Microlog: March 2009
Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows Wed 25 Mar 2009
Hosted by the National Film Board of Canada, no less. I never got around to seeing this the first time round.
Wikipedia entry on trolleybuses Wed 25 Mar 2009
I’m fascinated by trolleybuses. Probably because I’ve never been on one or even seen them in operation.
Formula 1 user interfaces Wed 25 Mar 2009
Some hot car/tech pr0n, in anticipation of the new F1 season starting this weekend [c/o Daring Fireball].
The Onion: Oh No, Performers Coming Into Audience Wed 25 Mar 2009
My greatest fear realised. And I’m going to see Cirque du Soleil next week; I swear, if they try it I’ll run screaming out of the building.
Kottke on the origins of Green Eggs and Ham Wed 25 Mar 2009
I had no idea.

Why am I not surprised?

A poor photographer blames his tools Wed 25 Mar 2009
Too right. Even the crappiest cameras can take great pictures; it’s the user’s eye that counts.
