OK so I have had a twitter account for a few years, but have not used it much. I have got a Facebook account that I do use frequently, and now I have a blog that is public.
So now I have connected them together, well almost. Anything that I put on this blog will go to my twitter account and to Facebook as long as I have included the word (Share2All) in it.
One of the first things that I will put up here will be '30 Days Of Me'. I will be starting this next month.

Facebook | More Details on Today's Outage
The real reason Facebook was off line. The error handler had an error in it.
Apple Working on a Smaller iPad
Apple has sold over 3 million iPads at last count, and it’s clear that the iPad is a winner. So it only makes sense that Apple will appeal to consumers that want a slightly different form factor, and those that will throw green at everything with a bitten Apple logo on it, and come out with a family of iPads. And not just the 16 to 64 GB and Wi-Fi vs. 3G models, but different sized models for those that want something smaller.

Old Oil Rig Converted Into Brand New Vacation Spot For Scuba Divers
Old Oil Rig Converted Into Brand New Vacation Spot For Scuba Divers
Only 120 diving and snorkeling permits are granted near Sipadan island each day and lately some of those have been going to folks using an old oil rig's elevator to drop right into the perfect waters.
Basically, the oil rig has been converted into a hotel called Seaventures and while its 25 tiny guest rooms don't exactly resemble those of a luxury resort, they do include access to that elevator which'll lead to some crystal clear water, coral reefs, and plenty of ocean life.
World's largest offshore wind farm spins into action off the coast of Britain
They stretch up to two and a half times the height of Nelson's Column at Trafalgar Square, their number is close to a hundred, and their mission is to bring clean, renewable energy into British homes. Yes, we're talking about turbines. The latest wind farm to be erected near the Queen's most sovereign isles is said to be the largest in the world (for now) and promises to produce enough energy to keep 240,000 homes going -- the equivalent of half the county of Kent. It's part of the UK's grand plan to generate at least 20 percent of all its power needs through the taming of the winds and cost the Kingdom a cool £780 million ($1.2b) to build. That's admittedly a big bill to swallow, but there are worse things to blow your billions on... such as, say, the Millennium Dome.

Microsoft warns of in-the-wild attacks on web app flaw • The Register
Microsoft warns of in-the-wild attacks on web app flaw
Attackers have begun exploiting a recently disclosed vulnerability in Microsoft web-development applications that opens password files and other sensitive data to interception and tampering.
The vulnerability in the way ASP.Net apps encrypt data was disclosed last week at the Ekoparty Conference in Argentina. Microsoft on Friday issued a temporary fix for the so-called “cryptographic padding attack,” which allows attackers to decrypt protected files by sending vulnerable systems large numbers of corrupted requests.

Now, Microsoft security pros say they are seeing “limited attacks” in the wild and warned that they can be used to read and tamper with a system's most sensitive configuration files.
Facebook Friend Rejects Can Still Follow You
Facebook Friend Rejects Can Still Follow You
A few days ago, Facebook quietly changed their friend rejection procedure. Instead of opting to Ignore, you can now only defer the put-down by clicking Not Now. But those purgatoried people can still read all your public info and updates.
As TechCrunch observes, when someone sends you a Friend request they get immediate access to the information that you've designated as available to Everyone in your privacy settings. Once they're rejected, they're blocked for good. But by creating this friendship limbo, Facebook is creating a Twittteresque follow feature.
You can still deny friend requests outright; it just takes an extra step. Once you've said Not Now to a request, you're asked "Don't you know ______?," and if you say no they'll be blocked. If you don't say no right then, you have to head to your Requests page to block them.
With any luck, you've already made your privacy settings strict enough that this won't be an issue for you. But that's not who this policy change is targeting; Facebook's banking that if you're lazy, uninformed, or exhibitionist enough leave your info exposed to the world, you'll be equally so when dealing with friend requests.

Google Earth For iOS Goes Underwater
Google Earth For iOS Goes Underwater:
"Google Earth for iOS just got an update that adds a host of underwater and ocean surface content, as well as spiffing things up for the Retina Display. I consider it the only safe way to explore the ocean."
This Aurora Photo Is the Most Insane I've Ever Seen
By far, this is the most spectacular and insane photography of an aurora borealis I've ever seen.
It was photographed by Ole Christian Salomonsen over Tromsø, Norway, using long exposure. That's why you can see streaks from satellites and an airplane crossing the firmament.

IE9 will leave a significant portion of Windows users behind | Software News - Betanews
IE9 will leave a significant portion of Windows users behind | Software News - Betanews: "The company has decided to make IE9 incompatible with Windows XP, as it lacks the necessary technologies to power the new browser.
According to research firm NetApplications, nearly 61 percent of all computers run Windows XP as of August. Windows Vista and Windows 7, both IE9 compatible, make up about 30 percent. In other words, seven in 10 PCs are incompatible right out of the box, a major problem for Microsoft."
