There’s something terrible happening behind Facebook right now, a blunder if not worst than that. Coming straight to the point, Facebook has blocked access to all bit.ly links spread across Facebook and telling the users that link has been reported “abusive” by other Facebook users.

If you try to update your status with a bit.ly link at this very moment, Facebook won’t let you do that. It says…

“This message contains blocked content that has previously been flagged as abusive or spammy. Let us know …

Friday conference at Apple headquarters is well over and Steve Jobs has given his final verdict on iPhone 4′s antenna fuss.

Apple has announced to give away free bumpers/cases to every iPhone 4 buyer(existing and future). Those who already purchased the bumper at their expense, will get full refund from Apple.

As speculated by us earlier, this act from Apple was much expected and honestly speaking, these rubber bumpers really saved Apple from falling into deep trap of Death grip.

However, it was odd …

The extent of media frenzy is going crazy at the moment. Since Consumer Reports voiced their opinion over the hardware flaw that iPhone 4 certainly has, Apple’s market worth has gone down by several billion dollars, every single media outlet is voicing way louder against Apple and consumers are getting furious at Apple’s stupid explanation or suggestions.

As Apple has just announced an emergency press conference regarding iPhone 4 on friday with only handful of Media journos on their Invite list, industry …

The whole past week was all about the next iPhone which was lost & found by iPhone engineer->unknown guy->Gizmodo, and as expected, Gizmodo went on to take advantage of the leaked iPhone and squeezed the yet-to-launch iPhone to its limits, even when it was dead(remotely killed by Apple).

As millions of people kept their eyes at Gizmodo’s coverage of next iPhone, the controversy took a new turn when Gray Powell, the Apple engineer who supposedly lost the next iPhone at a bear bar, came …

We, at TechPluto had not been upto the mark for quite sometime. Compared to our usual coverage standards and the frequency with which we used to write and cover tech news and startup reviews earlier, it was certainly a dip in the past couple of weeks. Reason ?

We were working on a lot of other stuff, besides TechPluto, which was also related to Tech media coverage but in a different manner. In the last couple of months, we started working on several other websites and blogs, …

I remember the launch of Google Wave, a hyper-futuristic product from Google that launched with bells and whistles, made a lot of waves all around the web, remained a trending topic on Twitter for multiple weeks and did generate a lot of arguments among the tech fraternity.

For the first time, i saw anonymous folks begging a Wave invitation(It’s an Invite-only service till date) from me, solely for satisfying their curiosity for trying out Google Wave, all because of the surplus (probably non-deserving) hype …

Now that Facebook has grown to well over 350 million users, it’s an uphill task for them to implement even a small policy change to the entire network population. You never know how users will react to the new policies. Nobody can forget the Beacon controversy and now there is another BIG Policy change rolling all across Facebook these days. And this one is tough, really tough to handle(did we hear why ?) Because, it’s about your Privacy folks.

Privacy is something that’s most critical for any …
