    The newest chapter on "If you make it fool proof, they'll create a better fool" is called "too stupid to use the internets". For about one week this blog[^] would appear as the first link when people typed "Facebook login" at Google. Lots of users, frustrated because couldn't login into Facebook, left the most amusing messages. Read them, it's enlightening. And then if you typed "cancel Google" in the search page you'd get an link to this other blog[^], that soon became the target of anger from people trying to remove Google's toolbar or first page. Just read the comments. I read somewhere that the iPad is the computer for people that hate computers. After reading the comments from the pages above it makes a lot of sense. A restricted but safe computer for people that hate computers has the potential for a paradigm shift in the industry.

    Of all forms of sexual aberration, the most unnatural is abstinence.

      Repost.[^] (Although the original didn't link to the second set about removing Google.) Man, if your self-esteem ever needs a boost, reading these will do it. :laugh:

        Ooops, my fault. I did search for keyword "Facebook" and the original site (ReadWriteWeb), but couldn't find a reference.

          It's worth a second look. It really is a classic. :-D

            Clients of mine see the whole internet/browser/search space under the umbrella concept of 'Google'. That is, they do bankin gon Google, they do Facebook on Google, and they do searches on Google.
