Social Blend 127 sees us joined by the wonderful Kat136, as we dissect, debate, crucify, and tear apart the new DIGG (v 4) and how it is absolute and utter fail of a kind you have never seen before. Trust us, it sucks… totally. HOWEVER, we kick off the show taking a look at the oddity that is Mark Zuckerberg and how you cannot block him on Facebook. Following this, we take a glance at the unusual story of an Australian teacher setting an assignment for her students to plan a devastating terrorist attack – wait… WTF?
We also look at the impending solar storms due to affect Earth in a few years, which leads us to the most logical conclusion possible: OMG THE WORLD WILL END IN 2012. Actually, no, but we do debate the issue of prophecy and apocalypse as it relates to the myths surrounding 2012. Also, we discuss Cee Lo Green’s amazing song, "FUCK YOU", and how it took the web by storm.
Also, did you know Digg doesn’t have a video section anymore? I mean, WTF is up with that, right? And what’s this about Hitler being descended from Jews? We discuss that as well!
All this and more on this week’s edition of Social Blend!
Presented by Greg Davies (cGt2099 from cGt2099.com) and Jay Fowler (SilentJay74 from JuicySnake.com) the Social Blend is a fun, and hard-hitting, podcast, with no respect for rules.
