Too Funny! Reminds me of the San Mateo Cat Shelter where one of the cats loves to sleep on top of the laster printer where the paper comes out... - Greg Lato

sweet - Eric Hofmann
Haha, Jason, wow 406 likes, madness! :-D - Kol Tregaskes
Madness? THIS. IS. FAX CAT. - Mike Nayyar
Well 452 likes is the record, hmm I think that is pushing it. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Awesome. - Alex Scoble
this is underfaksink at its worzt - Petr Buben
Petr, I have no idea what you mean, but thank you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - Petr Buben
Ah, OK, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
there ya have me ! :] .... see, to be honest with you, i saw this pic couple days ago, but i let it go, without posting it ..... what does that make me? :] - Petr Buben
OMGosh, just 23 more likes to beat this: http://beta.friendfeed.com/imified... ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
433 Like ! Wow ! - Like
Freemor, yes very cute! :-D - Kol Tregaskes
cute~ - Chan Pen
that's why is called a cat scan and not a cat fax. - Phil Maxwell
oh ... a scan. not fax?! .... it looked to me like she was faxink - Petr Buben
Just 5 more likes needed. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Try rolling the cat through a press first. Flat cats fit into the fax easier. - Bob Blunk
Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Hehe, Joelle. This is now tied for the 'likes' top stop. One more then, hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Ok, over the top now. - Greg Guitarbuster
Hehe, Greg. Blimey! Erm, is that not far from 500 likes now? ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Bloody marvelous, Kol. Wish I could like it again... too cute (and help u to 500 likes). - Roberto Bonini
I couldn't believe it when I logged on from the morning over posting it and saw it was at something 200 likes! You all have a strange fetish with cats and fax machines, hehe. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Am I the only one who saw this and their first thought was - My goodness did someone break that cats neck? It still freaks me out a little - Steve C
Steve, it does look a little out of place, but cats are pretty bendy. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
They fax much better if you flatten them first. What? - Kevin Pedraja
LOL, Kevin. - Kol Tregaskes
i can also imagine the cat going there cause it is snug and warm - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Ey, it would be a tad warm on there, especially after a long working day. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes
Caption which needs to be said aloud: Uh Ohz, I'm totally FAXED! - sofarsoShawn
Hehe, Shawn. 10 more for the big 5-0-0. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Countdown! 8 more now! - Mike Nayyar
bump for more likes - Josh Haley
One more!! :-) - Kol Tregaskes
I took mine away, too much pressure. - Steve C
Wow, there we go, 500 likes!! Thank you all!! :-D - Kol Tregaskes
I think Fax Kitty deserves a prize for that. - Kendra <3 Three Lions
меня, признаться, подзаебал этот кот - Парадокс Смейла

Hehe, Roberto. - Kol Tregaskes

It could! Keep bumping it up! - imabonehead

Kol, congratulations, you won the Friendfeed Award for the most likes entry! - Jérôme Flipo
Kol is this from your rival: Squashy Cat Photography? - sofarsoShawn

Oops, yes you're right, Bec. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Isn't it illegal to fax a pussy? - aerobroken
It's really only social convention which regards it as inappropriate, same with Xeroxing it, like one does with their b__tocks. Wait are we still talking about cats cats here or... - sofarsoShawn
OMGosh 700+ likes now!! LOL. Thank you all 702 of you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Wow, not so bad huh? \u) - ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,

Caturday is tommorow ... Fax Cat on Saturday .. - johnpiercy
Must try this at home! - Anthony K. Valley ©
Bumping some old great posts. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
Now THAT is a classic! - Allan Besselink

