Dont lie, it controls your life.
Social Networking is now everywhere. From Twitter to Facebook, the world seems to care when people are 'liftin', 'wokrin', or 'sleepin'. I've heard countless people complain about social networking and its recent takeover. Well, I've got bad news.
Ya see, two Stanford University graduates got tired of their boring jobs as software engineers for some of the biggest companies in the world, so they ventured off on their own. Their new company is very similar to twitter, however, instead of status updates, their company gives.... (brace yourself).... purchase updates! That's right, http://www.blippy.com/ tells all your friends that you bought Miley Cyrus's new songs off iTunes, or that you bought a Double Stack from Wendy's.
Will it take off? I'm guessing yes. The company received over 1.6 million in startup funding alone, and they've already partnered with huge companies like Amazon, iTunes, and Mastercard.
I suggest heading over to blippy and registering JUST IN CASE the idea really takes over. That way, you'll have your favorite username already registered!
