Google+ is Public

That's right everyone! Google+ went public yesterday! And if you're that kid on the block who pretends to know everything but just doesn't (kinda like me), Google+ is the new competitor to Facebook. It was in beta for quite a long time, but was finally released to the public yesterday. And guess what, it actually compares quite well to Facebook. In fact, it might completely replace Facebook for me!

If you want to sign up, just go to http://www.google.com/ and click on ‘+You’ on the top left.

Please feel free to leave feedback on this post and if you will switch to Google+!

New FaceBook Profiles

Hey everyone!, FaceBook has just release new profiles (currently optional upgrade), which to some of you may be bad or good. Here we will show you how to make the switch, and list pros and cons.

First, so you know what you're getting into (the is NO turning back!), we will list the pros/cons.

Pros;

• More visual appeal (depending on who you are),
• Smaller Font (once again depend who you are),
• More things will fit on profile,
• Supports more personal information,
• List colleagues, classmates, etc, and
• Can get more specific with your job (for example, current project).

Cons;

• There is NO turning back!,
• Constantly nags asks you for more information,
• Harder to read due to smaller fonts,
• Less visual appeal (depending who you are), and
• Lots of thing are moved around.

How to upgrade;

1. Watch the video on this website, it will help with transition (optional).
2. Goto this website, then click "Get the New Profile" button.

Making the Switch!

Hey everyone!, you know our infamous Twitter feeds right?, probably not (since we're just starting out), well, we've been using TwitterFeed for our Twitter accounts, and it was always near-real time (instant if PuSH enabled, or max of 30 min if not).

Well, we've decided that 30 min max, is just too long! So were going to be making the switch to dlvr.it tomorrow, this should still give us instant updates with PuSH enabled sites, and make the max times for other, 15 minutes!

As we said before, the switch will begin tomorrow, so we will be going into maintenance then!, oh and expect to see a FaceBook page very soon!

New Facebook Picture Viewer

Facebook recently (unsure how recently), rolled out a new feature. When you browser photos now, instead of it being a new page (with full size photo), a nice (HD looking) pop-up will open above the thumbnail page. This also supports editing (for owner). Clearly I am having a bit of trouble explaining this so here are some pictures.

New Design. In case anyone's wondering, this is my friend's turban collection.

Now unfortunately, we couldn't get a picture of the old design, but were sure you all remember. Also in addition, if you are the owner of the photo, you now have additional edit options. Such as Rotate.
