listening to David Bowie and reflecting on stuff.

A) Is Facebook on it's last legs as technology threatens to leave it behind? These days I mostly use it as a kinda online address book, and most of my friends who were always on Facebook tend to use other mobile devices to keep in touch. Ok, Facebook is still used as the main link between other devices, but I think we are seeing the beginning of the end.

The BBC makes me laugh with the way they change their morning schedules by half an hour to mark a Bank Holiday. What is the point of that?

C) Twitter seems to be mostly crammed with either Bots or Justin Bieber fanatics. What happened to the real people?

D) I wonder what was running through Vladimir Putin's mind as he was walking that long distance from the car to the state room in the Grand Kremlin Palace. I wonder if the mass protests in Russia really bother him?

and .. E) What did happen to David Bowie? Has he retired?

I am not on any social network site, why would I want to contact old friends from primary school times changed I don't want to hear the same thought(s) or opinion(s) all the time ?

David Bowie has retired due to ill health and also he much later stuff is dire can no longer hold a note sings way of key his later live albums are much worse so not much loss for me. Hunky Dory is my favorite album of his.

yes, but this fantastic (from 2002):


Hunky Dory was the first Bowie album I bought ... 40 years (!) ago.
