Viewing Facebook as desktop view on iPod safari

So I have FB as a dedicated app but if I'm comping I need to Open it in safari to enter the comps. At the moment it keeps opening in a simplified mode so I don't see a lot of the 'enter' tabs that are on the…

Under-£100 camera that is excellent for night shots?
Dear all, I would be grateful for your advice. I own a Nikon S570, which is fine. However, I realize that it is rather bad for night shots. For example, in a birthday party, the Night option would give us an image that is too bright. Based on your experience, is there any good camera which costs less than £100? Thank you.

There's nothing wrong with it per se, but the dictionary that the predictive text uses seems to be full of random meaningless words!

Computer switches down, but not completely off???
Does anyone know perhaps, why when I turn off my computer - shut it down rather... it does not shut down all the way? It goes to a black screen "now" that says it is now safe to turn off your computer. The thing is, I recently had to turn on my "hibernate" button - as this was not showing on the "off screen" menu. I was…