This is very good humor! - TrafficBug
Hey, we've hit the 700-like mark. :-) - Kol Tregaskes
just a couple thousand to go - JSNFLMNG
LOL - Smeerch
__awesome__ - Matteo Scotuzzi
and it got resurrected once again! - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
I managed to do it once, but I don't think I'm going to do it again. The results were a little fuzzy. - Seth Greenblatt
Louis Gray
So... it turns out I have a new nephew, born 5 hours ago. My sister's labor was 32 hours. My mom, dad and youngest sister were there (as was the baby's mom, of course). But nobody called us. Odd.
Found out on a friend's wall... that they "liked" a photo from Sister A of Sister B with the baby. Huh? - Louis Gray
The same thing happened with me and my sister's last child. I was a little taken back. - Jesse Stay
That's a little....weird. To say the least. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
Family is so weird. They rushed down to be at my sister's side, but we did our double birth solo last year. (Solo being Kristine and me, of course) No family ever made it to the hospital. - Louis Gray
That always happens to us, not just for babies, too - must be an oldest child thing or something. It irks me to no end. My sister lives the same distance from my parents as when we lived in Virginia and my Mom is at her house every other weekend. We used to have to beg to get her out to our house in Virginia. - Jesse Stay
It's always tough to explain that to the wife - Jesse Stay
If I had known... I would have been at the hospital waiting for the Twins - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Sorry to hear it, LG. - Spidra Webster
Well congratulations on the new addition and, er, sorry you found out this way. - WorldofHiglet
Johnny, let's just say I can always rely on you. :) - Louis Gray
Congrats, Louis! And, as you say, family's can be weird.. - Andrew Terry
Johnny, you could of cut the cord because Louis didn't want to. - Kristine Gray
I got to catch our 3rd child - caught it, cut the cord and everything. :-P - Jesse Stay
I caught Georgia and cut the cord as well. - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Kristine, by Australian law, I'd have to say 'CRIKEY, she's a beauty!' ala Steve Irwin for each twin. - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Didn't want to? Huh? Revisionist history! The docs did it for both and it wasn't discussed. :) - Louis Gray
LOL... I love how Louis just dropped the charge of Revisionist history into this argument. The Aussie equivalant is less diplomatic :) - Johnny Worthington from iPhone
Ha. Of note, my littlest sister cut the cord for the nephew. Now that's odd. :) - Louis Gray
I found out a sister of mine was married this way. - Uncle CW™
Yes, CW - generally when we are married we cut the cord from our parents ;-) (or some do, at least) - Jesse Stay
Louis, you stated from the time I got pg that you didn't want to cut the cord. - Kristine Gray
...breaks out popcorn... - Jesse Stay
Actually social media makes getting together with family so much less dysFUNctional. Great aunt Edna can't be that annoying over the internet as in person. - Kristine Gray
My statement above was that I found out a sister was married on a post on facebook. No notice, no invitation, no nothing. Just a post on Facebook. - Uncle CW™
I'm so glad my wife's not on FriendFeed :-) (she keeps toying with the idea though) - Jesse Stay
That is weird CW. - Kristine Gray
Did the whole family find out that way or just you? - Kristine Gray
Kristine I'm glad you're on though :-) - Jesse Stay
thanks, I should be reading Silent Spring but this is much better - Kristine Gray
The Family in other states... I think.. She had some local family there but swore them to secrecy about it from others. - Uncle CW™
Why the secrecy? - Kristine Gray
I understand wanting a small wedding, but a notice would be nice. I could of sent a gift. - Uncle CW™
No clue. both of them are 18 and he is off to Iraq three days afterwards. Almost sounded like a bad WW2 story. - Uncle CW™
18? wow! - Kristine Gray
Old enough to go through it without parents approvals or anything. - Uncle CW™
so no parents there? - Kristine Gray
Her mom and step dad were there, no idea about the grooms parents. - Uncle CW™
what would we do without families to keep everything interesting? - Kristine Gray
Careful with CW, Kristine. This talk isn't cheap. "Answers: $1, Short answers: $5, Correct answers: $25, Sarcastic comments: Free" So, if he's not charging you, you can't believe it. - Louis Gray
Yeah no biggie. The choices of young adults are what Fox TV shows are made from.. so I guess this is just another story for another episode of Young beautiful rich somethings doing stupid things without thinking. - Uncle CW™
married at 18- yeah, that ALWAYS works out - Kristine Gray
well, i guess sometimes it does - Kristine Gray
I certainly hope the best for them. Honestly do. Its just interesting that its Facebook that was used to announce and not really from them, but from another family member that was there. In the early 1900's being sent a written letter might of caused a similar shock but there would be time to digest the information before writing back and even then it could of been weeks or month that... more... - Uncle CW™
Generally, I'd agree with you, Kristine, that 18 is too early. But my mom was 19 when she married my dad and they've been together 45 years. - Spidra Webster
Gratz and :( all rolled into one. - rowlikeagirl
Jesse has an interesting point. Maybe it IS an oldest child thing. I'm the oldest, and I had my son all alone, with no one there. When my two sisters had their kids, the whole family camped out for hours. Even so, congratulations to Uncle Louis and Aunt Kristine! - Trish R
That is a scratch-your-head-and-go-hmmmm kind of moment. Nonetheless, welcome new little one! - Martha
Maybe this is a son/daughter thing that daughters "need" Mom there more than sons so (and daughter-in-laws have their own Moms)? Family dynamics are always unusual. Hey, when did Kristine join FriendFeed? I've been missing out. - Internet Strategist
hey congratulations LG - Life's Good - Thomas Power
congrats! - Ryan Petty
Awe. Congrats to your family! - H0llywoodWh0re
did you quickly reserve the twitter name? - Allen Stern
I'm sorry you found out that way. Just a touch odd. :( - Yolanda

