G+ to FB
by Simon at 08:49 12/07/11 (Blogs::Simon)
Somewhere for me to put the script I wrote that uses G+ notification emails to post the same status update to FB.
Could easily be improved, but I ran out of enthusiasm.

Why do people still use Facebook?

I'm serious. Given what we know about Facebook and the fact that it is a gigantic data mining engine feeding Ad trolls all wrapped up in the guise of pretending to be a social network, why do we persist in feeding the troll? In the same way that every climax after masturbation is immediately followed by a sense of guilt, every status update I posted was immediately followed by a conscious desire to want to punch Mark Zuckerberg in the face.

Surely I'm not the only one who feels that way.(*)

No, not really. But when it comes to privacy, I'd trust Google to at least shaft me in public. FB just want to take you round behind the bike shed.

Most people KNOW what Google will do you with your data. But FB would apparently rather you didn't think about it.
