THE ENDLESS RIVER OF TEARS

First off yes I have that damned album in my head right now and contemplating whether to buy a film or that damned album, with the other one being only tomorrow and I am bored senseless.

Or at least I was bored until I saw a link that I thought was a joke, lmao. I then had to think whether it was April 1st or not. One link was to Amazon and I thought there must be something to this?

I have often stated that reviewering magazines and big companies often employ ... let us just say people of questionable levels of ... wisdom. Many visitors here will know that there are very few corporations and companies I like but at the top of the list of dislikes is one name of Facebook. Now I had shown an interest in the Oculus Rift Virtual Reality and I have to admit to liking the idea but being somewhat perplexed at it being first so late in returning and secondly so long in the creating process. I mean literally because of the existence of one thing that now seems to have been around forever, smartphones and more importantly accelerometers.

Anyway I am sure others were as downbeat as I was when they read that FAcebook had bought Oculus Rift? In fact I lost count of the number of links I see within a matter of weeks of people complaining of this ... purchase.

Now for those that do not like Facebook, or Google for that, matter because they all just turn into evil beings while continuing to spout their humanity, well I have something for you. Something that I think is going to first make you suspicious, then make you giggle, then have you suspicious once again, then shocked and then rip your sides laughing?!

I will not say anymore as I would like to think that anyone finding this will go through the same emotions as I did and this will just make me laugh once again, lol as I am now doing thinking about it?!

THE KICKSTARTER KICK OFF

If this died not kick off I for one will be surprised!

Oculus, a company that was started after funds raised on Kickstarter has been sold to Facebook for eleventy billion dollars! Well I get fed up with these stupidly large numbers so 'eleventy' should be in the ballpark somewhere?! Lmao!

Now I for one would be somewhat annoyed with this had I been an investor via kickstarter! I have been following this company for the last 6 months or more and I am extremely surprised and annoyed that Facebook now own them!

Sorry Mr Zuckerberg but there is are no viable reasons I can find that you would want to buy Oculus Rift! As far as I was aware all the games on Facebook were by other companies such as Zynga and even so the only three dimensional games are isometric and not stereo scopic so I am at a loss to understand why you bought it!!

I think that Kickstarter should have a clause in their contracts that state that as members of the public donate their cash that in a given period of time the start up company cannot be sold!

I really do not like the idea that so the greedy evil companies are trying to grab everything as it appears!! It really needs to stop despite it being far too late, God knows how many companies Google have bought, oh yeah around 145 give our take at the time of typing this!!

Google had the resources to buy up 145 and counting!!

Then you have the other few companies of Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple of course! But I re day that a number of other smaller companies are getting a bit worried and maybe past that into pissed off?

After all you have the like of Linked In, Mozilla, WordPress along with a list of others struggling to complete! Maybe because they did not want to be greedy?! Lol!

I think that some of the bigger companies likely only started their frantic list of purchases because Google were doing it?! In fact it would not surprise me to find out they all started because of this?! After all what would it be like if Google ended up owning 70 percent or more of everything digital?! Sound far fetched and too big a percentage? Well you have to remember that they have bought over 140 companies and have shown no signs of showing down! Quite the opposite in fact and I date day that this had made many companies a wee bit jumpy?!

All this because someone created a blank page with a stupid childish name and charged a fortune, or conned people and companies, over advertising and likely how high they end up in one of their searches?!

Does not sound like a company that is as good and peaceful as they have promoted themselves as?!

Whenever I state things like that I really want to be wrong. Really! It would be great if people, decent and honest people really did benefit and I suppose I mean the human race and it's progression.
I just do not see it unfortunately.
