How to make Facebook Talk Like a Pirate

In honor of the web ubiquitous holiday, Talk Like a Pirate Day, Facebook let's you select English (Pirate) in the language settings and you end up with a screen that looks like this:

How do you set Facebook to talk like a Pirate?

1. Go to Settings (top right)
   
2. Choose the Language tab
   
3. From the pull down menu choose English (Pirate)
   

You may have to go in tomorrow, or even late this afternoon, when you've finally grown weary of all this Piratish Frivolity and turn it back to whatever language you prefer. Settings will be spelled Settins.

NB: Props to TechCrunch.

Heave to and prepare to be Boarded!

Every September 19th marks another observance of International Talk Like a Pirate Day. It's just the kind of silly fun we like around here.

We'll be live at noon on Your Day today, so listen to your favorite South Carolina Public Radio station and join in on our discussion of Tech and be sure to Talk Like a Pirate! (or be forced to walk the plank.)
