What kind of people are atheists really?

cconrad @cconrad (30) • United States 6 Jul 09

We all know how society seems to feel about atheists--we are angry, we are sad, we are immoral, we are a danger to everyone else! What I've discovered is a bit different, though. This doesn't necessarily apply to just atheists...

cconrad I'm nowhere near a KC 'expert' and I've only heard so much of them, but I really like the lineup from Larks'... to Red, and also the one directly after that. I like Adrian Belew a lot, and I like those three albums for trying something different.

Do you support gay marriages??

jimmy87 @jimmy87 (475) • India 5 Jul 09

In a utterly conservative country like mine,it's very tough.People are not ready to come out openly to confess this kind of a thing,as there's gonna be a mass opposition and no one's gonna agree this. People are absolutely not...

cconrad Plain and simple, yes. Whether marriage is considered a religious institution or not, it does not matter. We have freedom of religion in the United States, and that means if my personal beliefs state that two people of the same gender can be married, so be...

What do you think of Black Clouds & Silver Linings?

cconrad @cconrad (30) • United States 3 Jul 09

I am by no means a DT expert, in fact I have only just started to listen to them this year. It seems like this album was hyped like crazy, and although I like it (3.5/5 from me) it seems like for others it is a love or hate album....

After waking up every morning....

crazynified @crazynified (242) • Malaysia 2 Jul 09

Just random question, what do you all immediately do after you wake up in the morning? Some people would get up fast, some others stay pondering on the bed. Maybe some would love to hit the alarm clock and get back to sleep (I...

cconrad I get out of bed, hop on the computer, check my email and facebook and all that nonsense. Sometimes I eat breakfast (I try not to do this), but then I usually always go back to bed for another 2-3 hours. It's pretty weird. My body tends to wake itself up after...

cconrad Our lives are defined by the internet and there would be widespread panic and chaos. There's really no other possibility. Of course, "the internet" is such a large mass of networks that it is really implausible for the whole thing to shut down.

Should I join Facebook?

kykidd @kykidd (6812) • United States 2 Jul 09

What does everyone think? Should I join Facebook? I have been considering it for some time. The main reason I really haven't checked it out is because I was a member of mySpace for some time and it really seemed to be very time...

cconrad Social networks exist for that purpose: social networking. As you said, people use it to share pictures, information, etc. with a large number of friends at once. Remember, this is the intended purpose, that's not to say people only use it for those...

cconrad Humans are undoubtedly social creatures, but the word 'social' can take on different meanings for different people. Everyone enjoys time to their self every once in a while, and I think everyone needs something that makes them feel 'not lonely'. You are a...

cconrad Twitter operates on different concepts than Facebook. The idea is the same, you keep updated with your friends, but in a different style. There's no information about people aside from name and location. You don't list your hobbies, interests, anything like...

cconrad You don't have to post to twitter to have a twitter account. I certainly rarely do. I have Facebook for letting people I know what I'm doing (at least, people I care to know.) I use Twitter to follow people I find interesting. It's actually a great way to...

I am still using Explorer 6 because I didn't like Explorer 7. I'm curious about Explorer 8. Are there enough improvements to make it worthwhile to download? Your feedback is very important, so please share.

Marty @marty3888 (2355) • Acme, Michigan 10 Jun 09

I'm a member, I go on it, I'm starting to learn it. But how do you reply or comment on someone's post? I see what are you doing right now and nothing else.

twitter

cconrad You don't comment on individual posts per se, you reply to twitter users by beginning your tweet with @username. So if you were reply to a post I made, where it says "What are you doing?" you would write: "@cconrad hey that's cool!" or whatever you want to...
