There have been plenty of rumors swirling around every day about how Facebook's creator Mark Zuckerburg is going to start charging for their services. Heck, so many of my own friends are putting the same status about how they are going to(annoyingly in all caps). Why would they be charging if they are at an all time high? One of the great things about Facebook is that anybody can use it. But if they start charging, people will definitely think it is not worth it, with Twitter and newly added Google+ being completely free. Why pay for something you could get for free somewhere else? People will think that that money could be better used somewhere else. Ultimately, this will only hurt Facebook in my opinion if they do end up charging.

Pirated software
Today I read an article about pirated software. Apparently, 47% of the worlds pc's contain downloaded pirated software. This is really not surprising at all, because pirated software is a very convenient way to download free programs and software. Instead of having to pay $20 for something, why not just get a free download? Almost all have a risk for viruses, and most people are pretty aware of that. However, people who maybe don't have the money to purchase things have no other choice. Really, i don't have an opinion on it, because people are taking a risk that will only hurt them.
Peyton is out
Today I read a very interesting article at http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/6939814/peyton-manning-disappointed-miss-indianapolis-colts-opener
Peyton Manning has now been rule OUT for the Colts opener against the Houston Texans this Sunday. This will end one of the greatest quarterbacks of all times consecutive start streak at 227, second to only the iron man Brett Favre. Manning is the heart and soul of the Indie team, and many project the Colts as a losing team. For a team that hasn't missed the playoffs since Manning took the reigns in '99. He will be sorely missed for as long as he is out, not only by his team, but football fans in general. He has been a staple of the league since he came out of Tennessee, and his presence will be missed by everybody.
