I tried to link a humorous clip on social networking but the best I could do is Demitri Martins video index. (click social networking).

Until recently I was a frequent visitor of the Daily Show; Comedy central has now become my nemesis. Their unfortunate move to 'secure' the website has left me, and others no doubt, frustrated. This new security gives us the viewers paltry load times and the outright demand I use Internet Explorer for their features. Comedy Central seems convinced someone is going to pirate all 5000-low-resolution-tiny-bit-rate video clips from the site.

WTF?
In browsing the latest headline I came a great new site. They even have a (god help me), 'blog this' button to redirect the link the story from your webpage. While this sounds interesting, the majority of the people who blogged on the subject just linked the story.... no hey this is awful or wow this is great, they just linked to the linking of the original story which was a link to begin with. The efficiency of this escapes me since no one offers a bit of commentary short of xxxx has the full story....

Lets all guess how long it'll take for the press to label this some dumb pseudowitty headline like Vice-President-shot-someone-in-the-face-gate...

Hmm Febuary, my most despised month. I could refer to the roots of this holiday or just pooh pooh the whole thing. Its all the same to me, but you have been warned.
Google has been making some crazy headway with their new features. So much of that makes sense to me, I'd rather not have to download another client, the last thing I need is something else to install. The last thing the US population needs is another facet of the internet to learn. (How this can be helpful if you cant ACCESS the internet I'll never know).

Recent missives in the leak department from apple have make me rethink my needs for a ipod, especially if its a pda. Since 90% of the images of this pda-psaudopod are phtoshopped mockups, I wont indulge linking to imposters.
