Narnia Rap Battle
Inevitable, I suppose. There’s now a west coast answer to the Samberg/Parnell Chronicles of Narnia rap from a couple weeks ago. Quite funny, actually.

Blogging Delivered. Just not searchable.
You may have seen the AT&T billboards claiming “blogging delivered” for AT&T (er, sorry – that’s at&t). I love that this blogger called them out, and pointed out that the word “blog” is nowhere to be found on the at&t site. One billion dollars. On marketing. Maybe the website was an extra hundred mil, and…

Today comes word that the Bush Administration wants Google to turn over: A broad range of material from its databases,…

The hilarity of spam
Early yesterday morning, I got a piece of spam. Thinking nothing of it, I deleted it. Five minutes later, I received a reply to that spam. (Who does that anymore?!) It turns out this spam was special. Rather than send an e-mail out to thousands of people, the spammer instead did something infininitely funnier (in…

FeedDemon 2.0 beta rocks
Saw Brad’s comment that he was excited about the FeedDemon 2.0 beta, so I decided to give it a try (I’ve been using the prior beta, 1.6, for several months). It is, in a word, incredible.

Boing Boing discovers the joys of “smart” elevators
Boing Boing today reports on the “smart” elevators being installed in Seattle. Yeah, that will go over well. We tried to warn you. In the future, everyone will wait longer for elevators. Brilliant.
