Now this is why I’m a vegetarian!
This is what I’m talking about! Here’s a new PETA ad campaign for vegetarianism starring none other than Alicia Silverstone who absent mindedly must have forgotten to bring her clothes to the shoot. You know, mildly nsfw.
Is that wrong? Cause if it’s wrong I don’t want to be right… and it totally worked on me, [...]

Linux, the mobile os of the future??
I came across this piece suggesting that Linux is going to be 31% of all smart devices on the market by 2012, growing by more than 75% a year. I don’t know how they come up with these numbers, maybe their right, maybe not, but with quotes like thesee:

Breakfast Links: MMOG Problems, Robot Fight & George Lucas
You know it’s kind of funny how MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Games) are beginning to suffer problems that you’d only think happened in the real world. Most recently and most interestingly Scott sent me the 411 on how there was an infectious disease epidemic broke out on World of Warcraft! Unintended, kind of just like [...]

Death lightens up, trades scythe for rose
So there’s a small bunch of people that worship Santa Muerte, the Grim Reaper. You know the guy all skeletal, black cloak, big scythe… that guy. The Catholics don’t necessarily approve of this, but people are going to do what they’re going to do. The Brisbane Times is now reporting that ol’ Saint Death has [...]

Newspaper Catiness
So there’s been a minor furor bubbling around the idea that the nytimes.com is going to drop their Times Select program. Howard sent me this piece from the Post. Apparently they aren’t above a little catiness and nyah nyah’ing. It’s a very lopsided piece quietly told you so’ing the Gray Lady.

Tailrank gets spammed?
Tailrank’s been having some problems of late. A little bit ago TechCrunch posted on how their technology home page went blank (and nobody noticed). This, I just noticed, is still true today.

Subway map of the internet
Huh, well remember that XKCD map of online communities? Yeah, that was pretty awesome. Well now someone has built a map of the whole internet like a subway map! I don’t know if this is new or not, I vaguely remember something like this a bit ago, but it’s new to me now… so there [...]

P.S.A.
FYI, this blog is a completely non-smorking environment. Smorking is a nasty habit and we don’t tolerate it here. If you must smork, I believe that these other blogs not only tolerate smorking, but encourage it. Dirty, disgusting blogs.
And just in case you were curious, we are also 100% snork free.
UPDATE: I can’t stop saying [...]
