    Is it me ....

    ... or has this forum suddenly turned into a social networking site.

    dclamps member page looks like a my space profile and I have messages on my profile.

    What's next a built in IM facility?
    PHP || MySql || Apache || Get Firefox || OpenOffice.org || Click || Slap ILMV || 1337 c0d || GotoMyPc For FREE! Part 1, Part 2

    | PHP Session --> Database Handler * Custom Error Handler * Installing PHP * HTML Form Handler * PHP 5 OOP * Using XML * Ajax * Xslt | VB6 Winsock - HTTP POST / GET * Winsock - HTTP File Upload

    Latest quote: crptcblade - VB6 executables can't be decompiled, only disassembled. And the disassembled code is even less useful than I am.

    Social networking and VBF don't seem to be two things that go well together. It's not like peanut butter and chocolate. Frankly, I think a different phrase should be devised. Anti-social networking only really applies to crptcblade, and occasionally Wossy, but socially inept networking seems a bit wordy.

    let's not forget about the place you can fill in your msn handle. More to the point PMs ARE IMs, if you have the popup alerts.

    You can disable the messages though. It's in the profile settings.

    VBF is leaping onto this bandwagon shortly after the captain of the social-networking Titanic has announced "Ladies and gentlemen, we may have a minor problem..."

    I'm not at all against you. Quite the fan, really, but I see no point in gilding the lily. I would be saddened not to make your friends list, except that you are more likely to have a 'bludgeon list' than a 'friends list'.

    We'll have to get bludgeon list added to this forum. I can't really see how we can do without it.
    Make as many mistakes as you can as quickly as you can. We want to make sure that we make a great enough number of mistakes in a given amount of time so that we can be successful.

    Should be able to geotag the posts depending on your location, we could do a Google maps mashup and figure out where in the world programers are spamming CC...
