Generation Jones

Published by Peter under Front Page News

Wedged between the baby boomers and the gen Xers, Generation Jones has been long overlooked, but now  finally  its moment in the sun has come.

After decades as the shining cultural force, the baby boomers are fading. They’re not gone for good yet just to Hervey Bay for a seachange. They’ll still have influence, but it will be from a distance. The new star in the demographic firmament has been hard on the heels of the boomers, but it isn’t generation X  not yet. No, after decades of swallowing boomer dust, ‘generation Jones’ is finally clearing its throat.

Facebook Usernames

Published by Peter under Front Page News

Today Facebook is staging one of the biggest virtual land grabs ever – the rush to claim your own name on Facebook.com. Right now if you want to send someone to your profile, you have to figure out a URL that looks something like this:  www.facebook.com/people/Your-Name/585946540. But wouldn’t you rather own www.facebook.com/yourname?

Starting today at 2pm AEST you can claim your name as a facebook URL. Login to Facebook then go to http://www.facebook.com/username. If someone else has already has your name, get creative – add a period, or a dash, shorten it, lengthen it, or slap a number in there somewhere.

By: Jon Arnold

You may find this hard to believe, and I had a difficult time believing it when I first heard it, but I’ve found that it is true. Despite what logic may tell you, nothing inspires people nearly as much as aerobic pictures to get fit and in shape. I know exactly how skeptical people can be about motivational pictures. Who among us has not seen that picture of a mountain climber on someone’s cubicle wall with a caption of “Persistence” or “Excellence”, or the picture of the small kitten hanging on to a ledge with the cutesy caption “Hang On”.
