X factor.

Simon Cowel is quitting Americal Idol and is to judge the show he created Xfactor except this time it's is Xfactor in America. Just becuase xfactor is popular in the United Kingdom doesn't necesarly mean it will in the States. How will people react to a new familar show with a familar show? This won't be happening for another year though but will this be a sucess for Simon Cowel or a big mistake?

Also Cheryl Cole and Louis Walsh have been fighting for the spot to take place in the judging panel. Cheryl Cole was named the favourite because she has the "looks" and thats what most people are interested in. But now it turns out that during test screenings they did struggle with her strong Geordie accent. It is believed that because of the strong Irish/American connection, Louis’ accent does not seem such a problem.

So will it be Cheryl Cole or Louis Walsh we will see on our screens next year for the new Xfactor in America? This is down to Simon Cowel soon hopefully we will know.

Also in the United Kingdoms Xfactor seen as Danni Minouge is no longer going to be a judge on the X factor Simon might be introducing a new judge. And he already has one in mind Mel B. He has put her in mind because she is very well spoken and laid back she knows how to have a laugh and states in the last serious he got bored easily and he is certain sparks will fly when she is around. Also Kelly Rowland has been been cinsidered for the role. Only time will tell.

Chocolate making you depressed?

Yes apparantly chocolate makes you feel down! I mean what are the chances that possibly one of the best things on this planet can make you depressed? But according to experts this is the case. Research in Archives of Internal Medicine shows those who eat at least a bar every week are more glum than those who only eat chocolate now and again.

Many people believe chocolate has the power to lift a mood, and the US team say this may be true, although scientific proof for this is lacking. In the study, which included nearly 1,000 adults, the more chocolate the men and women consumed the lower their mood. This may not be the case though it might just be that people that are depressed and upset about things might just crave the chocolate as a self treatment.

I know that this won't stop me from eating chocolate, no way. If it makes me depressed it makes me depressed i enjoy the taste thats all im interesting in. I suppose breaking up with your boyfriend crying watching a sobby film and eating countless amounts of chocolate isn't the answer. Maybe it's making you even more depressed than what you already are?

Scientists are looking into this in more depth so hopefully soon we will find out for sure.

Paying for Facebook?

Will we have to start paying for Facebook? £14.99 a month is what the rumours are claiming. Because of Facebook's huge popularity, Mark Zuckerberg (founder and chief) is getting a lot of offers from people wanting to buy Facebook - people who will turn it into a paysite. There is no doubt that if Facebook users are told they have to pay to use the site there is going to be some angry people. If this was the case earlier on then people might just say well if Facebook is making us pay then we can just use Bebo but seen as Bebo is going bye bye's the only other option is sites such as myspace and Twitter which arent as nearly popular. Facebook holds over 400 million users making them pay £14.99 a month is going to reduce that extremely. Facebook which end up the same as Bebo. Closing down. And people will not be happy with that. This is all just one rumour anyway but apparantly. A spokesman from Facebook said " We have no plans to make users pay for the use of Facebook. Facebook is a free social networking site". We can't exactly call this go by this untill we know the truth. Becuase similar groups dedicated to spreading the message that Facebook is charging soon has also sprung up. Why can't Facebook users just get a straight answer so they know where they stand?

I recently just joined Facebook due to Bebo closing down, and it is far the best social networking site around. Making me pay for it will no make me a happy chappy. I don't know what i'd do probably stick to msn. I have no interest in Twitter and Myspace been there done that and didn't like it. Hopefully Facebook don't charge then we shall all be happy and Facebook will carry on being the lead social networking site.

Bebo closing down? move on to Facebook...

Bebo provides an open, engaging, and fun environment that empowers a new generation to discover, connect with family and friends and express themselves. But as from the end of this month sadly Bebo is closing down. There is to much heavy competetion, where skill defines success. Bebo unfortunatly has been declining recently and in result would require a great investment to beat the socail networking competition. Aol the current owners of Bebo are in so financial position to do this so and instead of selling Bebo on it is getting abandoned. A source close to Bebo said that bebo used to have around 40 million users a month and it recently fell down to 12 million and this is when they noticed Bebo was not as popular as early times. Not only has bebo been beat in the socail networking competition but Myspace is also falling down due to the leading social netoworking site which is Facebook. Facebook hold over 400 million users worldwide. Which tops any other social networking site. Unfortunatly no one looks to be buying Bebo so people will just have to switch over to facebook or other social networking sites.

I used to use bebo 24/7 there wasn't a day that went by that i wouldn't be on the site. It was a way to find out what people were up to and get intouch with family and friends. When i found out Bebo was closing down i was devestated. Sad i know. But when your used to something everday and that goes you will obviously miss it. So the first thing i did was take my pictures from it and stuff i needed. The only thing thats bugging me as on the Bebo there has been no warning that Bebo is closing down. Maybe when it comes nearer to the time they will let Bebo users know. So with Bebo going out the window i tried to start with facebook. I recently made one but gave up on it, it looked so confusing i didn't understand it at all. Unlike Bebo for me Facebook was harder to use. I soon got used to and now i'm never off the bloody site. I now have no time for Bebo. If my friends actually used Bebo then i might have some time for it, but all my friends have moved over to facebook and i dont blame them it is far better. Maybe Bebo should have took some ideas from Facebook and they wouldnt be in this situation. Bebo just took it to far adding loads of application and stupid games i think they were starting to get pretty desperate. Alot of people will be angry with the thought of Bebo being closed down but hey Facebooks there...
