          This plugin is.. HOT or NOT ?

          hot

          This plugin must be the best spam plugin you will ever install on your adminblog, definitely HOT because it’s complete useless hehe.

          Update: I found out that it didn’t work when I had x-dashboard installed. Found a nice word-press to wordpress importer too by the way.

            Link scanner

            Linkscanner checks redirects and script activity in real-time so that you don’t have to click links to figure out if their safe. If they made a firefox add-on like that, it would be really useful. (does it already exist?)

                    Your eye – an Ethernet connection

                    eye

                    Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine estimate that the human retina can transmit visual input at about the same rate as an Ethernet connection, one of the most common local area network systems used today. They present their findings in the July issue of Current Biology. This line of scientific questioning points to ways in which neural systems compare to artificial ones, and can ultimately inform the design of artificial visual systems.

                    I still think a biological eye kicks way more ass.

                        Internet: Hopes & Hypes

                        geschiedenis

                        Past, current and future of the new media mapped. In the beginning of the nineties, the night before ‘the digitale revolution’, media were full of discussions about what the digitale epoc would bring us. More than an decade later is our society unthinkable without the internet. Are the expectations of before furfilled or are the predictions already outdated? A dive in the still young history of the new media. Geschiedenis TV-kanaal

                        Note: Most of the documentaries are full of english conversations and some are english undertitled ( e.g. Hippies from Hell) , probably use Babelfish to get translation Dutch to English of programs – (via)

                          Those Bastards!

                          bastards

                          There are plenty of parody sites online for celebrities and off course Blog celebrities are not an exception. Kept me wondering where the card rankings (eg. “Ace”, “10″, “Queen”) were with these “Bastards of the Blogs”-playing cards?
