Tidbits

  • HappyNews.com -- now why didn't I think of this? Here's a site that's all about reporting, or putting a positive spin, on the news. It's all real, and just like other online news service, provides a pretty easy-to-navigate site to get to all the happy news you can stomach.
  • PEZ MP3 -- how's this for a great idea?! Cross a pez dispenser with an mp3! Hmm ... okay, I don't get it, but maybe you will.
  • Photobooth.net -- this blog aims to be "the most comprehensive photobooth resource on the internet." I can't figure out why.
  • redit: what's new online -- this is a neat site. It's "a source for what's new and popular online" -- learning your likes and dislikes, and allowing you to vote on links or submit your own. One can actually get lost at this site.
  • Fallen Fruit -- this site advocates city planners and dwellers to plan/demand that fruit trees be planted instead of shrubs or other trees in cities. It's not an insane idea when you think about it. Millions, if not billions, is spent annually to plant and maintain trees in cities. So why not fruit trees?
  • Goobuntu -- is Google really working on a Linux distro? Are they really going to take on Microsoft's core business? Probably not, but stranger things have happened.
  • Toogle -- "the most comprehensive image buggery on the web." It's true.

Civil disobedience is called for

Image
In an act of desperation, Tim DeCristopher chose civil disobedience to disrupt the bidding process that saw 149,000 acres of public land leased off to oil companies in Utah. The lease of the land to oil companies, to allow drilling, has been contested by many who wish to preserve the pristine land, located near Arches National Park, the White River, the greater Desolation Canyon region, Labyrinth Canyon, the benches east of Canyonlands National Park, Nine Mile Canyon, the Book Cliffs and the Deep Creek Mountains. It is one of the final sell-off by the dying Bush administration. DeCristopher showed at the auction, registered as a bidder, and started bidding -- and winning -- with no intention of purchasing or paying for the auctions he won. Way to go dude! You're a hero!
