Nov 10th
Speaking of Orkut, I finally caved. I had an invite to Orkut years ago and never really thought much about joining a social network like this one. There was OldFriends around and that was annoying me enough, I didn’t need more. And no, I will not join MySpace! I can’t stand that place. Anyway… The…
Yahoo! adds YIM to email

You know what Chris, I really cant be bothered wasting so much time on you. You’re just not worth the effort. You’re like that mosquito that buzzes around at night but never bites.