Rochelle bought a hacksaw so that she could saw in pieces some frozen fish. The saw's been laying on the dining room table. I keep walking past it.

Congratulations, Louis! Will definitely contact you in the near future about our site. - Christopher Galtenberg from iPhone
Congratulations. There is certainly a huge need for Social Media guidance. I need to know more so I can recommend your company regularly. Few really understand how to prioritize their time for maximum results while still keeping track of the constantly shifting sands. - Internet Strategist

I was on EconTalk with Russ Roberts last week: http://www.econtalk.org/archive... Finally got a chance to listen, and think it came out pretty good :) Let me know what you think.
Cool, checking it out now... - Susan Beebe
I agree that it came out pretty good. Is that the raw conversation, or is it edited? - Gary Burd
Thanks Gary. It's the raw conversation, I believe. - Paul Buchheit
this is really good... :) that's because Paul is uber smart and that makes this really fun - Susan Beebe
I was pleasantly surprised to see it show up on my iPhone. Great conversation. - Cliff Gerrish
I listened earlier this week and liked it. - Bruce Lewis
Russ rocks! I'm an avid Econtalk viewer . I thought the interview was good and useful considering I work on the product you championed. - Hareesh Nagarajan
I was listening to the show while running some errands this afternoon. Had to give friend feed a try and more importantly see the toe shoes. - Eric Nelson
very good Paul so open and honest - Thomas Power
Just got to listen. Nice podcast, I liked the perspective on Google, on mindshare problems, and how you got your "toe shoes" in there :) Thanks! - Vincent van Wylick
Great interview Paul. - τorƍue

Also, at our friend's wedding today.... I rolled off 1,500+ shots.... I wasn't the official photographer either... I have a sickness :P
Yep, that sounds like me when I'm out and about too. All praise digital! - Mark H
No you don't, that is quite normal, actually :-) - Rene Wirtz
now just don't charge them $750 for the files =D - Mike Chelen
i have that same sickness - Imabug
I have the same sickness as well - a friend of mine launches their band on thursday - I'll be there. I'll take hundreds of pictures if not thousands. - Alternating Reality Books
what camera do you use? i'm interested in better photography but can never justify even entry level DSLRs...just saw a review on Canon G11 and it's quite nice - brainno722 (Peter)

NEW! Thanks to Week 209 SOBs: Successful and Outstanding Bloggers Let me introduce the bloggers who have ea.. http://www.successful-blog.com/1...
Louis Gray
Friendfeed co-founder Buchheit: Most interesting part of Facebook is that it’s not Google - http://entrepreneur.venturebeat.com/2009...
I like this part, "Even if you’re not going to start a startup right away. If you’ve been in your job for awhile, you should quit. Google was really comfortable. I knew all the people. It’s important to do things that will make you uncomfortable." - imabonehead
I totally agree. Comfort leads to stagnation - Kevin L
Quitting to be uncomfortable assumes that you have enough money to make it awhile without being paid, which many people don't. - Robert Felty
I love what he said about how it's dangerous to believe that once one is done with school they can stop learning. Life is one big learning opportunity. - April Buchheit
Robert, having enough money for sure helps. And, because it's reality and not a novel, one needs to be realistic and not romantic about one's chances. But many people, perhaps most, have more actual resources to draw upon than they think, so they talk themselves into keeping the life they have. Young "exceeds expectations" people with strong friendships, a little savings, and a lot of... more... - Daniel Dulitz
I've pretty much moved on whenever I've felt that there wasn't anything new to learn, or if I wanted to try something that couldn't be learned where I was. Getting comfortable somehow just doesn't seem right. - Deepak Singh
I agree with Daniel. Money certainly helps but age is a bigger factor. It's easier to take risks and make mistakes when you've got a lot of time to make things right if they go wrong. - Benjamin Golub
I can tell you from experience: NOT having enough money can be a powerful motivator. - Hayes Haugen

