The So-Called Wikileaks War
Wikileaks is a site with a purpose like any other: to allow whistle-blowers to release their information confidentially. Wikileaks previously wasn't a popular site until the release of many cables by Julian Assange that gained worldwide attention apparently.
Since the release of the latest cables the world has come to look at Wikileaks in a bad way. US diplomats are calling Assange a terrorist and is planning to use his site for terrorism. This came forth after the cable which showed the US having people spy on countries like Russia, Iran, and Canada. Assange released the cable and others possibly to show the world is corrupt and not as pretty as most hope to perceive it to be. Assange is said to be facing charges or espionage, but all he does is make documents available. The main leaker's are soldiers who are now warned by the government to not use any CD's, memory sticks, or DVD's.
A group named Anonymous is trying to combat the US, by saying Wikileaks is something that is needed. The either shut down temperarily or slowed down sites like Mastercard, Visa, Paypal, and Moneybookers. Apparently it has changed it's focus to now trying to release all the cables that Assange hasn't done yet. A "so-called" member told the world it has changed it's focus as apparently the sites aren't having the impact they want to happen.
Assange is currently in prison facing charges of espionage and sex charges. Assange is computerless and unable to release the cables. Now everyone must be thinking, why not shut this site down? Well this site is hosted in Sweden by PRQ, a controversial hosting service founded by Pirate Bay founders. The reason is simple: Sweden has protective laws for journalists which prevent Wikileaks from being shutdown.
Wikileaks to me is not something the world should wash away, but embrace. Wikileaks has shown that the world is not as pure as you think and what may be a smile, may have the devil's heart.

Companies Tweeting and Facebooking For You?
Twitter and Facebook are great ways to meet your old friends and have fun and all that stuff and a good place to find good deals. Thats right, deals. Companies like GM or small businesses offer coupons for anyone who manages to get them off Twitter or Facebook. THESE companies do this for your money and I must say, it works.
GM is something that is benefiting. Dealers tweet coupons for followers who then snatch them and book appointments. One dealer reported $13000 of profit from one 10% off maintenance which is just to show how powerful sites like Twitter of Facebook are to people. They take advantage of people like us on the web who strive for good deals on the web especially for us Canadians where rips are more likely to come by.
The only reason: they want your attention. It's simple. None of today's tactics bring as much money as the web. The web has spawned new business and new money opportunities like Twitter and Facebook. Not all businesses do it this way,but some do. Just like me, only mines isn't really for profit. The most I would do is say products that are interesting.
The final thing: take advantage of these opportunities. These companies want your business so give it to them.Not all of them succeed, but heres my quote
"If life were perfect then life shouldn't exist at all for thou no meaning"-HuluJ
