So how many on here has joined Threads?

It's gained a mass following already, which was expected. It's definitely a work in progress but I think it's gonna succeed.

just letting people know, my account on facebook has been hacked. i have created a new one because facebooks account recovery is a joke. please unfriend the existing account, i do not trust the person who got hold of my account.

i have no idea how its happened but i have reset all my passwords.

I was under the impression that you can’t copyright appearance, but you can code. TikTok is a direct imitation of Instagram that incorporated new features and made itself trendy by appealing to young people. Meta’s Thread does look similar, but you can’t claim exclusive ownership of features. I think Elon Musk is just preparing for the wrong battle.

Twitter is considering legal action against Meta over its fast-growing rival app Threads.

Threads, which was launched to millions on Wednesday, is similar to Twitter and has been pitched by Meta bosses as a "friendly" alternative.

Twitter's Elon Musk said "competition is fine, cheating is not" - but Meta denied claims in a legal letter that ex-Twitter staff helped create Threads.

More than 30 million people have signed up for the new app, according to Meta.

The look and feel of Threads is similar to Twitter, BBC News technology reporter James Clayton noted. He said the news feed and the reposting were incredibly familiar.

In a move first reported by news outlet Semafor, Twitter attorney Alex Spiro sent a letter to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg on Wednesday accusing Meta of "systematic, wilful, and unlawful misappropriation of Twitter's trade secrets and other intellectual property" to create Threads.

Specifically, Mr Spiro alleged that Meta hired dozens of former Twitter employees who "had and continue to have access to Twitter's trade secrets and other highly confidential information" that ultimately helped Meta develop what he termed the "copycat" Threads app.

Morning all. How are we? What plans have you got for this weekend?

For me it’s curry night tonight, my favourite meal of the week.

Tomorrow I’ll be doing another 5k Park Run it will be my 76th Park Run I want to reach 100 so I can get a special milestone T-shirt with 100 on the back.

Matchday tomorrow I guess most of you will be there but I’m waiting for the league games to start before I attend. I’ll be keeping a keen eye on the score though.

Sunday we’ll be having a BBQ again weather permitting you’ve got to make most of the summer.

What plans have you got? Or if you’re reading this late what did you get up to?

Nice Greggs pre-match and the PA system is loud.

- Brindley got caught out a few times. Some good recoveries but Campbell got the better of him numerous times. Campbell is a Championship after all though and I'm sure we'll be in the market for a centre-back. The high line on both sides has been exploited but we needed to face a team who were going to show us our weaknesses, so we can fix them now.

- Crowley picked up space nicely and drove us forward on the counter. The more games he plays, the more he'll get used to our system and how we play. The link up play with Nemane will get there too.

- Stone is good with his one-on-one shot stopping. Makes himself big and despite a few loose passes, I'm sure he'll step in comfortably to be No.1. When you play like we do, you're always going to run the risk of playing loose passes out from the back. 

- On the ball, there might not be many better at this level than Didzy. He was making it look easy at stages and his link up play with Macca, once it gets going, is going to be excellent. He offers that quality from the leagues above that you need. 35, but plays like he's 25.

- Cisse was quick with his feet and direct when he came on. Looks promising. Mahovo struggled at first but was better in the second half. Needs a loan as he's not ready yet. 

- Randall looked alright at LWB. One of his favourite ways of playing, is to cut inside and shoot. Got back well, just need to adapt his play to run outside of his man.

Obvious we need a right sided centre-back. Jesse Debrah please. Would add a centre mid as well for competition.

Notts have smashed through the 5,000 barrier for season ticket sales with a week left at the cheaper price.

Who's ordered theirs? I have to reveal that I haven’t bought one because I like my holidays which means I miss quite a few games and  I’m not keen on night matches on cold nights so I pay on a game to game basis but being an OAP I get in cheap anyway.

Hello and welcome to our friendly community @NottsCountyKev I hope you like what you see and will become a regular poster.

