Time Magazine claims it’s the 30th Anniversary of Punk. I’m not sure that’s true at all, but the photos used are worth checking out for Ramones and Sex Pistols fans.
Monthly Archives: August 2007
Tower Bloxx
Tower Bloxx is a fun stacking game. Quite addicting.
Deviant-TV
Deviant-TV posts double feature movie trailers. Any site that takes the time to track down “Flesh Gordon” is ok with me.
Wikirage
wikirage tracks Wikipedia pages with the most edits per unique editor. It’s always interesting to see what people are into.
ZetaFlow
ZetaFlow‘s a space shooter with lots of loud noises.
Google Cheat Sheet
Update your Google Cheat Sheet. Man alive, they just keep growing.
The Interestingness
The Interestingness Pool on Flickr has some great pictures. This picture of an odd gravestone pointed me there.
WishbookWeb.com
WishbookWeb.com has old Christmas catalogs scanned in to browse. Mostly from Sears, the earliest is from 1944 and the latest from 1985.
Kristen Ferrell
It’s been a while since I linked to an artist. Kristen Ferrell‘s work is definitely odd enough to warrant a look. Good stuff.
Amnesias FlightSimX Paperplane Game
How far can you throw the paperplane? My best is 55.441m.
Modern Life – News & Views of the Modern Internet
Modern Life has some interesting bits to look at if you’re into web design. Their retro Mac OS WordPress theme is neat, although I don’t think I’d want to run it here.
Jelly Battle
I don’t care that Jelly Battle is a plug for Logitech, this game is excellent.
Deadprogrammer’s Cafe
Deadprogrammer’s Cafe shows how the “Starbucks Siren Became Less Naughty”.
Joel on Software
Joel on Software has a bit of trouble with the latest Microsoft Office packaging.
The Paradox Trials 2
Quiz yourself and prepare to beat your head against a wall: The Paradox Trials 2.
Skull-A-Day
I’m way late to the Skull-A-Day party (they’re at 74 as of this typing). A skull creation a day? Sold!
Bacon Salt
Bacon Salt, because you know you want everything to taste like bacon.
The Jena Six
I’ve seen more and more newspapers printing stories about the Jena Six case, but it’s still under the radar of a lot of people. Read up if you haven’t, it’s one ridiculous case. Unfortunately, the Rev. Al Sharpton has appeared on the scene. I hope this doesn’t turn people off, these teenagers could use as much support as possible if they really are as screwed as it seems.
Jeffrey Dahmer and Adam Walsh
ABC News has an interesting article for true crime readers: “Could Jeffrey Dahmer Be to Blame for Adam Walsh’s Murder?”. An interesting theory, probably never to be proven.
Where Is The Nirvana Baby Now?
Mtv talks to some former album cover babies, including “Nevermind”, “A Boy Named Goo” and the first Violent Femmes record. Where Is The Nirvana Baby Now? needs more photos but is otherwise an ok read.
