If you've always dreamt about being a porn star now's your chance....

'Watching someone who could be your nextdoor neighbour having sex is far more exciting than watching regular pornography,' says Andy Henderson, 29.

Andy's talking about an amateur porn site he's hooked on, called YouPorn. Taking a line from YouTube, the site allows people to upload their home-made sex videos as well as view other people's postings for free. But unlike on the popular file-sharing site, here, anything goes.

Think of it as a saucy step-up from Facebook where, instead of snooping on the personal lives of long-forgotten acquaintances, you might get to watch them have sex instead.

Facebook 'more popular' than porn

Facebook is attracting more web hits than porn

Social networks like Facebook and MySpace have overtaken porn as the most visited sites on the internet for young people.

According to the 172 categories tracked by Hitwise, young people between 18 to 24 visited social networks the most, followed by search engines and then web-based email – with porn straggling behind at fouth.

This is from the Metro Newspaper, we think this a great improvement as porn is bad and Facebook is good! Facebook allows you to connet with hundreds of strangers for free, they can watch your every move and know everything about you. when you post your photos they can see how you look with just one click! Genius!

Thinking about video games and their effects............

Is there a difference in behavior when violence is rewarded in a video game (e.g., by praise or through a higher score) versus when violence is punished?

New research by Iowa State University researchers Nicholas L. Carnagey and Craig A. Anderson shows that rewarded violence in video games increases hostility and aggressive thinking and behavior. Violent behavior punished in the context of a video game increases hostility to the same degree, but affects aggressive thoughts and behavior less.

Fifi and Gwinnie are a bit scared of this. We like hugs not fighting, but video games are for boys anyway.



The internet is ever resourceful!

Try this one for fun!
