Burbles: Fredericton spring, Facebook changes

Will spring ever arrive? And when it does, what will it bring? Given that the drains on my street are somewhere under about four feet of snow and unfindable, I expect a big, watery mess. I fear Fredericton, and much of New Brunswick, will not only have flooding again, but flooding that makes last year’s flood look like a minor incident due to a leaky wading pool.

Facebook is talking about another homepage change. I wonder if this one will be greeted as enthusiastically as the last one? People don’t like change and a certain hostility towards Facebook has grown recently (can you say terms and conditions?), so I wonder how well this will play.

Since the initial implementation of Fredericton’s Fred-eZone wireless network years ago, has that network ever been upgraded? Made more robust? It seems spotty at best and a frustrating crapshoot whenever I need to work from a remote location. Was this another case of put something in place then forget about it?

My movie blog, Piddleville, seems to be getting a lot of traffic these days via Google images search. I’ve no idea why.
