Wednesday fragments

I was having a good long Wiki-wander yesterday, when I happened across one of the very first things I ever saw on the intertubes, and it’s still there. I give you the Mystical Smoking Head of Bob.
I also discovered today the rather fun Web 2.0 Stripes Generator. You might have great enjoy!
I spent a good [...]

Should any of you get onto Twitter and want to add me, feel free. My id is axemonkey and my Twitter [...]

Evan’s Spiked Tentacles of Forced Intrusion!

If you’re anything like me - and I know I am - then you love finding a new webcomic that i) makes you laugh, and ii) has a huge archive to be devoured.

T-34 (clicked on from the Wikipedia front page) links to World War II, which links to Adolf Hitler (duh), which links to Friedrich Nietzsche, which links to Sigmund Freud, which links to cocaine (he was [...]

XKCD imitates Axemonkey

I was going to post the other day about a new web habit of mine, but I couldn’t think of a good name for it, so I scrapped the post and did something else. I shall now name it “Wiki Wandering“.
Go to Wikipedia, and type in the first thing that comes to mind. If nothing [...]

Twittering

Just discovered Twitter via Adactio. Strangely fascinating, though at the moment no-one I know is on there so I’m just checking out the public stream.
If anyone reading this feels like signing up and adding me, please go ahead - my Twitter name is axemonkey.
Which was nice.