New StumbleUpon launches as "between Twitter and Google": http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... Try the new design here: http://www.stumbleupon.com/trynow...
New design was buggy when adding images when I tested it a couple of days ago. - Internet Strategist
Gary Burd
I noticed that some users are posting their activity on YouTube to Twitter using an application named "Google". Is this a new feature? Does posting to Twitter work for other Google properties?
What is this google you speak of?? - Roberto Bonini
It's a new social feature YouTube implemented last month. The fact that they chose the app name 'Google' implies that other properties will soon follow suit. - Kevin Fox
What is this twitter you speak of?? - Louis Gray
YouTube? Is that anything like YouLenz? http://lawandorder.wikia.com/wiki... - Daniel J. Pritchett
That's the Autoshare feature: http://www.google.com/support.... It publish your (customizable) activity feed on Google Reader and/or third party networks (Facebook and Twitter). I chose to share on Reader only, so that Reader2Twitter https://reader2twitter.appspot.com can post my whole Reader stream on Twitter within seconds (PubSubHubbub). - Jérôme Flipo
Yup, Jerome is right. Tis called Autoshare. - Itachi

This Is a Photoshop and It Blew My Mind - Photosketch
"PhotoSketch is an internet-based program that can take the rough, labeled sketch on the left and automagically turn it into the naff montage on the right." - Paul Buchheit from Bookmarklet
Wow, that is awesome. The authors list cracked me up: "Tao Chen, Ming-Ming Cheng, Ping Tan, Ariel Shamir, and Shi-Min Hu". One of these things is not like the others. - Jim Norris
What is the definition of naff here? Here in the UK it effectively means stupid/silly/rubbish. - Travis Koger
Yes, I can see it from the pixels.. :) - Jemm
Wow, co-developed at NUS! although they've managed to mis-spell Singapore - arunthampi
That's mind-bogglingly cool... - Andrew Terry
Unb-freaking-livable!! - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
their site is down already... - Maхx Tee
pretty neat but when i downloaded some higher resolution examples in their pdf, they didnt look quite as good - bob
it's not so much about the resolution as it is about the intelligence of the system. Pretty cool! - Vincent van Wylick
That seems so unreal! OnLive looks more real then this! Its blowing my mind - Devin
Was just reading about this in a spanish photography blog. Amazing program. - Juan Pablo González
Wow. That is so cool! - Zachary TG

