I went all my Facecömic strips through and I noticed that I have missed SoMe numbering.
The original aim was to draw 52 Facecömic strips and stop.
Same thing happened to me when I started to play drums: the original idea was to understand how Rush songs were made and stop.
Still playing after 27 years.
I do bookkeeping for my companies, so missing numbers worries me.
You are not supposed to loose numbers in professional bookkeeping.
But it looks like I do.
I think this must be because of too much stress in my life.
Almost every thing can be fixed, except people.
So I just draw and number the ones I have missed.

Finnish television YLE TV2 arranged on the 29th of March 2011 "Netti-ilta" ("Internet Evening"). 18 people were invited.
This evening was sort of Twitter breakthrough in Finland. About 3000 Twitter messages called "tweets", which could be found in Twitter using hashtag #a2ilta , were sent from Finnish Twitter users.
The conversation was mostly about Facebook, forgetting orher Social Medias, but it was amazing how Twitter users commented the program so well, that you could turn off TV and follow the show from Twitter.
Mobile devices were banned on studio, but the evening showed the real power of Social Media.

I have SoMe friends, who publish exactly the same content to different Social Medias at the same time.
This really annoys me if I read their content using one media, I really wouldn't like to read the same content again.
And again
And again.
And again.
I publish regularly content to 3-4 Social Medias, but the content is different for each media, and the publishing time varies.
Facebook is for free-time activities.
Twitter is for collective opinions.
LinkedIn is for work life.
Myspace is for music.
Are you a Social Media spammer?
If so, please publish only one content to one Socual Media at a time, or I will...

Many things passed my mind seeing ZZ Top waiting for our band to start playing.
ZZ Top got disturbed by several people.
They went runnin' as fast as they could.
They jumped to their Rolls-Royce and drove away just when we started to play our music.
"All These Years You Have Wondered What The Hell This All Was About" Tour:
- "Hey, there's an unsigned Finnish band playing their own progressive music in Helsinki tomorrow."
- "Let's fly there to see them. I will rent a car."
- "Yeah. We can ask them if they would be interested of being out warm-up band and getting a record deal!"

This is a true story: my most confusing music experience was when me and my band were ready to perform in "Espan lava", which is the stage on Helsinki city center, "Esplanadi park".
I saw Rolls Royce stopping near stage.
"Tres Hombres" came out.
I saw ZZ Top walking beside of our stage, going to restaurant Kappeli terrace, ordering beer and waiting for our band to begin.
To be continued...

Last time Google seriously pissed me off was their "Google Street View" camera operation.
They took pictures of my house and published them to public Internet without asking my permission first.
I had to contact to Google personally and demand them to take all of my pictures away one by one. This took them almost three weeks. What a nice planning tool for burglar!
Google argued that their 360 degree camera took pictures of public places anyone can enter. Their camera is at 2,5 meters high. I don't have any friends that long, do you?
I think that if someone takes a picture of my property, he or she would have to ask my permission to publish it in public. Google didn't, and I'm afraid that other companies will follow.

Actually my childhood was quite normal: both of my parents were working, so I spent a lot of time out after school with my friends.
My mother bought me my first computer yeat 1980. It had 1424 bytes of memory and a Basic programming language. I started to learn the programming.
I made first calls using a phone and a modem year 1984 and I joined Internet 1985. Next year 1996 I started to run a Bulletin Board System (BBS) from my home with a PC and a single phone line.
I built my first Internet WWW home pages 1995.
It looks like I have been ahead all my life.
Nowadays there comes so much information, that I am getting behind.

Unthink is a new Social Media marketing itself as "Anti-Facebook".
They say that they will let the users to decide how the system should work. Users can choose which company can "sponsor" them and feed advertisement.
You can also pay USD 2 and get rid of ads.
Unthink is extremely hard to take to use. Luckily all the Privacy Settings are set to "private" by default, which is better than Facebook does.
Facebook normally sets all of your new privacy settings to "public" by default.
Unthink main window is confusing. There is "iBelieve" window with 21 different slogans on the left. There is "Lifestyle Tree" window on the right.
I have no slightest idea of what these are about.
Unthink says that it will challenge Facebook.
Better work hard, because Facebook has only 800 million users more than Unthink.

When I was born, I needed a pacifier. I got one hammered from steel. It felt cold on winters.
When I was three, I asked my father for some toys. He took me to forest, gave me a knife, showed the trees and said: "There you have toys". I did.
When I was seven, I had to ski to school all year. I hit the wolves using ski poles.
I think that life for kids today is easier than it was for us without mobile telephone, computers and Internet, but we had imagination, and still do!
