My new favorite thing to do on Facebook is to have discussions on my wall via the comments. I propose a question or thought as part of my status update, and then everyone else supplies their opinions by leaving a comment on my status. It’s fun. This past week I asked about Gmail and web browsers. I took a screen shot of both discussions. Read through and feel free to comment here if you didn’t get a chance to on Facebook.
I have been using Gmail since 2004 (the year it started) and I have always felt that it has been way ahead of the competition in terms of features, usability, and speed. However, I also have a Yahoo, Hotmail, Live Mail, and a few other accounts. I use these all for specific things (like handling spam). Gmail has always just worked well for me. It has features that I can’t live without anymore like labels (better than folders), search, filters, chat, labs, themes, todo list, etc. You can read more about Gmail on their blog. Let’s see what everyone else said.

Most people that aren’t tech savvy or that are uninterested in computers seem to use the internet for at least two things: email and videos. YouTube has been the standard for sharing videos on the web for a while. Google made an important purchase back when they acquired YouTube in 2006. Many websites have tried to compete, including many of the social networking platforms like Facebook.
However, Facebook video just isn’t as good for sharing videos. Facebook lacks the ability (or at least chooses to neglect the ability) of sharing videos to an audience outside of Facebook. You can share videos with your Facebook friends, or anybody else on Facebook, but you cannot embed your videos on other websites, like your blog. I’m going to show you how to get around that and be able to steal videos from Facebook.
