Girl sues MySpace for £16m

This must be the joke of the year, according to Telegraph News the girl decided to take up legal action against MySpace for failing to protect so called innocent people like her from falling victim. She even claim that it was MySpace fault that she gave her trust and her 10++ magical contact number to the online friend.

A 14-year-old girl is suing an online chat site for $30 million (£16 million) for failing to protect her against an alleged sexual predator.

According to the suit filed in Texas, MySpace.com has “absolutely no meaningful protections or security measures to protect under-age users”.

The way I see it, good luck my friend and I bet MySpace is going to hire a USD400 per hour lawyer and she will have to get a USD100 per hour lawyer, after 10 years the lawyers will be laughing their way to the bank.

Microsoft Corp , the biggest bully in the world has just release their latest Instant Messenger. I have to admit that I am a MSN Messenger user and before that ICQ was my all time favorite. I guess those cute icons during my teen years are no longer attractive as age catch up. Innovative wise, messenger lack behind ICQ and Yahoo, but because it comes pre-installed in every Windows, they’re able to gran a large portion of the market from ICQ – once a leading IM during their hay days.

“The launch of windows live messenger is an important milestone for the business as we work towards realising the windows live vision. This vision is based around putting people at the centre of their digital life and creating a seamless experience across their pc, devices, applications and the web”
