¿puıɯ ɹnoʎ uo s’ʇɐɥʍ – ʞooqəɔɐℲ – Upside-down?

You probably already knew that Facebook is available in 43 languages, and is now in the process of being translated into another 60 languages! But did you know you can get ʞooqǝɔɐɟ in upside down English, and even English Pirate? Pretty cool huh!?

If look at the image below you’ll notice everything on my profile that isn’t user generated is upside-down and back to front, surprisingly its not that hard to use! Go to your account settings and play around, but a word of warning, don’t change your Facebook to language you can’t read, you’ll have trouble changing it back.

Gettin’ Retweets

How to get more re-tweets on Twitter

  1. Make it interesting: people don’t retweet things for the hell of it
  2. Make it short: if you expect people to add “RT @YOURUSERNAME” then make sure you have got enough room for that, and maybe a short comment like “cool! RT @Username” (so like 100 characters tops)
  3. Help me, help you: like an emotional bank account — your influence over others is driven by the support you give to others. Be nice, and people might be nice back.

And, well that’s about it.

Diet Maccas? Surely not.

McDonald’s has announced a new partnership with Weight Watchers that will promote some of the Maccas menu (including chicken nuggests!) as suitable for dieters.

The Sydney Morning Herald reported today that three meals marked with the Weight Watchers logo are now on sale in New Zealand and we are told Aussies can expect to see them here later this year. Apparently the deal enables McDonald’s to use the Weight Watchers logo on its menu next to chicken nuggets (1560 kilojoules), Fillet-O-Fish (1390kJ) and sweet chilli chicken wraps (1640kJ). The deal will also see Weight Watchers promoting McDonald’s to their dieters!

Five insights on Google Buzz

Google Buzz is not Google Wave

Google Buzz is not Google Wave, that seems to be one of Buzz’s strong points. TechCrunch describe Buzz as Google’s “boldest attempt yet to build a social network”. So for all the hype that Wave generated, yet seems to have had little real or meaningful take up, the question has to be asked, will Buzz be just the same?
