Fix Your Links

I just went on facebook for two seconds before seeing a link posted by a page that I am a fan of. The link was pointed to another page that the person likes. The thing about this link is that it contained two links in one. Link one is the page that the link is ment to be, link two is a photo that the user was looking at before browsing to the page that he wanted to link. To activate that link you just have to remove that last part of the link, everything after the # symbol and including the # symbol.

To fix this. before linking to anything on facebook, press Ctrl+R or the Reload button on your browser, this will get rid of what you were looking at before, now you are able to copy the URL and use it as you like.

P.S. I have to get off the computer now because a thunder storm is passing through. ;)

[Going Green] New Green Items


So many people know that I am going green. For a while now I have been very good with shutting off the lights and keeping the door closed when the A/C is on. Now I have two new green items that will help a little bit more. First is the metal water bottle, I can keep refiling this instead of buying plastic water bottles. I got it at school last year so its not that new but I am starting to use it more. The second item is the Tim Hortons Coffee Mug, I picked this up last night when I realized that I always go to Timmies after work. That’s a lot of cups that just get thrown out and Tim Hortons gives you $0.10 off whenever you use it. Odd enough not only are both items green but also the colour green. Cool! The total cost for these items is around $10, but that is a huge savings in about a month or two. Go out and get similar items and save some green in then end.
