As I was catching up on what is going on around me by reading the news headlines this morning I came across across a story that reminded me some criminals are always eager to take advantage of disaster. For those of you wanting to make a donation to the victims of the earthquake in Haiti, please read this story, FBI Warns of Bogus Haiti Online Donation Scams first, and make sure the donation you are making is actually going to those victims, and not in the pockets of some low life cyber criminal. However, Snopes has said the messages posted on Facebook that you can Make a $10 donation to the Haiti relief effort by texting the word Haiti to 90999 are true. Please do be aware the $10 donation will be charged to your cell phone bill, and NOT made by some other charitable organization or donor.
My perusal this morning of the technology news headlines this morning also made me more aware the Google Hack has raised many concerns concerning China.
And on an Oddly Enough news note, Montenegro's only hippopotamus has escaped from the mountainous Adriatic nation's zoo.
