Important News!!

You can all relax! Facebook has posted in its blog that several drives failed last Friday, but that they are going to be fixed as quickly as possible! Apparently, the failure resulted in about 10-15% of users photos being lost. Facebook is on top of it though and all of your pictures will be restored. Is this really an issue that is worthy of its own article? I think that if so many people are addicted to Facebook that a few lost picures are a sign of the coming apocalypse, then maybe we shouldn't fix it. I have noticed that a lot of people cant even go to class without checking for notifications of their iphone. Even employers are able to rely on facebook to find things out about potential employees. I'm not against facebook. I think that it is nice to have an outlet that allows me to talk to friends occasionally, but they also invented telephones for that purpose. I just think that people need to chill out and step away from technology for a little bit. You can also talk to people in person if you go outside every so often.
