'Safe'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
More ways to share your business on Facebook (and have it shared for you).
Yeah, I don't get the appeal of that or Foursquare. Between 8 and 5, Monday-Friday, my manager has the right to know where I am. Otherwise it's nobody's business where the heck I might be.
A few of my Facebook friends were into Foursquare, but it seemed to be a very short-lived fad.
Several of DH's fellow critics are into Foursquare. There's apparently quite a heated competition to become the Mayor of the Magno screening room.
Foursquare is one of those things I stay far, FAR away from. The whole idea of it makes me twitchy.
The Shrimp Incident is interesting but it's no Molasses Flood or Waltz Riot.
I know about the Molasses Flood, but not the Waltz Riot. Google is giving me no love.
I don't get the appeal of broadcasting your location like that at all, and the idea of other people tagging me is horrific.
WHY A LAST MINUTE NOON CON CALL? Because life hates me, that's why.
Foursquare and Gowalla get on my nerves. I joke around with some of my friends about becoming the mayor of places that nobody could give a shit about, like the warehouse my office resides in, or the electrical distribution center across the street.
Ever since I saw that episode of Criminal Minds where the unsub selected and stalked his victims through facebook (it had some fake name like "lookbook" on the show), I have been very judicious about my status updates.
Oddly, this came up at dinner last night, and L (who used to work at a social media company) told a story about a coworker who was always checking in on foursquare and got a call at the restaurant that she'd checked in at from a complete stranger, asking how she was doing.
I understand the appeal of location services, but I'd rather not make it that easy to stalk me.
There's this guy that smonster and I are friends with on Facebook that we have nicknamed "easiest to assassinate" because he is constantly checking in wherever he goes. Buddy, I don't care where you eat every single meal, and its address, unless I'm a contract killer and I've got your name on a matchbook. In which case, thanks!
