Thanks to websites that offer to sell (and buy) second hand, used cars many people can have places to search for and are no longer limited to the restrictions of locations.

I bought my first car (my only car for that matter) from a dealer that posted their inventory online. So, thanks to this second hand used car website, I was able to find myself and buy my very own car.

Check out this article about The Mikkey Worm – This worm is getting out of hand Twitter. Please tell me what you think about it. You can contact me anytime!

“This worm is getting out of hand Twitter” – Mikkey. There was a swarm of messages flooding the twittersphere in the past couple of days. This twitter worm apparently hasn’t been controlled yet by twitter as the flood of messages that apparently coming from Mikkey, continues.

I, myself, lucky for me haven’t been pested by this Mikkey work as it only affects those who uses the web application of twitter (apparently). I use a third party web apps for firefox (twitterfox).

Here’s another way of protecting your self from this Mikkey worm from startupmeme.com:

Other steps that you can take to ensure safety is to reset your password, disable Javascript and clear cache. You can also keep a check via Twitter Status Blog or follow @spam for further updates. This is very bad for Twitter’s reputation especially when FriendFeed is getting better by the day. I would simply hate unwanted messages in bulk bothering me or my followers.

Steps to fix it:
1. Change your hex color/reset it
2. Change your bio and change the URL
3. DONT click on any profile that is suspicious and use another twitter client like TweetDeck instead of the Twitter website
