This is my first (Anti) Social List since March. I stopped doing them when my dental problems started and between that and Spring Break this is the first opportunity I’ve had to do one.
It’s hard to believe that it’s already May!
This week I have Facebook, old ads, Stormtroopers, freelancing, rainbows, and more.
Enjoy!
- How To Take Advantage Of Facebook’s New Page Tabs – Using Facebook’s new iframe tabs.
- Graphic: The Cities and States Doing the Best for Bike Commuters – While I don’t ride my bike that much, I think cycling is really important as an alternative method of transportation.
- Food Inflation Kept Hidden in Tinier Bags – Have you noticed this? The prices may be the same but the packages are smaller or there are less items per package.
- Old Ads That Could not Be Published Today – I think those toothache drops could have really helped me out a month ago ;-)
- What Stormtroopers Do on Their Day Off – In case you were wondering, now you know.
- Use Two-Stage Reveal Pages for More Than Just Offering Incentives to Get Facebook Likes – Using the reveal tab to welcome people to your community and asking them to participate.
- How to Take a Vacation Without the Internet
-
Royal wedding’s ‘Frowning Flower Girl’ rules Internet – I think this little girl will be known as the frowning flower girl for the rest of her life. -
Rainbow after big storms in Philly

A royal wedding that I might have watched ;-)
I’m getting a wisdom tooth out on Monday, and all last week was not looking forward to it. Yesterday it hurt all day, now I can;t get there soon enough. :P
And yes, I *did* notice food packets getting smaller. :-/
Hi Andrea – Good luck! I dread going to the dentist but last month I was in so much pain I couldn’t wait to go. I knew that whatever needed to be done would help me fell better. It was an infection on an old root canal so after a couple of days with penicillin I felt a lot better.
The packages getting smaller annoys me – I would rather have the prices raised than be treated like a moron who might not notice the difference.
My mother has definitely noticed the smaller bag situation. lol
Does she mention it every time she goes to the store? I know I do.
Yep.
Great links Kim! Hope your tooth is better now… no worse pain than toothache.
Hi Angela – Yes, I feel much better. It was a rough week. And I agree – toothache pain is the worse.
Hi Kim! I hope every things okay with you now. My daughter noticed that her favorite snacks packages are getting smaller and the contents are also getting fewer but the prices are still the same. I hope that they will just increase the price and let our daughters enjoy their favorite snacks without depriving them of real content. Have a nice day, Kim.
Hi Anne – I’m feeling much better – thanks! I think they should be more honest about the actual prices rather than trying to “trick” us.
Hi Kim,
Lovely to read your (Anti) Social List again.
Yes, the packages are smaller or there are less items per package, but the worst is that the holes in the toothpaste tube, ketchup bottle etc. has become bigger – greater hole, so we consume them faster and have to buy new quicker.
Hi Marbella – Thanks! I hope you are feeling better.
