Facebook ditches "Become a Fan" and changes it to "Like" (Download Squad)

Mar 31st 2010 1:40AM The really important part that is missing here is that while the button is changing to "Like" what happens when you click is not. In other words, clicking Like will be the same as clicking Become Fan now. That means that when you like something, you'll get posts on your wall etc... not just a little thumbs up.

It's a sneaky way to allow advertisers to increase how many users they can "communicate" with, and thus make advertising on Facebook even more valuable so that they can either charge more, or get more advertisers so that the venture capital doesn't run out before they can go public.

I click DISLIKE (if it was there)

ManicTime tracks the time you spend using applications (Download Squad)

Aug 26th 2009 2:23PM I recently ditched RescueTime for ManicTime because I didn't like all of that "what I do" data going out onto the web. http://www.besthubris.com/entreprenuer/rescuetime-time-tracker-offline-version-manictime/

The one thing I can't get over though is how BIG Manic Time is. It uses something like 70K+ of RAM while running on my PC. RescueTime uses around 6K. I guess it just depends on which is more important to you, your privacy, or your system's resources.
