September 9th, 2009Click Here to Play Audio Version
Burglars use Facebook and Twitter. Interesting that thieves are using Social Media to see what you have, and how to get it. So the deal is, you post on Facebook, you are going out of town, you have also posted pictures of your Plasma TV. Burglars put 2 and 2 together and concoct a heist.

Episode 1, Working out the kinks.
September 1st, 2009Audio:
Facebook grew twice as fast as Twitter in July was discussed, the speed of the growth of Facebook is something to notice, and Facebook is the 4th largest site in the world according to the Washington Post.
The Feds, meaning Obama and his gang used Facebook, Twitter and Youtube to garner public opinion on their ill advised Air Force One photo op flyover of Manhattan. Good use of Social Media? We think so.
Facebook found the Bicycle Thief. ABC News reported the story of the bicycle stolen in Brooklyn, and recovered. Good feel good story here.
A lady has her laptop stolen, and the thief has the nerve to taunt her on her OWN Facebook account. Hilarious story, of a thief with a sense of humor.
How about some funny Facebook terms. Face-Brag, Face-Googles, Twitface and more. Don’t be one of these. See the video for full explanations of all the above.
Most Twitter Feeds Just Nonsense. Really? All those tweets are not absolutely time sensitive and crucial to your day to day lives? The numbers are not too surprising.
The show talks about a couple who met on Facebook who are now getting married who have the exact same name, the show some of the funniest bits on the internet, and a great video of the week.
