I was a little baffled that facebook was asking me to ask it a question. Of course my first question was why it had started asking me to ask it questions. This got no response. It looked like one I would have to figure out for myself. Strictly speaking, the questions aren't to Facebook the…

So unless you've been living in a drawer, on a moon, orbiting another planet, in a far away galaxy, you'll know that Apple today launched its iPad on a thoroughly suspecting British public.
