(I would recommend Google Reader, the best product Google has made since search & mail, but they neutered it to try to drive traffic to G+. How's that working, Google? PS please re-de-lobotomize Google Reader.) NOW can everyone just get a blog & use a feed reader?

No, Google, I DON'T actually want to use my real name on my Youtube account. WTF. Why would you even think that was a good idea?

If you're not already using it, try it out at socialfixer.com - it's a free plugin that forces Facebook to work the way you choose. No, I don't work for them or get kickbacks or anything like that. I'm genuinely endorsing it because I use it. Social Fixer will probably take care of this.

Auto-play ads would curtail this as that particular PC does not have the computing power to handle that in addition to the programs necessary for work. So based on my one person sample, a net loss to advertising viewership. I leave FB up in the background at work.
