Facebook - It changes your brain

So according to a recent study by University College London, the the number of facebook friends you have can affect several areas of your brain related  to memory and your real world social network.

However, does that really factor in those that just add people they don't even know? The mashable article refers to Dunbar's Number which identifies having 150 friends as the limit of an average person's social circle. Im way above that limit with nearly double that in facebook friends. What does that tell you about me? =P

e-Sports / Sports, is it all the same?

The best person to ask that question, would be someone who is involved in both!

Check out this interview with NBA's Gordon Howard who recently took part in a professional Starcraft 2 tournament.

What does Facebook know about you?

Hey guys,

I have already posted this in the book. But i figured it was worth a blog post.

On the 27th of September, 2011 a user on the website www.reddit.com posted an image describing how to make a data request to facebook to send all the personal data which they had collected of you as part of the “European Data Protection Directive” .

Under the European Data Protection act, Facebook will then have to send you a CD containing all the information they have about you. This caused a huge response, so much so that facebook sent out this response to several users, explaining that there would be delays in their response to the data requests.

So, are you going to send them an e-mail?
