this change? Are you upset? Did you have anything useful in your boxes tab?

P.S. I am in the process of creating my own friend making site and we will always believe in user expression! To learn more about the site we are calling MyTells you can click here.


Do You Like The New Facebook Layout?

Posted: February 21st, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Facebook Profile | Tags: , , , , , | 17 Comments »

Facebook updated the layout of the site last week. We take a look at the changes and what we like and don’t like.



  • Notifications have been moved around.
  • Search is very prominent maybe because of Microsoft’s stake in Facebook
  • Requests for new friends and events seem to be duplicated.
  • The application toolbar has been removed and is now on the left side. The problem is it seems to be only on the homepage to use your bookmarks
  • The Logout button was buried deep in the Account tab.
  • If your using the chat you can see the people online on the left sidebar as well.
  • Facebook is becoming a major player in the search industry and is getting comparative search volume to google.

So what do you think about the new Facebook Layouts? What do you like and what do you NOT like?

Please leave your opinion in the comments below and I will try to do a video response to your comments.


Facebook Proxy - What’s the Deal?

Facebook Proxy

After our exam in Literature, I went to the cafeteria to meet the gang and get my thoughts off the grueling exam. I found the group huddled tightly at our favorite table. “That’s weird, they seem to be in one heck of a serious conversation”, I said to myself as I hurried to join them.

“Hey! What’s up? Everyone’s so serious! Did someone die or something?”

“Don’t you know?” Ken asked glumly. “Know what?” I innocently replied.

Then Ana blurted out, “The school just installed a new firewall! Say goodbye to Facebook, Friendster and MySpace.”

Snap. Is the admin seriously blocking social networks? Can we unblock Facebook?

Just when I felt that my whole social life was starting to crumble, the tech geek Nikko arrived. “Don’t worry guys we can use a Facebook proxy.”

He said in a matter-of-fact voice. We all sighed in relief then Ana went goggle eyed and exclaimed, “Oh! A Facebook proxy! Umm
 What exactly is a Facebook proxy? Come to think of it, what is a proxy?”

When we talk of social networking sites, many of us think of Facebook, which of course lives up to its trademark – TheFacebook. With millions of users around the globe, Mark Zuckerberg’s social networking site is indeed TheFacebook, if you get my drift. However, as expected from any idea that hits the pot of gold at the end of that double rainbow (and this is a very rare occurrence), his has also been subjected to a series of ugly and messy legal disputes. These have been perpetrated by his college ‘chums’ the most recent of which is Aaron Greenspan. So what exactly are the contentions against the site?

How Do We Ward Off Facebook Impostors?

Impostors on Facebook

Facebook impostors are proliferating alarmingly as reported by the media. What started as a social networking website founded five years ago by Mark Zuckerberg, then a Harvard computer science major student, along with his colleagues, to communicate with friends and other contacts, has now become a medium for unscrupulous individuals to hatch their evil schemes.

Just recently, alarming exposés on scam artists, hackers, identity thieves and other Facebook Impostors posing as friends and stealing personal information from members rocked the global social networking community drawing almost universal criticism of the website.


One report tells of Bryan Rutberg of Seattle, USA, whose account was used to extort money from his friends. Rutberg’s impostor posted “Bryan NEEDS HELP URGENTLY!!!” on his status update to which one of his friends responded by sending money to London where Rutberg was allegedly robbed and in need of fare to get back to the U.S.



In another event, Anthony Stancl, a resident of New Berlin, Wisconsin, solicited naked photos of high school boys by posing as a woman on his Facebook account. He purportedly used the photos to compel the young men to engage in sexual acts with him. Stancl was later seized by authorities on grounds of 12 complaints of felony, which included ‘sexual assault of a child younger than 16 and possession of child pornography’.

Even a public official like President Bharrat Jagdeo of Guyana wasn’t spared from this vicious online modus operandi. In his case, an account was set up containing 174 supporters and two photo albums featuring the Berbice Bridge in Guyana and pictures of international leaders, some posing with the South American head. Jagdeo denied any involvement on the existence of the account and sought the assistance of the police to investigate on this matter.

In the light of these disturbing incidents, how do we ward off Facebook impostors?
