Using a lot of brainpower and a series of cheap, low-powered, daisy-chained desktop pc’s, Google today announced Google Maps Pluto. Even though there are no streets yet on Pluto, Google confirmed that when they do add streets, these will be the names.
No one really asked them how they knew but the general public consensus was that they were probably right.
Manhattan, NY – Following his recent controversial visit to the U.S., Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has reportedly overhauled his Facebook profile. No longer just the plain white background with all his friends appearing as ?’s, Ahmadinejad’s profile now boasts 15 friends and he hopes President Bush and Condoleezza Rice will put their differences aside enough to add each other as friends.
That could just be wishful thinking. A spokesman speaking on behalf of President Bush firmly reiterated something she said earlier in the week in another interview. ‘President Bush is not accepting any new friends at this time. There is growing concern he may be spending too much time on the site.’
Ahmadinejad says he ‘gets a real kick’ out of fully animated emoticons, especially those annoying ones that frame his entire profile, hundreds of yellow balls laughing, crying and rolling around on the floor.
Asked what feature he would most like to see added to Facebook, Ahmadinejad pondered for a minute, smiled and said ’support for stored procedure calls against a multi-threaded database. This would let me leverage the power of Facebook and extend it with my own custom application. I’d like to see them integrate with a CRM tool like salesforce.com. That would be pretty slick.’
