Asking Better Questions Best Practices & General IT

Over the years of reading questions on SpiceWorks, I’ve come to the conclusion that there are a few simple ways that nearly all of us could get better answers, better advice, more information by changing how we ask questions.

I think video’s on Facebook load from…

^(..)?fbcdn.(com|net)$
^(fbcdn|fbexternal)..akamaihd.net$

and YouTube probably, so you might also block…

^(..)?googlevideo.com$
^(..)?youtube.com$
^(..)?youtube-nocookie.com$
^(..)?ytimg.com$

Could really use more detail, like what systems/technologies are available to you to accomplish this blocking?
