A random person is following me on Twitter. Should I be concerned? Confused

Do you have your Twitter set to private or public, Reep?

Also, that video you posted has me amused and yet slightly frightened.

So this is how liberty dies....with thunderous applause.

Those without swords can still die upon them

The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.

There's a privacy setting, is there? Embarassed

Indeed.

I have mine sent so that anyone you wants to follow me has to send me a request. That way I can monitor who sees my tweets. Smile

I have no privacy settings turned on. If you want to read my tweets, read them. I don't care who you are.

So, really, Obama could be reading your tweets and you would never know. Wink

Oh, I would know. I look at who is following me. If I really don't want them following, I can always block them. But that's never happened. It's easier than having to approve every follower.

I don't exactly get flooded with requests, so I like the privacy. Wink

A girl in one of my classes evidently felt I was being disrespectful to her in a dicussion forum, but the professor came to my defense.

A man knocked on my door today asking if my loft needed insulating I told him it was done last year by his company. Silly man.

Epic video dedication for Cadeus_16 or more properly, only you will understand this joke.

So I was reading an article about Amazon's new lending service and ran across this quote from a big publishing house:

Macmillan CEO John Sargent has said, “You get the book, read it, return it and get another, all without paying a thing. ‘It’s like Netflix, but you don’t pay for it. How is that a good model for us?’ ”

So how do libraries handle eBooks? Do the libraries have to buy a copy of each eBook they lend out? And if that's the case, then I fail to see why Mr. Sargent is complaining, cause it's no different than anything else. As long as there is a limiting factor, the publishing houses are in the clear.
