Hush hush talks can be heard at the corridors of MySpace and Yahoo about the rumors that the social networking site MySpace will be bought by Yahoo. These talks became louder when the impending lay off of over 500 MySpace employees will happen tomorrow. Rumors about this massive lay off has been in circulation the last few months as MySpace streamlines its company reportedly in preparation of selling the social networking site. It was just a few months ago that MySpace radically changed their appearance online and extended its services for their users other than social networking. Admittedly MySpace was a front runner in the industry for many years but it has since been eclipsed by the popularity of Facebook. So instead of just going down into oblivion, MySpace tried to re-invent itself as the ultimate site for people to share their types of music, videos plus being a social networking site as well. Although nothing is set in stone, the talks of an impending merger or outright acquisition of the News Corp baby is set to happen soon after they lay off about half of their current employees. The 550-600 people that will be given the sack ...

It seems that people these days will just believe anything they read and hear especially if this news came from the Internet. Have we forgotten that the internet is easily accessible by anybody who wants to write about anything he or she thinks about? The latest brouhaha that has caught a lot of fire was the rumored end of Facebook. The screams of all Facebook users worldwide can almost be heard the moment they got a wind of this news. Apparently, a certain website passed off as gospel truth the rumor that there will be no more Facebook beginning March 15,2011. The horror of logging in on the internet without accessing the most popular social networking site in the planet! This website has said that the founder and CEO of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg, has allegedly gotten tired of the fame and fortune so he just wants to end everything so that he could be back to to living an anonymous life. Obviously, this rumor couldn't be possible as there were no official news from the Facebook people themselves. When asked about the rumor, Facebook Director of Corporate Communications Larry Yu said that the rumor is not true and wants people ...

Toyota Motor Corp. is off to a bad start this year as they face a lot of cases that were filed against them. Toyota owners have filed numerous cases against the Japanese brand allegedly because of the sudden acceleration problem that their cars are vulnerable to do. With over 100 lawsuits pending in the state and federal courts, Toyota clearly has a big legal battle looming over their heads. It can be recalled that Toyota has issued massive recalls of their vehicles because it has been found that the cars' brake systems are flawed. The complainants have argued that their lives are put in danger because the car manufacturer did not install brake overrides that would have made their cars a lot safer. It has been found out that Toyota, as early as 2007, has began talking about ways of putting brake overrides in their vehicles as a safety precaution should the brake system malfunction. Unfortunately, Toyota has only began installing it last year after they have recalled their cars that have been plying the roads. The legal teams that are fighting the car giant are demanding undisclosed amounts for damages claiming that Toyota's negligence has caused countless accidents ...

Life is all about second chances. And a second chance is what Ted Williams had after becoming an internet sensation. For those of you who have not seen nor heard the video that has been circulating worldwide, Ted is a man who lost a lot because of wrong choices made in the past. Choices that all of use are capable of doing and of bungling as well. Ted is a homeless man who wanders the streets of Interstate 71. He is just like any other homeless guy who has unkempt hair, and a dirty and unshaven face. But all these has changed after his video circulated over the internet. Somebody interviewed him and uploaded the interview online. Ted has a sign that he carries with him saying that he has a "God given talent" and that is his voice. He used to be a radio announcer and when success got into his head, he began experimenting on a lot of things including drugs and alcohol. When finally he realized that his choices were wrong, it was a little bit too late. He ended up with nothing and lost everything that he had. But obviously God has other plans for him. Ted said that ...

Let's admit it, we all live in the digital age where usernames and passwords are as common as the air that we breath. As almost all of us have internet connection, we have a lot of sites that we go to frequently. To answer our need of being connected with the people that we love, we must have an account to most probably Facebook or MySpace. Because we need to be heard and our thoughts need to be known by the people in our network, we Tweet with our Twitter accounts. And as everything is done online, even our banking and other sensitive transactions are made online as well. With all these different accounts, how can we remember the passwords to each and every account. To make things easier, we try to use the password that can easily be remembered. Unfortunately, this kinds of passwords are easily remembered and recognized by hackers who are always out to victimize internet denizens. Experts say that the most common ...
