Vulnerability of Facebook

July 27, 2008 · Filed Under Internet · 4 Comments 
Facebook, Inc.

Today (27th July, 2008) I got a call from one of my friends and he asked me “Machang Mayu, what is that HIV discussion in AIESEC office and all?”

“What? What discussion? No one told me about it”

“It seems you have created an event in Facebook for a discussion forum”

“WTF, I don’t even know about it. Hold on… I’ll check on facebook”

I checked facebook, and yes indeed there is an event created by me and people were invited. How come? I never created one. On top of all two friends have accepted the invitation, but they didn’t actually accept the invitation.

What is going on in Facebook? Anyone got same kind of experiences?

After this I changed my password and security question. Hope no one hacked into my Facebook account.

Recently I read an article in BBC about facebook. BBC guys created an application which looks like an interesting game, but in background it’ll collect sensitive information from users’ profile. It seems Facebook is no longer a safe place to play around. Watch your steps as you walk in community network sites.

Google News

Google News is a service offered by Google where you can see collected news from various portals. Recently Google has launched Google Tamil (India). For my surprise they have given a category for Sri Lanka.

Google News Tamil is my new home page in Firefox browser. As a Tamil I’m so happy and no one can defy the importance of Tamil in internet due to its potential market. Good job Google.

As you all know twitter is a nice micro blogging tool that is available for free in the market. Any one can use it for free. I used to be web based user of twitter but later I found that it was time consuming and waste of time. Slowly I gave up twitter.

One day I was telling my story to one of my friends and he recommended me to use Twitter fox.

Twitterfox is a Firefox add-on which will fetch tweets from twitter.com and also let you send tweets from your browser. You can manage multiple Twitter accounts using Twitter Fox. Read more
