Ever wondered what it would be like to experience a day in the life of a social media dinosaur? For those that Facebook just confuses, duly bringing up feelings of being a bit prehistoric, [then this animation](http://www.4mations.tv/clip.aspx?key=C936029765F90190&ctx=medialist&type=video) over at the new internet home for animation (4mations.tv) may provide something to relate to. It is the latest Facebook gag and a bizarre parody of *The Office* meeting *Denver the Last Dinosaur* meeting Web 2.0.

David Brentosaurus does have a certain ring to it!
