Money Sloves everything

How do you get a teenager to volunteer to quit Facebook? Apparently, with cold, hard cash. A Boston father is paying his 14-year-old daughter $200 to quit using the social site for almost five months, according to a post on his blog. On Tuesday, Paul Baier, a research consultant from Boston, posted an image of a "Facebook Deactivation Agreement" with his daughter, Rachel. Facebook users envious of friends Facebook unveils upgraded search tool "Her idea which I support fully," he wrote. In the signed agreement, his daughter agrees to deactivate Facebook from this past Monday until June 26 (which, perhaps notably, would be well into summer break for most schools). In return, he'll give her $50 in April and the remaining $150 in June. Baier gets access to change her password and deactivate the account. Rachel's one-word response on the line asking what she'll use the money for: "Stuff." On the post, several people have praised or belittled the plan. One poster, in the shameless manner not unknown on the Web, called Baier an "idiot." "Why not try something called 'parenting'. It's more difficult than bribery but will more beneficial to your daughter in the long run," the person wrote. But Kent Wellington, who describes himself as a friend of Baier's, responded. "He's a good guy and good parent. Regardless, there's nothing wrong with a parent being proactive with their kids in the area of social media," Wellington wrote. "I'm sure the dialog that lead up to the agreement was as valuable as the contract." Rachel may be in good company. A recent report from the Pew Research Center says 61% of Facebook users have taken a break from the site for a few weeks or more

Amazon.com's homepage is back after a rare outage that left the site inaccessible for about an hour on Thursday afternoon. Around 2:30 p.m. ET, users began complaining that they weren't able to access Amazon.com's homepage. Some were able to get to other parts of Amazon's site, and the mobile app appeared to be unscathed. Amazon-owned properties like Zappos and IMDB were also unaffected. Amazon (AMZN, Fortune 500) released a short statement confirming that its "gateway page" was down for "some customers for approximately 49 minutes." According to data from Web performance monitoring firm Apica, Amazon's homepage went down at 2:32 p.m. and was back by 3:21. The outage was short, but it's extremely rare for Amazon.com to crash. Amazon depends on heavy e-commerce traffic, especially around the holidays, so it has famously massive server capacity to handle traffic spikes. Even a few minutes of downtime can cost the company millions. Its powerful "elastic" infrastructure, called EC2, is designed to minimize downtime as much as possible. Amazon also runs a sideline business, called Amazon Web Services, hosting other websites. Amazon Web Services remained unaffected by Thursday's outage, according to Amazon's status dashboard. It was a day of Internet glitches. Twitter also suffered intermittent outages for about three hours on Thursday. To top of page
