Updating status update

As I mentioned the other day, I'm addicted to status updates on Facebook.

What bugs me about the feature though is the way 'is' is included in the update.

You can't see it when you update but as soon as you publish - there it is.

As such you get loads of people whose status is described as 'is was' or 'is has' etc.

Obviously I'm not the only grumpy old man who's not happy about the 'is' because Facebook have just announced that they're getting rid of it.

And I can't wait.

Sad I know.
