Social Networking news and information

Today's entry to the Hot on the Social Web files is from Google Video.  It originally aired on Adult Swim on Cartoon Network.  While it is a copyrighted file, clearly recorded from someone's DVR, credit is given to the owner and it's a very small clip so Cartoon Network probably appreciates the traffic to their website today.

Of course, sometimes networks get a little caught up in drama, but I think Cartoon Network, like Comedy Central, embraces the free press.



And, as a bonus I am including a Warm on the Social Web from Digg:

Impress your friends with a vanity phone number.  No...  there's no need to change your phone number, you can simply enter the phone number you currently have into PhoneSpell's little box to see what it spells.  (submitted to Digg by ThePharoah)

Warning:  Inputting your area code *could* open you up to telemarketing calls, but I am pretty sure that just being listed in the white pages does that already.  And, their privacy policy states that, "Although PhoneSpell keeps the phone numbers you request searches on, often those do not have area codes and even if they did no one but you knows if those phone numbers are yours, your sweetheart's, you mother's, or your favorite pizza joint's.  PhoneSpell has never given any of this information to any other entity or used it to contact anyone who has not sent us email." 

Digg's users had a great deal to say about privacy in the comments.
