Drunken Facebook Postings
We have all heard numerous times from several sources that we need to be careful about what we put on Facebook. For the sake of our careers, our relationships, and our dignity, some things need to be kept to ourselves. But what happens when we lose our inhibitions and decide to disclose unsavory information to the world at 3 AM? Well there is now a solution to this problem thanks to SocialMediaSobrietyTest.com. They have developed a series of tests you must pass before you are allowed to post anything on your Facebook. Here comes technology to rescue us from technology! There is more information at http://news.cnet.com/8301-17852_3-20021779-71.html?tag=cnetRiver. Let me know what y'all think.

and the innovations just keep on rolling..... maybe they can make an iPhone app as well.
ReplyDeleteawesome topic ... absolutely awesome ... they need to make this device work for text messages
ReplyDeletethen again ... textfromlastnight would go out of business
Absolutely fabulous idea. I have definitly had some nights where I wish facebook had had this. Actually I am pretty sure Gmail has a system like this you can set up, where you must do a math problem to be able to send an email to specific people!
ReplyDeleteAmazing, simply amazing! Wish there was some similar prevention applicable for the different scenarios “life” serves us. Texting and Facebook messaging are just one side of the coin. Imagine some sort of prevention device that simply gets you home whenever you find yourself in such an awkward situation. For example, Google driverless car?

If you think it is amazing to have driverless cars, you should look at what the military has planned. They want to get rid of all of their pilots. At least, they want to get rid of all the pilots in planes. Instead the pilots would be in a calm location flying their planes without being subject to the anxiety and harsh g forces of flying. Now they will be able to increase speed and maneuvers beyond what humans could handle.

As for the Facebook drunken censor, I definitely think it would be more useful for text messaging because you cant really delete texts from your friend's phones. On facebook, at least you can minimize the exposure by deleting the comments in the morning!
ReplyDeleteDid you see on SNL last Saturday the skit in "mom" censorship? It changed all your comments into "mom" friendly statements.
