PostSecret
House Calls Only
“Brooklyn Doctor Opens IM Practice: OMG! You’ve Got Cancer :(“
(wired)
This guy rocks. He’s not only one of the few innovative doctors but also a kickass photographer.
He’s available via IM and E-Mail and doesn’t have a practice or a secratary (thus keeps overhead extremely low!). He only does house calls. There is other stuff he does different […]
Facebook “Where you buy .gif images for a dollar to give to other people” valued at $15B
Holy shit!
Microsoft Inks Deal with Facebook - WSJ.com: “Microsoft Corp. agreed to invest $240 million for a minority stake in Facebook Inc. that values the social-networking site at $15 billion, beating Google Inc. in a closely watched contest.”
This is getting a little ridiculous. Let’s see if this ends like PointCast or GeoCities.
It will sure be interesting to […]
A tax on the stupid
Lottery odds are fun. Check out this cartoon.
“It is a bit like riding a roller coaster rather than buying a car: Fine if that’s your idea of fun, but not a good way to get around.”
(Douglas Arnold, director for the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications at the University of Minnesota)
metro stats
Funny thing is that I remember every single metro I’ve been on so far.
My favorites: London Underground (MIND THE GAP!!!) and the Berlin U-Bahn (very efficient, clean and on time)!
Neat idea, Alberto!
Breaking The Habit
Memories consume like opening the wounds
I’m picking me apart again
You all assume
I’m searching in my room
Unless I try to start again
I don’t want to be the one the battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize that I’m the one confusedI don’t know what’s worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream…
I don’t know why I instigate
And […]
Junk Food
One of the books I read in Sardinia was ‘Kitchen Confidential’ which is btw an awesome book. Well worth the read and certainly not your average boring book about cooking!
At the end of the book, Anythony Bourdain (author) was interviewed by some guy. Here’s his opinion on junk food:
Bourdain: “…I like junk food.”
Other guy: ”There are certain nights when you want to […]
Simpsonized
Just wasted four minutes of my life on Simpsonizeme.com
You basically just submit a closeup of your face and ze simpsonizer will simpsonize you. The result is…pretty good I’d say. Not THAT far off.
And here is the source image:
Lookin forward to get a copy of The Movie!
Classic Ze Frank - Ja lustisch
His last show will be on March 17th.
ISP speeds
As expected:
DTAG DSL 6000 (6000 up / 512 down) - That’s what I’m paying for and I’m quite happy-happy.
Can’t beat the uni networks but what fun is it when all ports are blocked / traffic is filtered?!
