Forget the Facebook Dislike button. Here is the Meh button

Not long after Facebook introduced the Like button, one developer created the Dislike button for Facebook in the form of a Firefox addon. This became very popular, if we were to judge by numbers. More than 3 million Facebook users are rooting for the Dislike button at the time of this writing. But what if you neither like nor dislike something? There should be a third button, one that expresses your apathy.

A reader of a fairly well known pop culture blog BoingBoing has proposed the Meh button.

Inspired by the BoingBoing article, PubNub promptly created a Meh button - ready to install in your websites. The Facebook "Meh" Button is open source, built using PubNub, a JavaScript API, and hosted on Google Apps Engine.

But will you care enough to click the Meh button?

    It's your fault for being too logical and intelligent.
    You didn't know?
    Don't you know what comments forms are for?
    People wasting their lives on useless debates and arguments.
    Why use a Meh button?
    Well people are wasting their lives, why should I waste mine on a Meh button?

    Letting someone know that his/her mediocre postings have about as much weight as a fart in windstorm is what this country needs. Otherwise I might as well be a stuck in this slice of cultural void where the deepest thoughts around are found on the back of a car's rear bumper forever.

How to Record CPU and Memory Usage Over Time in Windows?

Whenever the computer is lagging or some application is taking too long to respond, we usually fire up task manager and look under the Performance tab or under Processes to check on processor utilization or the amount of free memory available. The task manager is ideal for real-time analysis of CPU and memory utilization. It even displays a short history of CPU utilization in the form of a graph. You get a small time-window, about 30 seconds or so, depending on how large the viewing area is.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website. However, there are times when you may want to change the cover photo frequently and periodically to match event dates or some special promotion that you are running or plan to run. So, here is how you can do that.
