Posted by John Lampard on Wednesday, 31 October, 2007 to the comment subset

Now that Cheese Station G's bitch slap pagerank updates are behind us (for the moment anyway...), there's a far more disconcerting phenomenon to, er, face up to: Facebook bitch slaps. Without rhyme, reason and with no recourse, the social networking site Facebook has taken to purging the ranks of its members, blackballing them for the most petty breaches of its terms of service. What's Facebook ... Read full entry
