And (whatever the calendar says) today is the first day of summer in Providence. Plus! For a limited time and at no added bonus, a massive solar flare is barreling towards Earth at some 1,400 kilometres per second! Whee! In the house, it's 85F and climbing! Outside, 88F and also climbing. Whee ( Read more... )

Thankfully I keep a pretty tight rein on my FB security settings, but I am no naif to believe they don't change how it works when not looking. I think my friend Ben in the UK summed up this newest wrinkle best:

All of our details have been on umpteen databases for a decade or more. As a private citizen, I can find someone in a heartbeat if I want to. What do people think the electoral roll is actually used for? Or registering that you own a car? And putting a personal profile of yourself online on the biggest social networking site in the world?"
