As for my network, it has expanded to a total of 38Ghz, with more to be added in the near future. Per my plans, I should have a minimum of 5 or 6 dual cores and my main AMD Quad Core. On a side note my main network backbone and gaming systems are all running on gigabyte LAN.This is a must have for transferring large files. Below is a more recent video of these in action on a LAN Party I held.

                                          
Easter is coming up and with your friends hiding eggs on your profile Facebook decided to get in on the game. If eggs could have smell online, which they eventually will, the one they did not hide so well on ours – smells quite bad.
 
Ever since the new layout my friends there are mentioning they do not like the new at all. In fact, I noticed one has already signed up for twitter and more are soon to follow.

What is Facebook thinking? Making more money with the current design, or keeping twitter from stealing their thunder as the old saying goes? First it was the terms and conditions and now this. If they do not switch back to the previous layout, my predictions are, they will soon start noticing less traffic and more account deletions.

As I am into several different categories of interest e.g. Web Development, Radio Station, and then my “friends”, I am trying to decide if multiple twitter accounts are best or just one. Not sure if I want the one group to see the related topics of the other. I do not want to turn off the one, from twitters to the other, and so on.

As a Web Developer and a user I ask, why not place add sense off to the right as we do not like how the side bar is currently. We would not mind seeing humorous video ads per related interest categories at the top of this section as well. This would take care of financial concerns – if any. I, for one, also do not mind seeing an occasional public opinion poll or questionnaire on the main stream or wall.

For some reason people like seeing their own status as we once could, “Joseph is done posting a new – no to Face book blog”. Perhaps it is an ego thing but whatever, – put it back. Put all of it back, or prepare to die a very slow and painful death!

First along these lines… gone is the post button  on the wall when you first log in. It is on your profile, however. Is this normal? 

Next the chat feature does not work as it should in Firefox although at this time it may be due to the most recent Add Block Plus plugin. “If you do not have it get it as it may save you the trouble of being infected from online adds.”

This is only a very quick observation about the sites loss of quality. My suggestion? Add more servers and network capacity. It really destroys the joy of using the service. We really do not want to go back to MySpace.

One last note and if not already in place it should be. Tools to check various profile load speeds around various parts of the country and the world. These should be tested using other servers aside from Facebook.

Update:

After checking several things I am not sure what to think. Both IE 6 and 8 and also Firefox seem to have trouble. Chrome and Opera work as they should with the site. This means that it rules out add block plus on Firefox partially and as IE also has trouble. It could be a browser and site problem both. 

Conclusion:

My apologies to Facebook. It appears to be the first filter selection that users can select in the Add Block Plus plugin.
After uninstalling and reinstalling and selecting a different one it FB seems to act more normally. Further testing is required but this seems to conclude the matter. Folks this is how you debug issues.
