A few quick Facebook usernames facts
A few quick facts about Facebook’s user-names. Facebook is not giving all the user names, for some reasons. (See my earlier post here).

Google wants you to teach their translation-engine!
Google’s translation page has been my favorite after altavista and other older tools when it comes to translating pages and content.
