I feel that the way that this whole debacle is kind of strange, mainly due to the fact that the woman was fired over statements that were relatively tame compared to statuses I've seen posted on other sites. I feel that instead of outright firing her, a warning or pay cut could have been made, as it really wasn't a threat of violence. While I agree that Its important to post what you want others to see on social media, I feel that one should only be fired for what they post if the content is inappropriate for their occupation or poses a threat to the safety of others.

Nokia Begins Mapping Major Cities for 3D GPS Maps.

I feel that Nokia's goal to map most of the world for GPS usage via self driving vehicles is an admirable, yet ambitious goal. I feel that in doing this, they will have made getting around unfamiliar places a lot simpler, as instead of seeing a static map on a GPS screen, the driver will now see a 3d map of the route to their destination. I assume that this technology will initially be found only in the GPS found in Delivery vehicles before it will become available for public market.
