Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Has anyone gotten this IQ Quiz thing when going to www.facebook.com? I just did and I killed the browser the moment it showed up out of pure instinct.

As near as I can tell, Gud, that IQ test is not even a Facebook app. It's a non-associated web site that makes its ad banner look like a FB app button. It will take you to a page where you have to sign up for a fee based cell phone service or something. None of your friends it claims have taken the test have actually taken the test. Those are made up bullshit numbers. If you pay close attention, it will change every time.

See, that's why I don't take Facebook quizzes or the like. They also use the information to sell to 3rd parties. I read an article that talked about how they used a "lifestyle" quiz. If you said that you were depressed more than a few times a month, they sold your email to a drug company that sells antidepressants so that they could spam you, etc.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yep. Basically, what do people think "allow this app access to your information" means?

Yeah, I don't allow any apps. Which makes my facebook page pretty vanilla, but I'm good with that. Seeing as how my college roommate spammed everyone with malware, I'd rather the alternative.

Anybody know how to save a web page to be looked at later? Basically, I've handed over the reins for my summer program, and I want to preserve a copy of the web page I designed before the new person changes it/I lose access to it.
I'm using Contribute, and there doesn't seem to be a way of saving it through that (or maybe there is and I don't know?). Thoughts?

I use Firefox's File->Save Page As...
Seems to work very well. I've used it to fake websites to great effect on April Fool's day.
