Lazy (Easter) Monday
SO, unlike most of the civilized (read: Christian) world, I'm working on a bank holiday. And I'm feeling very lazy. So instead of some photos or a meme or something really interesting, here's a load of unrelated links to all sorts of crap that I found to be funny and/or interesting.
First up, an Easter Egg, for the weekend that was in it. Google have revealed that their search technology is entirely powered by PC's, or Pigeon Clusters, "One of the most promising projects in development involves harnessing millions of pigeons worldwide to work on complex scientific challenges", they say. I'll be very interested to see where this pigeon-based computing technology goes in the future.
For those of you who use Firefox (you do use Firefox, don't you?!?!), and haven't seen this before, try typing about:mozilla in the address bar.
Next up, it's Google in Klingon, and also l33t-speak. How fun its that? And also very geeky. Actually it's definitely more nerdy than geeky.
For those of you who think manhole covers are boring things that should only be used to cover manholes, the Japanese are out to prove you wrong. I'd hang some of those on my wall, I tells ya.
And to finish, here's Google Video's Top 100 Videos. If you can spare an hour and twenty or so, you really, really should go and watch 911 Loose Change 2nd Edition, #4 in the top 100, and possibly the best documentary you'll ever see on the internet. Or you could just watch "Webcams Girls Go Wild" (I'm looking at you, Adrian Sevitz). But whatever you do, don't watch this guy getting his hands chopped off by a helicopter.
Later dudes!
