Back in Motion

Until there's a BlackBerry version of Instagram provided for the Z10, people are still going to be fucking with the iPhone 5. 

Other than that, I can't wait for this Sunday's Superbowl and Primitive's Spring 2013 apparel line that might feature Filipina model Christine Mendoza. Until then, nothing else matters. 

TWO YEARS ON TWITTER

Exactly, two years ago, I opened a Twitter account.

I created it because earlier that day, my original Facebook account was suspended and that was my main outlet aside from the dilapidating Myspace to express my thoughts. Plus my iWeb page was already expired that time. So I had no choice but to join Twitter. See back then, Twitter wasnt as hyped and crazy as it is now. No businesses had it, only a limited amount of celebrities had one, and it was hardly ever mentioned on the news until that day.

Then Elect-President Barack Obama got sworn in as President of the United States and CNN mentioned on how you can follow his updates on Twitter during the telecast of his swearing in, which I thought it was either him or someone from the Secret Service writing his Twitter profile. I started to like it and went wild on Twitter for a few months despite that no one I knew joined the site or even signed up for it. I met some people over through that site, including this one kid who literally worships Kim Kardashian. I managed to meet him in person and I took him to see his favorite celebrity. After that, the site turned into a you heard it first source where breaking news and deaths, both real and fake, are being mention and raved about on that site.

I had thoughts of deleting the account a few months after I re-joined Facebook, but I decided to keep it to say some observations or some shit thats on my mind in under 140 characters. Its pretty useful if you have a Blackberry or a iPhone or any smartphone device so that you can keep viewers informed wherever you are.

By the way, there hasnt been any decent news or current events today other than those mental cases who went postal at different High Schools blowing off other students and law enforcement civilians. The only news from today thats worth useful to a fifth grader for his or her Current Event assignment is Jesse James being engaged to Hollywood Tattoo artist Kat Von D. Yeah, I didnt want to bring that up, but why would people be interested to being informed about a guy who cheated on the ever talented Sandra Bullock over a Tattoo artist? Whatever, Hollywood is know for its weirdness, and I live 15 miles from there in the San Fernando Valley.

THE BEST OF BOTH WORDS

As I'm in the hunt for a new mobile device and trying to get back into the cellular smartphone game, which is unofficially required to make contacts and acquaintances nowadays, this decision has just plagued me for a while. I can't beleive I'm actually saying this... but should I get the Blackberry Torch or the iPhone 3GS for 50 dollars? No Andrioids please, way out of my price range.

Pick Your Poison

I'm not surprised the just-released Windows Phone isn't on there, cause it obvious on how they're viewed.

The result of Tom Anderson's Absence

The fuck happened with MySpace? I just went on for the hell of it since I haven't been on it for a long time (except Myspace Music which used to be Imeem for listening to streaming music), and then I see their new layout which looks completely foreign to me. I know that Twitter is gonna do the same shit in the coming months, but DAMN, it looks like the new Myspace layout is now geared towards anyone under 12 years of age.

I remember the very first time I heard about MySpace was back in August 2005. My friend Stephen called me and told me to check it out. At first, I though it was some urban youth site or a knockoff of Classmates.com (I had an account back in 2003 for Frost Middle School. I was the only one there) but then a week later he showed it to me and I was like "Everyone is putting out their dirty laundry in public". I also remember when certain profiles would always crashed any computer that I would be at, cause those profiles would be flooded with high memory photos, excessive HTML codes and those streaming Music Video codes which was pre-Youtube.

That site didn't get crazy until the middle of my senior year of High School between February and June, or after it got bought out by News Corp., which heavily promoted the site. I though the site was very weak and a waste of time, but I gave in on January 2008 when this one girl I met at Pierce College made me get one cause that was the only means of communication she had (no cell phone cause she doesn't like to use her minutes). Prior to that, I was only using Facebook, my original profile before it got removed from Facebook's headquarters for hitting on girls (I'm a guy). Now I don't even talk to that girl anymore since she started spitting out her conservative thoughts which I didn't tend to like, and she got me into that shit.

Fast forward to the present now. Those who were one of the original pioneers of having a Myspace Profile five years ago have either retired from social networking, or their raising a family during a challenging recession and working just about everyday at the same time to make end meets. Everyone else jumped ship to Facebook after that rich bastard Mark Zuckerburg made the site accessible to Kids, their parents, and anybody else without a university e-mail address that's also not labeled a full time college student. Social networking has completely changed the way people communicate. Its used to be completely underground but alot of companies and rich investors have thrown so much money into it that those site are now well known and recognized. Hell, almost every site you go to regardless of the nature whether its shopping or news journalism or the Adult sites (again, I'm a guy), they'll sometimes have you log in using your Facebook account or whatever account or it'll let you "like" any article that's on that page.

That shows how serious it has gotten. I always see something about Facebook every other day on CNN or the Huffington Post, whereas back in 2007 when I first got the account, the media didn't give a shit about it unless there was some underage girl who used an alias as being a 22 year old Ivy League student and gets murdered for meeting some mental freak on there. But the bottom line is that no one uses Myspace anymore. Everyone thinks that the site should be shut down by now, but that won't be the case as long as Rupert Murdoch and the white collars at News Corp still own the rights to that site, which is one of the main reasons why Myspace founder Tom Anderson left.

Speaking of communication, there's this new trend that I just noticed yesterday about this new "thing" called KIK. Alot of people have been talking about it this past week. They say that is a like a free version of RIM's BlackBerry Messenger, which I've never used and seen before in my life and I'm proud to say that. Plus I don't own a Blackberry smartphone (too expensive and I can't get work here in this broke-ass state), and if I did, then I'd talk more about this KIK application. I hope that shit doesn't send the "Telephone Call" out of existence just like Kodak did with Kodachrome and the way Sony did by retiring the production of the Walkman, which both got me very upset. I'd rather hear a female's nice sexy voice instead of reading her one word response from answering a question that I took up texting for 5 minutes to send to her.
