User Friendly Comics
That's the name of this daily technology cartoon. The cartoonist, J. D. "Illiad" Frazer, began posting on the Internet in 1997 and has been doing so every day since. Like most cartoons, sometimes User Friendly Cartoons are right on and other times they miss the mark. Anyone in tech is sure to find a couple cartoons to their liking.
Spam & Viagra--A Truly Odd Couple
I'm talking Spam as in the meat in a can variety. At Viagra Spam Recipes you can find a multitude of recipes that let you combine these ingredients into some truly interesting meals. Viagra Spam Mousse, a Viagra-shaped and engraved Mousse. The major ingredient? Spam of course. Then there's always Viagra Spam Tempura and Viagra Spam Musubi. Well, I think you get the picture. But just in case you don't there are plenty of photos of the finished products as well as photos of the preparation. Bon apetit.When is a USB Thumb Drive Really a Thumb Drive?
When it comes in the shape of a thumb of course. Visit ComputerWorld's site for photos and descriptions of some truly unique thumb drives. There's the sushi and shrimp thumb drives for those who prefer sea food, rubber ducky thumb drive, Swiss Army Knife thumb drive or a half dozen other freaky thumb drives.Take the Superhero Test
At Blogthings: Cool Things to Put in Your Blog, you can answer a few (5) brief questions and have a determination made of your superhero alter ego. This and many other fun "personality" tests are available at this site. If anyone is interested, I fit the Spiderman psyche. I guess anyone that keeps a blog like this must be as messed up as good old Spidey.
Weird Performer, Weird Song, Weird Lyrics... It Must Be...
Weird Al Yankovic. White and Nerdy is the name of one of the latest videos/songs from Weird Al Yankovic. One reviewer suggested it is the only song to contain the word JavaScript in the lyrics. It also contains the word Segway (the 2-wheeled, electric person mover). If you've never seen or heard anything by Weird Al this will be a treat. But then there's no accounting for taste. And you know it's going to be out of the ordinary when it gets posted here. Enjoy.
