Well I guess the title says it all, I was just wondering who ya'll thought were the most active 'forumers' in this part of the AG forum. Opinions, that what this Forum is going to be, pure opinions, and yes you can say 'Me'.

Maybe we can emergency revive this thread if I change the topic.

So, how about that weath...er...

Uh, watch any good TV lately?

I found this show called Bar Karma, forget on which channel. Apparently, it's a show run by viewer suggestions and is about saving the lives of people at a crossroads in their life: one path leads to ruin but looks really good at the time, and the other looks like a really horrible decision and will end up being better. The three people who run the bar that helps these people have to convince their patrons to change their fate. Also, there are some random cameos from people throughout time.

Also, wanting new Mythbusters episodes. I miss watching science in action at the end of a Wednesday.

I don't karma. I can't talk about TV with you because content is delayed here and I my bandwidth doesn't allow me to exclusively watch television through the internet.

Well, the Academy Awards are live at the moment but no really cares about them I guess.

I did. To me, the ceremony gets worse over the year. Heh, Inception won more awards than The Social Netowrk.

This year the awards were more evenly split between movies. The King's Speech and Inception are tied for four. Last year the Hurt Locker got six and in '09, Slumdog Millionaire got eight.

Didn't the social network only win 1 award? But yeah, Inception was much better than the social network.

People liked it because it was a semi-true story of a site that tons of people use.

I have to say, I loved Inception. As for The Social Network, I don't really care to watch a movie about a social networking website. =/

That's a win in my book.

Social Network was amazing! The acting and writing were utterly perfect. I was surprised I enjoyed it as much as it did. People liked the Social Network because it was a slick and intelligent film with excellent writing and acting.

I would say that as far as films I saw from 2010, it went something like Social Network > True Grit = Inception > Black Swan > everything else (I never saw King's Speech).

Also, hating facebook is silly. The only reason people hate it is because it's popular - they ignore the potential usefulness of a website that provides instant communication between hundreds of millions of people for the purpose of pseudo-intellectuality.

Thisisnotanalt. This is just coming from my standpoint. I don't see much use for social networking if you're sociophobic like me.

Well, of course not. However, there are other communications possible through facebook besides idle chit-chat - I was saying that it's silly to hate it because that's ignoring ALL of the potential uses for it.

You are talking about business applications, I presume?

That, advertisements, planning/coordinating things, etc. Pretty much anything interpersonal - facebook connects everybody with a profile instantly and makes communication of all sorts much much easier.
