remains to be seen. Facebook is where its at today because of their commitment to certian service levels. Google used to be big with a service called Orkut. That however became a nest for spammers and drove away those that got on to it.

But I'm sure Facebook too will someday go the MySpace/Orkut way. I can't fathom how FB and LinkedIn are valued so highly. I can never bring myself to invest in them.

and those with newly acquired smartphones, do not, I repeat, DO NOT go online to any news site as this is a delayed broadcast, courtesy of FOX.

I stand corrected. The race will be shown from Noon Eastern. Please check local listings to be doubly sure.

For sure less money, and better than mixing tire brands

yeah i know... but the problem is... i don't know what i'd get other than them.. i mean there are the usual suspects of Hankook, Re-11, Star Specs, Toyo (any proxes really), Kuhmo XS (altho i'd rather stay away from kuhmo after my accident in the ASX all seasons...), or stay with Nitto NT555... could switch to Nitto NT-05.

Loved reading this blog post about this Karting family

Although one or two of the comments are lame.
