The "Mojave Experiment" →
Microsoft is launching their “Get Vista back in the public eye” advertising campaign.  While I still preach that Vista is great and the hardware manufacturers are to blame, all these videos show is that the general public is ignorant to what they’re using as long as it works. You could’ve shown them OSX, called it the newest version of Windows that will be out in a few...

spreeder.com - online speed reading application →
Wow, this is a pretty sweet little theory-in-the-flesh.  The idea behind speedreading is training your brain not to sub-vocalise each word and keep moving.  This application will flash words at your set speed, tricking your brain into doing just that.

How High Fructose Corn Syrup Makes you Gain Weight →
My advice: Avoid fructose at breakfast.  Its probably the easiest meal of the day to avoid it, and it will improve the way your body treats food mid-day.

Colorblind Web Page Filter →
As a designer and photographer, I’ve always really wondered how someone who is colorblind would interpret the things I work on.  Something might have punch to me, but as subjective as something like color is, it could be completely different to someone else, let alone someone else whos perception of color is entirely different than mine. This web page lets you see just how different that...

The Trouble with Mirrors
alohanico: snowblind: I cut my lines on a mirror.  Better to see everything that’s there.  Scrape up every little dust speck. Waste nothing. However, practicality and resourcefulness have a downside too. You have to bend over that same mirror. Look into it.  See yourself for who you are - what you are. That’s the trouble with mirrors.

GarbageStan23: why?
Rabidplaybunny87: Well, me, david and andrew were having a bonfire in the backyard, and we were making s'mores and all... and suddenly we here sirens, and see a firetruck turn into the street in front of us.
Rabidplaybunny87: So we all went running to see what was up, and our neigbor's house was on fire!
GarbageStan23: oh shit!
Rabidplaybunny87: Yeah, and when we got there, the wife was crying into her husbands arms, and we were just kinda standing there, and then she saw us, and then like for 10 seconds, gave us the dirtiest look ever
Rabidplaybunny87: Turns out, we were still holding our sticks with marshmallows on it, watching the fire....
Rabidplaybunny87: talk about bad timing...