Hello, @nottsfan81. Welcome to the Pride of Nottingham! Now that you’ve joined and made your first post, we’re excited to hear more of your thoughts on Notts County. Why not introduce yourself to our friendly community? You’ll receive many warm greetings.

On Saturday 9th July Notts are playing Stoke City at Meadow Lane.

Stoke have had many famous players over the years but how many players, managers or coaches can we name that have links with Notts County?
 

Heres one to start you off, Dave Kevan played for Notts 1986 to 1990 making 89 appearances and scoring 3 goals, he also spent a spell as caretaker manager 2009-2010.

How many more can we name? Over to you.

Adam Summerton gives his view of who will be promoted from league 2. 
Do you agree?

A new “twitter like” app will be launched on Thursday by Meta (the owners of Facebook), it will be linked to Instagram so will already have a huge potential following.

Cork City are set to complete the signing of Republic of Ireland U21 goalkeeper Tiernan Brooks in the coming days.

The 20-year-old shot-stopper is already familiar with Turner's Cross having made his Ireland U21 debut at the venue in the young Boys in Green's 2-1 victory over Iceland back in March.

Notts recently signed keeper Aidan Stone from Port Vale on a two-year contract to move Brooks down the pecking order behind the new comer and Sam Slocombe, who was their first choice netminder as they won promotion to League 2 last season.

I have decided to post two weekly blogs, with the content first being considered by the gaffer for the front site. Those that don’t make the cut will go here, as I plan to write a lot about the club’s history and do quirky things with ex-players who are open to discussing things.

In the meantime, would you please consider following the blog?

I think I will start drafting ideas and communicating with @Chris about this. If I can reach 10 followers, that would be superb to start with.

I find this horrible on Man Uniteds part. He has a chance of being a first team goalkeeper for a newly promoted Premier League team but instead United are keeping him at the club where he'll most likely being sat on the bench for 95% of the time. 

The De Gea situation is up in the air at the time of writing this but they're also looking at replacements for him. One of 2 things is going to happen. Either De Gea signs a new contract with lower wages to keep him there or they sign a new GK due to De Gea leaving on a free. Either way I can't see Heaton getting a sniff at proper first team football like he would at Luton. 

He'll probably get a handful of games but that's about it. 

It also shows the loopholes in the homegrown rule the Premier League have implemented. 

I'm mostly likely going to be told off for writing this, but I feel like the community needs to know just how much my dad has helped. I stepped away from the site and everything to do with it, I needed that time. When I returned, the site needed so much work, and they required a lot of work. I asked Super if he could help me to renew things, plus finding a new social media tool to use as the last one increased to $20 per month.

It just becomes out of reach, I was bouncing from options to options. I have using Facebook's way of posting to the PON page.

This belief gave me the shove I needed to get back into my 5th gear, fueled by encourage of GP (before) and knowing my dad was right behind me. I slowly got everything back to how it should be, well most. There are a few things still pending but without my dads support it would have been a lot slower. I'm also not sure, if it would've made me want to go that extra mile.

Some of the statuses via PON are hitting big numbers, 150+300. A Tony Hateley post has gone semi viral, it keeps getting 3 5o 5 comments per day. ????

Not only does @super_ram contribute to the site, but he has it's back, and he often says that people care or are interested in him. Many of the members have gotten to know Super, alongside Granny and credit is deserved to be paid forward. It's not just in regard to helping support PON's future, it's about his encouragement, love and enjoyment from being involved in his adopted club.

Thank you, dad. ❤????????

Celebrities are always in the public eye and everything they do gets captured and ate up by the media and fans. But sometimes it can be the simplest things they do, that the average person might do on a regular basis. 

The fact that they say "they're just like us". I get people being big fans but they're still humans just like the rest of us and will do human things that we all enjoy. 

I remember Tom Cruise going to a restaurant and ordering 2 curries, which doesn't seem like a big deal as some average Joe's may do that regularly, but difference is it's actually benefitted and helped a business to gain more customers. 

Is there any celebrity news stories anyone else has seen that you just thought like well what am I supposed to do with that sort of information or why is it even news worthy?
