Site O' The Week

I think I got a new favourite website... Why My Ex Sucks. Featuring such great quotes as:
'He would initiate sex by asking if I wanted “tube steak.”'
'He cheated on me with his cousin, who was 13 years old.'
and the short but sweet: 'She got preggo'.
Another simple but effective execution of a great idea, with a dash of PassiveAggressiveNotes and PostSecret dropped in for good measure.

David Pogue on Phones and the Internet

Dude O' The Week:

This is really quite brilliant, and ballsy. David Pogue of the New York Times talking about what Phones & The Internet are really capable of, if only all the pieces fall into place. The Apple 'Failed Masterpiece' iPhone (as he accurately describes it) has started what will be a major step forward in technology. It's nearly 30 minutes, but more informative than any 'special report' you'll see on 60 minutes.

Loving AmazingSuperPowers.com right now. This is a recent favourite.

When Harry met Chewy...

Literary Genius.

From a little known blog called 'Batteries Feel Included' comes this brilliant piece of writing on how to get a girl you like who has a boyfriend using the art of Time Travel... so to speak. I need not say more. My favourite quote:
Step Eight: When she asks you what's happened you should ignore her questions. Instead you must act confused and ask the date. If it's September 15th she will say 'September 15th' to which you must reply 'No, what year is it?
Enjoy.
