Profs: Facebook, Twitter users are lazy, thick, amoral

Ha

In which case I find it entertaining that:

1) There are now very few people at my univeristy who don't use a social site of any sort

and

2) That I know several of my lecturers have accounts.

Though I will admit that Facebook is a high cause of procrastination, I also believe I would have gone insane from overwork should a suitable procrastination mean not be available.

Wi-Fi Beeb viewing may break law

Old news

I don't see what all the fuss is about. That "we'll now arrest you" loophole has always been there and hold for anyone with a portable tv (who plugs it in because the battery has died) and anyone with a laptop computer with a tv-card, for example.

It another of those dated systems/laws that somewhat needs upgrading in my opinion...

Play.com pestered to back up price claims

So?

All websites do this in one way or another, as do too many shops. I came to learn that comparing product prices to their RRP's was a pointless thing to do a long time ago...

I compare actual prices between websites, RRPs are always about double the selling prices anyway.
