...all those wordy entries on your Friends Page will automatically be cut at the 140-character sweet spot.

Hmmm... 140 characters.... where have I heard that before?

Now LJ will look like Twitter, too!

Edit: The link above is dated 3/31 but I'm hoping for April Fools.

Consensus on the post is it is April Fools.

I'm such a sucker.

Can't belive I forgot April fools. Well, didn't forget it entirely, but forgot to check LJ. Yesterday, I told
Ed that when I walked in Anna's classroom to take a forgotten folder, they were watching Southpark. He believed me for a minute.

(I've been complaining lately because I've found out that Anna's class seems to watch movies - Lion King, Pochahontes, etc - a lot. Anytime the teacher thinks it's too wet or chilly for Recess and that's about every other day during the winter/spring. I asked and the other classes have 'indoor recess' and play games, not watch tv. I think Anna's teacher is an underachiever. Probably twitters all day with her boyfriend day from her phone.)

And it sounds like it's all movies the kids have memorized. She's not even trying to expand their horizons.

Definitely a joke. The policy change below that (posting anything your friends do, like removing one of their friends) as entries in your friends change is even more ludicrous.

I think they're mocking Facebook.

I think so too.

that is one of the more annoying things about facebook (posting anything friends do).

I tend not to be very skeptical about anything in the hours leading up to and on the day of April fools. ^_^

Is that too much to ask? No, I think not.

Oh, and have you seen the news about the Guardian? Twitter is everywhere!

I guess it is time to bow down to our new tweeting overlords.

It's against my religion to celebrate April Fool's Day.

Thus you replied on the third?

But I started typing on the second.

And look how long this took.

ouatic_7 April 3 2009, 10:19:25 UTC
I'm just too gullible so I celebrate against my will.
