Vodafone Ireland: Workaround for network issues on live.vodafone.com APN

Blog updates and more music...

So I've been trying to get my picasa albums displayed in the sidebar for a while now... as yes - i finally have it working... more later... so this week I've been a little idle but I've made up for it by spend^H^H^H^H^Hwasting my time on social networking websites.

Want to export all *your* facebook data? you now can...

1. Click on account in the bar above. 2. Click on "Account settings" (or just go to https://register.facebook.com/editaccount.php ) 3. look for the "Download your information" section. 4. click on "learn more" 5. click on "Download" 6. wait for the email from Facebook. 7. download the zip file with your data. 8. PROFIT!! Note: you can't download information by other people (including their email addresses). There are some workarounds but personally, I'm not that fussed about this limitation. Getting *my* data out of facebook is much more important. Thanks facebook! Took you a while but this makes me a little happier. :) original blog entry: http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=434691727130 boot note: I was originally going to post this as a facebook status update but the length was too long (720 characters vs the 420 character limit). so now it's on my blog which will propagate to facebook... =)
