They are doing maintenance on my account so I couldn't log on to Facebook and spend half an hour updating my status this morning. So instead I had to read a newspaper article(gasp!):

CBC ‘wish list' experiment dogged by controversy

The CBC decided to try an social media experiment this month, as reported in the Globe and Mail:

— in which Canadians are encouraged to visit a Facebook page to post their hope for the future — comes to a close this weekend with a call to ban abortion as the No. 1 entry as of Wednesday.

For the second day in a row complete strangers have skyped me, tried to chat with me and this time sent a little hug emoticon.

Sorry dudes, what kind of pervert needs to use a chat application to get their rocks off. Go do what normal perverts do: Hang out in a park touching your nuts, then I only have to acknowledge your existence when I am walking the dog. Leave me alone at home I am trying to finish my work.

I am also getting kinda paranoid that somewhere out there is the web2.0 equivalent of the public bathroom stall and some mean mean person has written; "For a good time skype..." and then my skype id. Which is not only incredibly unfriendly but also untrue - ask any of my friends, I am not really a good time. Manageable in short doses, but good is pushing it.
