The Internet Justice League

What if the Internet's Most Popular Social Sites and Apps were Super Heroes?

I recently got rid of my Android based phone, not because I am unhappy with the OS, not because I am unhappy with the service (although Virgin Mobile isn't all that great in this area but it does work in most areas around here.) It's simply because of the battery life on this thing! It's a Samsung Intercept m910, beautiful phone, lots and lots of features, except for that damn battery! I gave up with these super phones. I've had two of them and truthfully I'm sick of these devices. They are kinda' like having a little laptop in your pocket but I have found that they are not worth it.

I don't tweet and I can still do updates to my Facebook with any phone that supports email. I don't need the little apps at all, that's why I have a real computer. I use Google+ mostly now, Google+ is more than just a social site because it is tied in with all the other Google services.

In the start of the social revolution, Myspace was the "thing", and it was good until too many people took it up, at that time Facebook was a welcoming frontier, and it was good for a long while, but now? Nope, now it's just as polluted as MySpace was back in it's heyday and I'm guessing it is on it's way out. That's good news for Google+, it will certainly take the lead in the social site wars.

So what phone did I finally choose? A nice simple $25 per month Net10 (TracFone) LG900G that has awesome battery life, just enough internet features to keep me interested and awesome coverage in the PA & NJ areas that I frequent. It's time to go low-tech for me. I think we should have let our technology mature before busting out the next biggest and brightest ideas but that's just my opinion. Anyway ...

Facebook Is Badware

I think FB will soon go the way of Myspace ... only time will tell.

OpenID & Auto Logins

I've seen many a web site offer to allow me to log in using one of my other logins (usually through a social website like Facebook or Google,) however this is not something I would want to do all the time. It isn't that it's insecure, it's the fact that these Social websites often tend to fall into obscurity after awhile. I mean afterall, do you check your MySpace account anymore, or are you too busy on Facebook these days? If you have a login to a service or site like, for example, Pandora; using your Facebook login, well let's say years from now FB is no more, then what happens to that login to Pandora? Does it just go away? well, my guess is that Pandora will give you the chance to keep your account by asking you to create a username and password. But, why not get into that practice right now? I like the idea of the OpenID system but I think I am more than capable of managing my own login credentials. What do you think?
