How to break up with Facebook, Twitter and social media, for good.
While social networks evolved, ostensibly, to make keeping in touch more time-effective as well as to enable new professional connections they have clearly devolved, for many, into time-wasting, navel-gazing tools of alienation. Technology: The New Compatibility Test
Many social network users experience similar effects of overuse as substance abusers and other addicts do: compulsion to use, obsession, missing other activities to stay online, withdrawal, overdosing, negative social and personal relationship effects, you name it. Even famous celebrity oversharers Miley Cyrus and Lily Allen have called it quits.

Toxic Tila's worst moments.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that Tila Tequila is gross. But until now we haven't had the technology to quantify her grossness; sure, you can talk all you want about viral loads, lip gloss applied with a trowel, and narcissistic Twitter updates taken far beyond their logical conclusions, but today we're attempting to define just what makes Tila so unrepentantly awful. Let's take a stroll down Icky Memory Lane, yes?

The singer has created a rejection hotline to deter unsavory dates and booty calls.
Kelly Clarkson is known for a lot of things—winning the first season of American Idol; having multiple number one hits; starring in the dreadful From Justin to Kelly. However, according to her official website and Facebook page, Ms. Clarkson might become known for something else—rejection.
Miss Independent recently launched the "I Do Not Hook Up hotline"—an aptly titled phone service that not only promotes the singer's latest single but also gives us all an easy out from any uncomfortable dating situation. The number, 973-409-3267, appears as harmless enough digits and could easily be a number … Read More
With a name like that, we hope not.
A woman named Laura thinks she's come up with the next big thing: finding dates with the help of Twitter. She calls it "Twating" (a mash-up of the words Twitter and dating) and she's using her friend Katie as the initial test subject for her experiment (which, thus far, has involved giving Katie the username "datekate," logging onto Twitter as her, and then tweeting about how much she would like to be taken out on a date).
For some reason, Laura's managed to get a lot of attention from the press for this (suckers that we are, we … Read More
