cool galaxies in Galaxy Zoo
November 22nd, 2008From Galaxy Zoo 2. I saw this galaxy and was like, “wooooahhhhh”.
concentric rings? Wow!!
An alien spacecraft the size of a galaxy!
Sorry there’s no way yet to link the image to a page with discussion / more details.

Sweet!
That’s what friends are for

Friending has subsumed the ol’ Rolodex. Granted, it’s often convenient to have all of your contacts under one roof. But the great thing about the Rolodex was that it never talked back, it didn’t throw virtual octopi or make you take movie quizzes, and it never, ever poked you.
Excellent (and funny!) description of what’s happened to the word “friend” in the online world…

October 10th, 2008The nearly completed National Intelligence Estimate, the work of 16 intelligence agencies, says Afghanistan’s deterioration has accelerated alarmingly in past two months.

To all those people whose hearts this billboard targets: just say YES.