Does anyone know of an existent PC laptop that is 17", decent looking (maybe a gaming laptop because it typically is actually aesthetically pleasing), with an integrated webcam?
...or are all of you Mac people? ;) - Tamar Weinberg
MacBook Pro is what I have. :P - Andrew Trinh from iPhone
I know a great Mac that is 17" and runs Windows. Define "PC" ;-) - Jesse Stay
I think the Dell XPS M1710 was a hot machine. Unfortunately, no webcam and Dell's 17"s are now Alienwares. And Lenovo doesn't have an integrated webcam as far as I can tell. - Tamar Weinberg
Have you looked at Sony? - Jesse Stay
Don't know much about Sony. I have always been a Dell fangirl. I want something with reliable service and on-site tech support. Can Sony offer that? - Tamar Weinberg
After my dad's experience and previous experience of my own I'll never recommend a Dell again due to their service - Jesse Stay
Sorry Jesse - I won't stop recommending them - I've never had a problem, and in my immediate family, we've had maybe 15-20 Dells since 1994. - Tamar Weinberg
Do a search for "Dell Hell": http://www.google.com/search... - if you've had good experience, fine, but I'll never recommend them after my experiences. I don't care if they have a Twitter account. - Jesse Stay
There's no such thing as a gaming laptop. - Alex Scoble
I have a toshiba. I have had good experience with them. This is my second one. - RetiredTeacherD
You could get a FN Fragbook drx i7. ;-) - Christopher A Carr
Alex, I'm looking for one with pretty lights and stuff. Not so much a gaming laptop in the true sense of the word, but one that is more aesthetically pleasing than the boring laptops I see everywhere else. :P - Tamar Weinberg
I know much about Dell Hell, but I'm not convinced enough to steer clear of Dell, Jesse. I've been using them for over a decade with nothing but good results. - Tamar Weinberg
OK, carry on then. :) Just making sure that people know that gaming and laptops don't mix well...unless it's Facebook gaming. - Alex Scoble
BTW what's your budget? - Alex Scoble
haha, yeah, I don't game. I just like lights. ;) And Christopher, that's insane. Too costly. Alex - I'm not sure I'm buying anything right now, but I'd probably get a refurb anyway. I don't need the best processor or 8GB RAM either. I'd say $2k max. - Tamar Weinberg
And no Sony can't offer reliability. - Alex Scoble
I'd say look at Lenovo, but they aren't sexy at all. - Alex Scoble
Agree with Alex if you can find one with a camera. Lenovos are the best PC laptops out there, but they're ugly as anything. - Jesse Stay
They work great with Linux, too ;-) - Jesse Stay
Lenovo seems promising BUT the machine doesn't look customizable at all. I'm bothered by that. - Tamar Weinberg
Not sure what you mean by customizable - are any laptops really customizable? - Jesse Stay
Yeah Jesse, if you go with Dell. You get to choose what processor you want, the RAM type and amount, the size HDD, the video card options, the ethernet card options, etc etc etc. Lenovo preselects everything for you and I want something a little more hands on. - Tamar Weinberg
ah, okay - you mean before purchase. Makes sense. - Jesse Stay
Agrees with Jesse and Alex but let me qualify that. I won't buy a Sony. Agree about Dell and Lenovo. $2k buys a lot of PC. For that kind of money, I'd only buy a Mac and dual boot. - Mark Davidson from BuddyFeed
Have you looked at HP? I've got a 17 that's served me almost 4 years now. - Vaughn from BuddyFeed
Vaughn - nope but maybe I should. How's their on-site service? Do they have what I'm looking for? - Tamar Weinberg
Allow me to say that I have no intention of going Mac. I've owned 5 and returned/resold all but one that I don't even use. - Tamar Weinberg
(and I'll probably, erm, get Mac running through VMWare, despite obvious "obstacles." I might have been a Mac convert by now if I wasn't limited by hardware. I need to use Mac and Windows concurrently. If I can't get Mac OS X on my terms, I'll simply never actually move over to Mac.) - Tamar Weinberg
I'm just glad we all have choices. :-) - Jesse Stay
I used to buy Dell's before I switched to Mac and as long as you NEVER have to deal with their customer support they are OK. But they are a case study in what happens when you outsource to India and put people on the phones with your customers who have no clue what they are talking about once their scripts stop applying The damage they do to their brand far outweighs the money they save. - Ed Millard
I still don't encounter this, Ed. Maybe it's because I ALWAYS opt for the highest level of support? I know I put lots of wear and tear on my machines and I don't want to buy a low-level support plan. - Tamar Weinberg
LOL... well I never buy a support plan so that's probably it. I use the warrant support and they don't get a dime after that, not worth it to me. Their support people in Texas are good if you can get to them, their India front line has been horrible every time I've dealt with them. - Ed Millard
I don't have any experience w/ their on site support. The few times ive had to call it seemed their phone support was decent. I think you can find the specs you're looking for. Most have a nice matte finish. - Vaughn from BuddyFeed
I think the extended warranty is worth at least the peace of mind. Especially w/ laptops. If something happens to the screen out waranty you're pretty much screwed if you don't have an extension. - Vaughn from BuddyFeed
know a couple of folks with some decent Acer's that fit the description - Amber, Random Time Lord
I will stop computing before I buy another Acer again... - Mark Davidson from BuddyFeed
Yeah, I've always known Acer not to be big on support. But maybe I'm wrong. Either way, for whatever laptop I buy, I *will* get an extended support plan. - Tamar Weinberg
I can't answer that specific question; however, I have some pertinent info. Lenovo=IBM. When I left IBM in 2000 their PCs were solid hardware-wise but their warranty work was atrocious because it was outsourced to the lowest bidder. Not uncommon to send same one in over and over and never get it fixed properly. Meanwhile Dell outsourced their laptop warranty work to IBM who sent onsite... more... - Internet Strategist
I know that Lenovo=IBM. Disclosure for those FTC people: I own IBM stock. - Tamar Weinberg
macbook pro running vmware fusion is the way i roll ;) - mike "glemak" dunn
Yeah I am not getting a Macbook Pro. Read above as to why. Plus, I've already had 2 and returned them both. - Tamar Weinberg
I purchased a new Toshiba with those specs for my wife and she loves it. Not a 'gaming laptop' but look and processing speed are doing the trick for her. (don't know the model off the top of my head, but I can get it if you are interested) - Richie Escovedo
I hate to disillusion anyone but even those companies that don't outsource support usually insist on using primarily entry level people using maps (scripts with decision points). There is almost always SOMEONE who could actually answer your question and get something resolved IF you can get to them. I was in a car dealership that had been forced to spend a ton of money on a system they... more... - Internet Strategist

