Thanks for everyone reading my news post about Mobster social worm. It got over 1300 hits. Really appreciated.

Here is some interesting links I collected over this month.

If you like fitness and want to try to do it in army type – check out this website. They have sessions all over Dublin.

Dublin City Enterprise board opened another networking program – Creative D. Interesting, but is it really different Link! and Trading Post?

National Digital Research centre is calling for business proposals. Up to 100% funding available.

I finally signed up for eFax. It’s free fax first month and costs around 10 EUR / month later. I also checked prices for fax machines, but they cost from 70 EUR and they don’t send you e-mail copy.

Check out this really great post of how to deal with late payments from customers.

They can answer to all questions – such as how often should you be holding board meetings and what documents should be publicly accessible in your registered address.

Two days ago I received DM on twitter from one of my followers to join their Mafia family. I have seen this application over facebook and it seemed interesting. When second person DM me over twitter that I should join their “mafia family” I actually went and joined. Game itself is very lame. You click to do job, click to get respect points, but there is nothing interactive really. After 10 min playing, I returned back to work.

I was very, very surprised that I started to get DM and replies from my followers that everything I did on game was posted on my twitter feed. I was spamming all my followers with posts like :

“@gita_m has just done a job in Drug Deal in #MobsterWorld http://bit.ly/A9N4Yabout 20 hours ago from Mobster World”

And this feed was really, really long… So then I decided not to play this game any more.

Today I received DM from few people saying that this Mobster World is direct messaging all my contacts and asking them to join my Mafia family. I went into MobsterWorld again and there wasn’t anything telling me how can I stop it. Even “Contact Us” lead to the gmail e-mail that got no response.

Finally with help from my twitter fellows (special thanks to @brenstrong @antgalvin) I found that in Settings > Connections tab you can “Revoke” application access to my account. Thanks god its gone for good! Now I should do the same on facebook as I did accepted some gifts from friend of mine there and it might be spamming my friends

So the bottom line:

Please ignore all DM I sent to you and don’t play this game! You gonna loose all your followers.

If you see anyone else “playing” this game then tell them its not worth it.
