Re: louisgray.com: Seeing The Web's Racist Underbelly Is Saddening and Shocking

For some reason (maybe because I am Black) this is so not surprising to me, at all. I and many people like me who use live streaming sites get this treatment all the time. I was a heavy user of Justin.TV last summer and I frequented rooms by black streamers and it was standard to put a mod on racist bigot moron watch because it's so out of control. Likewise, I have (Black) friends who use XBOX live and frequently hear people denigrating african americans during game play--whether they are fuly aware of everyone's race or not. The same thing happens on YouTube...

I like the metallic silver ones. ooOOooh.

I am mostly a Nike person, and have been for years, since before high school. I don't really buy any other sneaker. Lately though, I have been thinkin about branching out.

Re: Facebook Privacy Violation: Secret Group Activity is Public!

You know, I had this same problem, over a year ago, but in my case I had posted pictures to the group and somebody not even *IN* the group or even friends of anyone tagged *in* the pictures was able to comment on the pictures. It was very random. I e-mailed facebook about the security breach and they wanted to know more info, but I didn't get back to them (I was so through by then, but why couldn't they figure it out for themselves? it's their feature?). All this to say, the private group thing is bogus, all around.
