Who Do You Think You Are?


This is probably the cockiest pose I've ever seen a Robot make in real life.

50 things that are being Killed by the Internet

Found this link on This Isn't Happiness. Here were a couple I could relate to:

1) The art of polite disagreement - While the inane spats of YouTube commencers may not be representative, the internet has certainly sharpened the tone of debate. The most raucous sections of the blogworld seem incapable of accepting sincerely held differences of opinion; all opponents must have "agendas".

11) Music stores - In a world where people don't want to pay anything for music, charging them $16.99 for 12 songs in a flimsy plastic case is no business model.

34) Mainstream media - The Seattle Post-Intelligencer and Rocky Mountain News in the US have already folded, and the UK's Observer may follow. Free news and the migration of advertising to the web threaten the basic business models of almost all media organisations.

42) The nervous thrill of the reunion - You've spent the past five years tracking their weight-gain on Facebook, so meeting up with your first love doesn't pack the emotional punch it once did.

This Isn't Happiness

A couple months ago I heard about this awesome photo site "This Isn't Happiness" which features lots of cool retro pics interspersed with modern art and (everyone's favorite) classy pictures of naked chicks. Here is the link. Someone updates the site all day long (making it a great site to return to). Below is a sampling. Enjoy!
