Facebook Opens Up

The latest buzz on the wire is that Facebook has now released an API for 3rd-party developers.

On a personal note, this looks like it will help with a project I am working on, stay tuned.

To search or not to search

Last week I mentioned that AOL accidentally released millions of search terms and the corresponding user ID to them.

Some nerds at SomethingAwful compiled numerous lists of very disturbing search requests from various users. And I mean disturbing (see the second to last one).

One wonders when someone will write some kind of existential book or movie about how search terms reflect some kind of Freudian self. Not it.

You can download the entire search log here.
