How many times have we as human being openly acknowledged a truly bad break up via facebook or a terrible argument with your lover?  People only scratch the surface with these sites and talk about the mundane experiences of life but all of the passion and truth of what being alive is lost.  although i do face book it always makes me slightly sad because i never really believe what i read.  Although i have to admit I did meet my husband of nearly 4 years via &lt;a href="http://www.lovestruck.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.lovestruck.com/"&gt;http://www.lovestruck.com/&lt;/a&gt; and we're happily married with two beautiful kids these are the real relationships I have.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">lovestrucksusan</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 24 Aug 2009 11:22:35 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog comments are dead: discuss</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2008/06/30/blog-comments-are-dead-discuss/#comment-15277109</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Great post.. this is really a great information..This will be useful post..

I always keep a html version of my 1Password database in my dropbox so I can use a browser to see my passwords. Now I am using KeePass on my windows XP machine and store my *kdb file in my dropbox. I use KeePassX on my Mac now and it opens the same kdb file so now my passwords are in sync! KeePassX doesn't have the &lt;a href="http://www.chasereviews.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.chasereviews.com"&gt;www.chase.com&lt;/a&gt; functionality of 1Password, but it's free and I'm keeping all my passwords in one secure database. Since most of my passwords are windows-based apps - I think I'll drop the 1Password and use this method you describe here. Hopefully one day KeePassX will do auto-fill of usernames and passwords.&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">johnrhawkins1971</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 19 Jun 2009 20:02:04 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog comments are dead: discuss</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2008/06/30/blog-comments-are-dead-discuss/#comment-9707021</link><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.futuretwits.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.futuretwits.blogspot.com/"&gt; Future twitters of the famous and infamous&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">J C</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2009 14:28:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Blog comments are dead: discuss</title><link>http://scobleizer.com/2008/06/30/blog-comments-are-dead-discuss/#comment-9707020</link><description>&lt;p&gt;It's because people want to OWN their own comments.
