News reporters state that this is the Swing Beginner concept car.
The Swing Beginner car is certainly a very news conception and nothing of the sort has been seen before. Despite the fact that it is a car but does not completely rely on a wheel as the driver is leaning back.
In order to take any direction in this car the driver needs to lean at that certain position. Though the concept sounds very difficult for casuals use but the entire idea gets interesting when you see that the car can make some very not normal moves in certain directions.

Quit Facebook day! what about you
June 1, 2010
News world wide – quit Facebook day:
News reporters have reported from various places that many Facebook users have planned to have a quit Facebook day on Monday the 31st May 2010.
The idea of quit Facebook day was generated as a recent response towards the Facebook privacy issue where Facebook was found sharing its users personal data with some other advertising companies.
The Facebook users are using quit Facebook day when they will delete their profiles from Facebook as a protest.
At the moment it is reported that almost 26000 users have already deleted their Facebook accounts. Despite the number seems large to us but it is a very less number of people as compared to the number of users already registered on Facebook.
But one may wonder whether this day will make any difference to the PR of the social bookmarking site or not. Many say no! for facebook has more then five hundred million users.
But yet again it is not about the number or figure rather it is about making others hear your voice about something that is wrong.
So tell us where do you stand; are you deleting your facebook account or just having fun.
