Live Lounge Month 2024

[Danishgirl]

And I'm back again!

[Jono]

Thank god Chopper isn't doing an only bley friday this week. I need an extra special one what with it being my birthday.

[Jono]

That candle thing happened on Hollyoaks last night on E4. 'Cos Hollyoaks is real.

Haha, I love the way the newsreader says 'backside'. You can just imagine Radio 1 saying 'arse'.

[Grace]

I didn't laugh at the first one, but this one is quite funny.

[Danishgirl]

I've already read that in our local danish newspaper - without a picture...

[Jono]

Wasn't as good as last time's Are You Sick.

I feel wrong in the head for liking this James Blunt track. It's like the Paris Hilton track this time last year.

[Danishgirl]

Haha, I know what you mean

[Jono]

What is Scott worrying about? He never bloody does anything on these things! He never touched anything on myspace, he just lurked. It's just laziness

Yeah but the BBC is crap... when I logged in the office I imagine Scott could get on as me. It's all to do with the BBC having the same IP addresses.

Haha, when Callum joined it says "Callum is now single." He hadn't actually filled it in before, but it was like er, he had a girlfriend before?!

[Monitorabbit]

I'm never going on Facebook again - too many people you don't want to talk to can find you far too easily. :shock:

[Grace]

Aren't there programs that hack myspace and other profiles by entering every word in the dictionary? So you have to put numbers and punctuation in so they can't do it.

[Jono]

I have a new game at the moment. Because if you have two friends that are friends with each other you see the comments they make on each other's walls. So I'm making my friends paranoid by commenting on their friends walls.

So it says "Jono just commented on Laura's wall... Urgh that Scott is a right slapper, did you hear what he did." And they'll be able to see it!

Hmm that's a new one on me though. Newsbeat reporting workers shouldn't use facebook, and then Scott reporting his boss is always on it!

[Jono]

I don't like the way friends can 'tag' you in photographs, and then it comes up on your photos when people look at your profile.

Now I currently have three VERY DRUNK photos of me on my photos because someone else added them.

I'll never pull on facebook now! I imagine bebo is more Scott's thing.

[popbitcher]

i just logged into myspace and had a friend request for the first tiem in ages!

[Kelly]

I've never been on Facebook, I can't understand it at all. Is it worth it?

[Jono]

I think it's too mature for you. It's not like myspace where it's so much a laugh, it's something to buys you during the office and stay in touch with old friends.

Everyone pretty much has the same profile, when I first joined it was like "where do I change it to make it pretty", but you don't. Since leaving sixth form though it's become quite fascinating.

[Kelly]

Too mature for me? I might give it a go anyway.

I'm slightly sick of this song too.

[popbitcher]

how do i get to read all your blogs

[Jono]

Too mature for me? I might give it a go anyway.

Well I'd say it's more 'real' friends than the ones you talk about from live journal

You invite people from your e-mail account, and then they have to accept you, and know you.

I have Joel and Greg James on my profile, amongst a few others, but I'm not on a limited profile with them like other listeners because of Unofficial Mills I guess.

[Jono]

how do i get to read all your blogs

Click Blogs at the top of the page under the banner. Or click the link in my signature.

Does Jo Jo sing "I'm loving myself" or "I'm rubbing myself"? She's not done much since that attempt at replying to Sean Kingston.

[Kelly]

Hey, my LJ friends are lovely! I even have three UMers on there.

I might give it a go, it sounds interesting.

To be fair, JoJo has a very good voice. Not many people my age can sing like that. I know I can't...

[Jono]

Passes the time I guess... think that's why most people joined. Then got sucked in!

Good mornin!

I'm properly fretting about college. It's a bloody scary idea that I'm going there.

[Timsk]

...when I logged in the office I imagine Scott could get on as me. It's all to do with the BBC having the same IP addresses.

That's normal for any larger organisation - the internet gateway out of the company does something called NAT (network address translation) and keeps track of what internal IP it needs to route stuff back to... So it IS all separate, but just the gateway's IP is visible to visited sites.

Aren't there programs that hack myspace and other profiles by entering every word in the dictionary? So you have to put numbers and punctuation in so they can't do it.

That's called either a 'brute force' or 'dictionary' attack... Takes a dictionary attack about a day to crack a password containing words and numbers. Passwords are best kept completely random if possible, the brute force attack (trying EVERY combination) then takes DAYS to complete and is beyond the casual hacker...

I think it's too mature for you. It's not like myspace where it's so much a laugh, it's something to buys you during the office and stay in touch with old friends.

I don't like Facebook. One of my ex's has found me on it and is now pursuing me once again - YEARS after I last managed to shake her off.

[Jono]

Haha, ten o'clock. The online department doesn't arrive until then!

KT Tunstall sounds like she'd be a laugh down the pub with her guitar... think about it... her, a few drinks, and her guitar.

[Kelly]

I loved the singing telegrams. I actually snorted into my tea at 'commitment phobia' and Scott woo-hooing.
