Seriously Facebook? I have to tell you why I don't like an ad?
So now every time I remove an ad from the right side of my FB homepage, it invokes a layer that asks me why I didn't like the ad. Wrong FB! It should just go away without me having to explain to you. If you want to find out more about me, the user, leave those thumbs up/thumbs down icons below each ad, and invoke a layer only when I LIKE something and ask me why I like it, as in "Do you like the ad because it's relevant? Interesting?" That way you don't need all those negative adjectives in your pulldown, which indirectly tells users that you're shiite at predicting and inferring what people like. Capiche?

Sad
I'm saddened to read that legendary guitar player+inventor Les Paul died today at the ripe old age of 94. His contribution to guitar rock music cannot be measured. He will definitely be missed.
On a different note, but equally sad is the little "What am I doing" status thingy that I discovered today on the Yahoo! homepage. OMG, talk about too little too late. What a laggard Yahoo! has become? And why is it set in light gray at 9pts, hiding inconspicuously up in the corner? Too little, too late and not so committed. Sad indeed.
