Many people have a problem with the fact that Facebook is so completely ingrained into our collective conscience. What was once a cool place to share photos with friends and family at University has now become a place for families to unite and for parents to keep an eye on their college-loving offspring. It has come a long way from the campus-based information and communication site that was its founder’s initial plan.

Over the last five years, it has not just been Facebook’s rise which has been so famous, but the fall of other social networks which once competed with the big blue and white monster. Myspace, once the crowned king of the internet (with the most popular website of them all, and traffic and advertising figures to match) has now become an afterthought, a joke made by ‘cool people’ who talk about what is now completely ‘out’. Their fall was due to a mixture of factors, one of which was the Facebook took the social network experience and made it ‘clean’ and thoughtful.

How did it do this? It removed the trash graphics, the email forwards, the glitzy text and served the public what they really wanted – information and communication. This first came in the form of ’status updates’ and wall posting. What is a status update? It’s something which Facebook users use to give information about what they are doing at any specific moment. Some also use them to share web addresses or funny websites which they think their friends might be interested in. This function on Facebook was completely new – it changed the face of messaging from ‘push’ (like email) to ‘mini blog’ (like now, Twitter).

Wall posting was similar – it was like walking over to someone’s own bulletin board and leaving a note for them. People would read other messages on their friends boards (also known as Facebook stalking) and then connect with new people. It was a cyber revolution. There was, however, always something missing – the live chat feature which some people thought would never be able to be integrated into a social network.

That’s when Facebook chat was introduced. It had always been the intention of the biggest social network in the world to constantly keep innovating and evolving, to stay ahead of the curve. When they introduced their chat function many people thought that they had made a mistake – the beta process was a little slow and had errors – the javascript sometimes made the pages disappear or act strangely, but after ironing out all of these issues, it turned out that they had struck gold. Facebook chat was one of the most popular clients on the internet, and its fans were wild for its clean cut style and cool colours.

One thing seemed to be missing however – Facebook chat emoticons! Where were the colouful smileys and symbols that were in nearly every other chat client available on the web? Text emotions were ok to use for some people, but generally speaking it was unheard of for an organization to create software like Facebook chat and not include Facebook chat emoticons listed for people to find. So where were they? The answer was that they were hidden in the software itself! After hours of testing, users managed to find a full list of the icons available for use in the chat program, and many were surprised by the different types and styles.

We will provide more exact information about which emoticons for Facebook chat are available in a later post, but for now just know this – they are some of the coolest and most fun symbols around! You can find some standard ones such as a love heart, smiley face, angel and devil – but also some strange emoticons or rare ones like a robot emoticon or a shark smiley! There is even a penguin! Keep reading for much more information about Facebook chat emoticons and how to use them!

The sherif of Lost Hills indicated that it stopped three 13 and 12-year-old males accused in one of the cases of threats across Internet and in others two of blows inside the school.

Four children and three girls were an attacks object because they were red-haired in Wright Middle School.

The two companies are in an expanded partnership announced Wednesday, which will enable Yahoo users with Facebook accounts to blend material from the two web sites without having to leave one site for the other.

This move will deepen the bond established when Yahoo home pages began presenting a glimpse of Facebook updates.

The current deal will intergrate the Facebook Connect service across yahoo, which will allow users to see their Facebook streams on yahoo’s email, Flickr, news, sports and finance sites. On the flip side, personal meterial from Yahoo such as e-mail, movie reviews, and photos can be more easily share on Facebook. Users will also be able to view and update status messages from Yahoo.

These tools are scheduled to be activated somewhere in the first half of 2010.

Big fuss has been caused by the couple who slipped in in a holiday in the White House. Nobody had invited them. His name was not appearing in the exclusive list made in the White House. And, nevertheless, Michaele and Tareq Salahi – members of the jet set set place and applicants to inform in a reality show were exhibiting on his page of Facebook their photos in the dinner of the State that on Tuesday Barack and Michelle Obama celebrated in honor of the Indian prime minister, Manmohan Singh.

It is not known how the Salahi – businessmen vine growers and fans of the pole of the north of Virginia, the nearby state of the federal capital managed to bring in in the White House without one of the coveted invitations for the dinner of the State, the social event of the year in Washington.

Once inside, the Salahi did photos to themselves with the marines who were in the entry, with vice-president Joe Biden, with the chief of office of the White House, Rahm Emanuel, with the journalist star Katie Couric and with the mayor of the city, Adrian Fenty, between others. They were not late in hanging the photos on Facebook. There is no news about that will manage to have dinner – every place was reserved for a guest it is not even clear when they left.
