Earlier this week, I linked out to an article about “why Web 2.0 will end your privacy” and then (via B^2) I see this one on “hot products from the future“. I immediately thought of the printed Wired‘s back-page monthly feature “FOUND ARTIFACTS FROM THE FUTURE!” that I so enjoy. Of course, the convergence point […]
The Indexed Phobia List confirms that “ambulo” and “thanato” are good roots to use in my zombie-phobia neologism. (And Dictionary.com confirms that “ambulo” is the preferred prefix in the phobia realm for “walking”.) Little piece off bit-tech.net on “Why Web 2.0 will end your privacy” (at least, your privacy as you know it … spime-watch […]
A friend 1 remarked: does anyone else find it strange (or even cares for that matter) that there is no bonafide phobia name for an irrational fear of zombies. there is one for vampires, werewolves, and i think even mummies. but no zombies?! i demand action!

(via B^2) Pixies songs “as performed […]

See also: That said, it was good to […]
Reveal – – for digital photos and EXIF data. Some portable perl (blasphemy!) in context of Pandora. Which I’ve been meaning to mention anyway. System requirements released for Civilization IV. (via Macworld) – – oh no: I told myself I wouldn’t do this again…
How NOT to Lead Geeks – – consider it a field guide for managers on what to and not to do when put in the position of managing tech Volk. David Sedaris, and the stuff we do and don’t buy ourselves – – a 43 Folders take on a D.S. piece. I can relate. “Crap I […]
Flickr goes gamma. The new interface is cool. It’ll take some getting used to (I was just starting to get used to their old pathological interface) but my initial impression has been double-plus good. Especially since they haven’t changed the overall site look-and-feel or layout (a chronic plague of site feature updates/upgrades everywhere). Best change? […]
