Attention Facebook and Twitter users:
The "news" that Mark Zuckerberg announced that Facebook will shut down on March 15 because he finds running the company "too stressful" is false.
I repeat, false.
It's a rumor based on a fictitious, satirical story published on WeeklyWorldNews.com, a tabloid-style website (formerly a weekly newspaper) best known for past scoops such as "Alien Spaceships to Attack Earth in 2011" and "Megan Fox Is a Man."
It isn't news. It barely even qualifies as a rumor.
Pass that on.
You guys might have read the newspapers claiming that Facebook is shutting down on March 15th, 2011. well, breathe a sigh of relief. it's not. it's just a fake headline.
on the other story, is our 'beloved' minister of telecommunications and information Tifatul Sembiring really going to block RIM? i don't believe so. think of the 1.1 million BIS subscribers living in this country. and think of us, students, whose homework and social life has been rescued by this phenomenon, where we became the second biggest user of twitter in the world. think of the people who doesn't need phone creds anymore, because all their friends are using blackberry. think of the browser, where the internet is always in our hands.
so is blackberry going to be blocked on the 17th? well, looks like we have to see for ourselves eh?
