Mike Schroepfer, the technology veteran from Mozilla, was recently hired by Facebook as director of engineering. The social networking giant became part of the Facebook team with the company’s executive shuffle. He will be one of the four directors at Facebook once he joins the company. Schroepfer announced on his blog that this was his first time to leave something he loved, the Mozilla family. But that the company and its team will continue to be an inspiration to him.

Aside from Schroepfer, the company is still looking for a replacement for CTO Adam D’Angelo, 23, who left the company. The new hire is the new executive to walk through the company’s “revolving door”. Mark Andreessen, who is the co-founder of Netscape, joined Facebook just this June. Google executives such as Elliot Schrage and Sheryl Sandburg have also joined the company.

But even with the many big names in the industry joining Facebook, there are also executives that leave the company as well. For example, Matt Cohler who is the head of product management plans to leave because of plants to join Benchmark Capital, a joint venture company.

A lot of stories have surfaced about the planned Google-Yahoo deal especially since Microsoft mounted a campaign to block the said deal. However, it is important to note that this campaign is not really a declaration of war; it just means that Microsoft is against the deal.

“Our position has been clear since April that any deal between these two companies will increase prices for advertisers and start to consolidate more than 90 percent of the search advertising market in Google’s hands”, according to Microsoft spokesperson Jack Evans. This basically means that the market will be less competitive.

Meanwhile, Google said that the deal will actually “preserve” competition because it offers “industry-wide technology” to the Yahoo system. As a result, the whole system can become more efficient and everyone will benefit. Google stated that the deal was good for users, publishers, and advertisers. But so far, no regulatory agencies have yet taken up either of the two positions.

Both Yahoo and Google stated that they do not need to get regulatory permission to go ahead with the deal. However, they need to wait around three and a half month before federal regulators “understand” their deal. Only time will tell whether Microsoft’s prediction or Google’s claim is the right one though.

Facebook is one of those websites where it is a good idea to use a proxy when accessing. There are many reasons as to why a user should use a proxy when using Facebook but this article will mention the most important reasons.

The main reason as to why you should use a proxy on Facebook is to prevent people from knowing your Facebook activities (such as parents, teachers, et cetera). Unless you want these people exploring your every move on the Facebook network, it is ideal to use a proxy to deny these looking eyes access to your sacred account. You would be surprised as to how many parents discover their children’s activities on Facebook due to the fact that these people did not use a proxy to protect their tracks.

Another reason as to why you should use a proxy on Facebook is to prevent the company from tracing you to your actual location. While normally Facebook would not worry with your location of residence, they may report this information to law enforcement agencies in some occasions (for example, if you are suspected of breaking a law and Facebook could assist in the situation). Facebook works with these agencies with no hesitation so it is important for you to protect yourself. If you use a proxy, they will have a hard time pinpointing your exact location.
