  1. Number of Facebook Friends Linked To Anxiety on Number of Facebook Friends Linked To Anxiety · · Score: 1

    I have about 914 friends, and climbing on facebook, and yes it does increase your anxiety rate. The main reason I have so many is to play Mafia Wars. Many think it is a ridiculous game, but that is what draws me. It keeps changing when you least want it to. However, you also would like to get to know these friends more than just for Mafia, so sometimes you are satisfying the firend urge without having played your game, which is what you wanted to do.

  3. Keeping Win 98 on Retired Microsoft Operating Systems Still Popular · · Score: 1

    This system has been touted as being the least buggy of all of microsofts system. That in itslef, should tell you something. Also, keep in the that from XP and 2000 on up, Microsoft as well as your ISP is adding code under the guise of security to know everything you do with your computer. I have even seen my ISP's dll's loaded with a hook into software which I am building. So keep in mind that if you are concerned about your privacy, go back to Windows Me, and let your ISP know that you don't like them looking at your stuff. I had an upgrade from my latest machine from Windows Me to XP. I decided not to upgrade since many of my games, and other products would not be able to run. I believe a company should remain compatible etc...
