Looks great, but you get what you pay for. #link
###
"Holy Mom, mother of me." Ha! #link
###
Sure, if you're lost behind the times, maybe... #link
###
I'm preparing a longer entry to mark the 60th anniversary of the bombing. In the meantime, here's something I wrote two years ago. #link
###
A fascinating look at what went on behind the scenes on the web before I first logged on; I didn't catch on to Suck until just before it closed forever. #link
###
Lots of great stuff here to fill up my iPod with. #link
###
Eno speaks the truth. One could write an entire thesis on how limits foster creativity. Not me, though; I'm busy with my own one. #link
###
Boy am I glad my thesis hasn't turned into something like this! #link
###
Handy tool for checking linkage across multiple tracking services. Could do with some better icons, though. #link
###
I like sidenotes, I do. Wish there was an easier way to implement them, though. #link
###
I'll definitely be experimenting with this. #link
###
A gadget blog with a sense of humour. Excellent! #link
###
Filing this for future reference. #link
###
###
Nice. Requires template edits to set it up, but it'll save me the trouble of hand-coding the bloody things. #link
###
Seems like these discoveries are happening all the time now. For a name, Matt Webb suggests the distinctly un-Roman-god-like 'daes'. Also: Farewell Pluto? #link
###
The proprietor also runs the interesting Adventure Lounge. Now, if only there were more hours in a day... #link
###
Yet another list, I know! As for this one: I've got a breeze-block sized paperback of Infinite Jest waiting to be delved into. #link
###
See also: Land reform or revolution?: Africans and others give their views. #link
###
I find it more than sad that HIV/Aids is only posing a threat now that it's registering as a 'national security concern'. #link
###
In all seriousness, what the fuck? #link
###
###
The rest of the piece pretty much whitewashes over the conditions that brought the Provos into being -- it almost insinuates that the oppression of Catholics in the North is a mere belief in the minds of Gerry Adams and co. -- but the point made here is spot on. #link
###
###
An old piece that's been floating around in my tabs for months, but well worth a read. Librarians and other information professionals should pay close attention. #link
###
"Did you hear that Bill Clinton hired a new intern? It turns out that his old intern had to go home and spend time with her family after her brother was killed in Iraq." #link
###
Nice one! I always liked the TV series. Now, to copy and paste... #link
###
Don't worry, the majority of these are from bands and independent labels who won't sue you indisriminately. #link
###
A short feature on John Zorn's new live venue in Manhattan. It's child-friendly too, which is a refreshing change. I'm all for educating the young folk. #link
###
An Irish music blog that -- shock horror! -- actually looks beyond the Irish music scene?! It must be some kind of trick... #link
###
Because somebody needs to keep an eye on them. I can't even touch the rag myself; their newsprint has cooties. #link
###
On Live8 and the logic of protest. #link
###
Like Leuschke says, another reason to despise Elsevier. #link
###
###
I tend to side with Pratchett on this one. Rowling misunderstands the genre, and just appropriated the imagery and iconography; Pratchett, however, is the real subverter. #link
###
I won't get around to reading this till my thesis is done. It'd be great if there was a recording, too. #link
###
I think Blogger did pretty well, actually. But they didn't adapt fast enough to deal with their popularity, and targeted the service towards novices at the expense of their older, more experienced users. #link
###
A Tokyo-based magazine about design and making things. Not bad. #link
###
Another reading list! Though most of my reading so far this summer has been research for my thesis... not that I'm complaining. #link
###
Whatever happened to the separation of church and state? #link
###
Some of these tips apply for freelance journalism, too. #link
###
Oh happy day! Merlin and Mat, I know you'll both appreciate this one. #link
###
If you like that, Part 2 is here. #link
###
A weblog tracking things that look really fancy. #link
###
Treating their readers like equal partners, eh? That's refreshing. But I have to ask, would we be seeing this today if not for the Internet? #link
###
A graphical representation of popularity of news stories via Google News. (more info here). Nicely done. #link
###
It's a bit like Schott's, but not quite. If you read it you'll see what I mean. #link
###
Long time ago in the faraway galaxy... #link
###
It's been pretty much confirmed that he didn't... but I wouldn't have put it past him. #link