Search on logo click: "bar code". Ahh, the teaser logos... - Kevin Fox
Looks like the patent was granted on October 7th. - Kevin Fox
The barcode is in Code-128 and decodes to Googleg. - Mark Trapp
Tooltip says 'Invention of the barcode' - Glenn Slaven
Ahh. My tooltips in Firefox broke when I upgraded to Snow Leopard (no idea why). Now when I read xkcd I have to look at the image properties to get the alt text! - Kevin Fox
Just saw this on Google. It's one of their better logo's:) - Michael Fidler
Well at least bar codes are older than I am! Happy birthday Bar Codes! - Mark "DerBingle" J
57 years old today and they don't look at day older than | || || |||| || | | || - Stephen Mack
"The now inescapable bar code celebrates its 57th anniversary Wednesday - a milestone unmissed by Google, which replaced its home page logo with a bar code "doodle" that translates to "Google."" - Tim Tyler
fantastic use of the alt tag - Lou Paglia

Dog pictured for scale :) - Benjamin Golub
Hah! I mean, what's the breed? It's cute. - Akiva Moskovitz
Oh, Loki is a Cairn Terrier. Lots of photos here: http://www.flickr.com/photos... - Benjamin Golub
Ah, I thought so but wasn't 100% sure. Rochelle and I are huge dog show fans and I've been trying to get better at breed identification. - Akiva Moskovitz
Oh, also, nice couch! - Akiva Moskovitz
Cesar Milan would have a field day with that picture, Benjamin... :-) - Andrew Terry
The old couch is 35 years old - Benjamin Golub

More Than Half of Employers Now Block Twitter, Facebook, MySpace - http://mashable.com/2009...
good - Allen Stern
On several levels I agree with Allen. From within the company, depending on the role, it's not always necessary, and in fact unproductive. It also depends what type of company you are. - Jesse Stay
What Jesse said - Jorge Escobar
Just don't block Wave or Friendfeed! - Raphael, Raphael
What's Wave? (kidding) - Jorge Escobar
I would require employees to provide a legitimate need for why they need to be on these networks. For those that are productive regardless I would be more likely to make exceptions. If you can remain productive that's all I care in the end. - Jesse Stay
My job blocks all of them except friendfeed. So far. - m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
But then, if it's a matter of productivity (lack of), one can always use a smartphone. Pointless. - Lech from FreshFeed
Of course, SocialToo thrives on the social networks so we would probably enable them for all employees to encourage them to get to know new ways of integration and new ways to innovate. - Jesse Stay
I don't think FaceBook and productivity should be used in the same sentence. - Mike Nencetti
I've used Facebook recently to contact the substitute librarians we use to fill holes in the schedule. They see my requests faster there. That's the only productive use I've found so far. - Alan Simpson
All the companies I've worked for since 2000 have limited Internet usage and blocked all social sites. I'm more amazed companies still allow people to use these sites. That's what phones are for ,-) - Jess
Boo! My Company encourages it :). http://eduify.com (A cool writing Website for students) - Garin Kilpatrick
Small companies can gain an advantage by training their employees on effectively using Social Networking. I know one business that has several employees using it and that usage is increasing their leads and sales. "Employers" is often defined as Fortune 100/500/1000 Corporations. - Internet Strategist
