social commentary

with the growing abundance of social networks on the internet is it not all becoming a little bit too much?

blogging started blogger competing with wordpress or vice versa, then came the choice to upload photos followed by the decision to profess loyalty with either flickr, picasa, kodac photo or the list goes on. thus began the daily document on stories that are your's or someone else's life...

along comes facebook, myspace, twitter and they keep on coming... some taking it really seriously - i have a friend who we shall call the facebook slut, what with 354 friends - others using it as a means to escape their boredom or just pass time using it as a means to network.

there's a problem as the inevitable looms and your life gets interrupted by the constant need to update and check and correct and make tiny little profile amendments and then click click, presto you are actually literally a walking talking horror movie plugged in...

google blogger spelling

it is nice that finally the import of spell check has arrived in the bloggin world. no longer need i cut and past to check was is my disastrous attempt at spelling a word. but why the Americanisms? can we move along, please and at least have the option to spell words that i am sure use an 's' without the 'z'. i want the 'u' in colour.
i don't thinks this is asking to much, lets get it together folks.... options please!
