What's the word so far? Is it better than Facebook? I like the "safer" idea, tho, as a mom of a gorgeous daughter ... (strangers tell me how pretty she is! ) I've heard of the on-going privacy problems with Facebook - is Google Plus better?

I imagine that whatever happens, there will always be some danger of ppl hacking accounts... for that definition of safety... From the OTHER END, though... for instance, what your daughter reveals about herself on her profile... I haven't heard anything new about what kind of safety THAT provides.
There are things about Facebook, though. For instance, if I were to post an album and specify only certain people could see it, and one of them posted a comment on it... I think that could post in their news feed, and THEIR friends could see their comment, and the picture, and possibly the album, by clicking on the picture. I THINK. Sometimes it's hard to tell.

Sorry all, having some problems with google+ not letting me add people. Looks like they've temporarily shut down invites because their servers WERE ABOUT TO EXPLODE.
But as soon as I can, I shall. I'm seriously considering getting my own cellphone line. Anyone have good provider suggestions? I was thinking about Virgin Mobile or Cricket, but it seems like both of them have really horrific reviews. |

My husband and I are happy with Verizon. There's always the pay-as-you-go option as well - I've had friends who were happy with that.

I have! I like some of the ideas they use. One of the things I'm kind of sad never took off was Google Wave. It was pretty neat (to me, anyway...), but it never got as popular as I'd have liked.

I dislike Google and the way it tries to link everything together, so I won't be using Google+ anytime soon.

I know the feeling, Mari! I find Gmail invaluable, but I stopped trusting Google for much else after the Google Buzz privacy fail.
I can't see it being much better than Facebook in that regard. I had to delete my Facebook after yet another update that messed with my settings.

Thank you! Yes, it's Tsukasa.
I started watching the series a few days ago and I just love it.

I couldn't really get into it, but I like the animation style and the basic idea.

I got an AWESOME phone yesterday! It's the Nexus S 4G... supposedly it's the latest and greatest. I'm just glad it seems to work well and it has all of the features I want/need and then a barrel of monkeys... I love it.
I believe that this is the first piece of up-to-date technology I've ever bought. Everything else I've gotten has been an older model, and refurbished. |

I'm making vegetable beef stew... yum!
Actually, I'm hoping it turns out well... we just kind of dumped a whole bunch of stuff in a crockpot and are letting it cook... So... in about... 2-3 hours, the Café will be serving stew!
