“Significant” water on the moon

Some sites are talking about a press conference being set up on Thursday to talk about what they are calling “Evidence of Water on the Moon – Lots of It”. If you’re not a space geek, let me back up a second since NASA isn’t even on most people’s mind these days and fill youContinue reading ““Significant” water on the moon”

Nanogirls

This is just … yeah. See scientists can have fun! You know you were just thinking “I like it when the girls stop by. To my lab.” Come on, you know you were.

Do you want to date my avatar?

The Guild just gets better by the minute:

The internet is like a vagina, or maybe Joey Bishop

Apparently, it’s like a vagina, or alcohol, or a Chinese road. Yep one of those. Doc Searls has the skinny. I think the internet doesn’t really exist, but what do I know. People are wierd.

A crisis of faith?

The install was pretty simple and my first impression is that Vista seems fine, not sure what the fuss is all about. Of course,Continue reading “A crisis of faith?”

Being naked on the wrong day is awkward

One of those funny things someone created when they were probably in a boring meeting, or drunk, is Naked CSS Day. Yes, this is the day when you’re supposed to switch off your CSS on your sites and let them roam around in the buff. Alas, I have missed this day once again (it wasContinue reading “Being naked on the wrong day is awkward”
