The Bird That Changed the World

Twitter.  OMG.

If you’ve never heard of Twitter you’ve either a) just woken up from a lengthy coma, or b) you’re an extraterrestrial.  Even if you don’t trust it or aren’t sure what it is, there’s a 100% chance you’re curious/have been curious about it at some point in time. 

It might be a little too simple for some, especially Facebook addicts, but its simplicity is what makes it so darn addictive.  It’s especially useful for the non-casual user.  It can help businesses and their employees communicate ideas, get ideas or information, and keep up to date with worldly trends and events. 

All I can say is GET A TWITTER ACCOUNT!!  Make sure to mention @fun2last.  

Photo Phobia!

Flickr and Picasa are two very popular image hosting sites.  I’m not going to make a lengthy review for these two because I want you all to know my opinion right away. 

Flickr is very good, and millions of people use it.  It’s stable, free, and easy to use.  However, it’s Yahoo based and that’s a big no-no in my book. 

Picasa is Google based, and if you’ve read any of my other reviews you’d know that I almost always choose Google’s stuff.  I’m not a Google fanboy.  I just really like what they have to offer and how they offer it.  This time around, however, I’m not too sure Google wins.  Picasa is really nice, too, but it’s also nothing special compared to Flickr.  They both are pretty much the same and neither stands out.
