My friend Megan (Yale ‘06) asks me, “Hey, is there any way to tell who’s been looking at your Facebook or Myspace?” To which I reply, “Yes.”

Okay, sort of.

To begin, this is easier to do on Myspace than on Facebook because Myspace allows you to put in all this HTML code to create your very own eyesore. But, with the right coding, your profile could be eyecandy, I don’t know.

But, anyway. To track your profile views on Myspace, you’re going to have to use another service. There are so many of these. Some work. Some don’t. Some are just scams. And some even charge you money! The audacity!

Now. I, personally, don’t have a Myspace profile (anymore), so I couldn’t check any of these out, but I will give my recommendations, anyway. Take them as you may:

Trakzor has a sleek interface:

All you have to do is place an image on your MySpace profile, accompanied by a link or two, and you’re good to go. You’ll be able to see when someone visits your profile, where they are from, and if that person has already registered at Trakzor, you’ll be able to identify that person specifically!

And then there is WhoIsStalkingYou. Read on to your heart’s content »

Yep, my roommate has an Ipod. My friend Lindsay just got one for her birthday. And now my friend Lauren asks, “How can I put my Ipod music back on my computer after you (she’s referring to me here, haha) reformatted it?”

Well, some say that Zune is the Ipod killer… But I won’t go into that right now.

So for how to send your Ipod music to your computer, WikiHow tells all:

1. Disable the “automatically update” option in Itunes. If theres nothing in itunes, you soon will have nothing on your ipod.
2. Plug your ipod into your computer
3. Go to http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?qt=ipodutil&tg=dl-20 or just http://www.Download.com and search PodUtil
4. Search for PodUtil and download.
5. Start PodUtil and transfer songs by checking them off and clicking SCAN on the bottom right side.

And be sure to re-read Step 1!! That’s so important!

So apparently, this PodUtil will work to send your own Ipod songs to your own computer, but you could also use it to rip another’s Ipod music to your computer, too. How useful!

But, if you’re not a friend of using third-party applications to do all your dirty work and would like longer instructions, you can check out MP3Buzz’s quest to own your music, too.
