A little different than how most of the "All the Single Ladies" impersonations go:
Plus, the clown mask is just creepy.

Is it just me or did IMDb redesign its pages?
So far I don't like them! The lists seem too crowded! What does everyone else think?

Surprisingly I agreed with a lot of the first 50. Usually these "how you should behave" lists make me angry but there was some good stuff in there. In particular I agreed with all the ones about not offering your own opinions. Oh, and I don't like #24.

If and when I take a child of mine off to college, I want to wear shirts like this.

If this story is true, it is pretty amazing.

Very interesting look into the history of Firefox (well, technically Mozilla):
Here are some excerpts from my diary during the first few months of the existence of Netscape Communications (All Praise the Company), back when we were still called Mosaic. Back when there were only 20 or 30 of us, instead of however-many thousands of people there are today. Back before we had any middle managers.
This is the time period that is traditionally referred to as "the good old days," but time always softens the pain and makes things look like more fun than they really were. But who said everything has to be fun? Pain builds character. (Sometimes it builds products, too.)
An exerpt:
I slept at work again last night; two and a half hours curled up in a quilt underneath my desk, from 11am to 1:30pm or so. That was when I woke up with a start, realizing that I was late for a meeting we were scheduled to have to argue about colormaps and dithering, and how we should deal with all the nefarious 8-bit color management issues. But it was no big deal, we just had the meeting later. It's hard for someone to hold it against you when you miss a meeting because you've been at work so long that you've passed out from exhaustion.

Colorado College is the 51st best college in the country according to Forbes. While I personally think that CC is even better than that, this seems to me like we're doing pretty well!
But seriously, no college that doesn't work on the block plan can be the real #1. The block plan rocked.

Sean from Boy Meets World is in this rather strange and "morbid" short film about a winning lottery ticket on Devour.
(You are subscribed to Devour, aren't you? It's awesome!)

This a pretty cool idea (one that I have even sort of tried to pitch to Cabin Boy Farluffo before): the site has a bunch of stock drawings and gives you an interface to piece them together into some sort of story.
I only wish I could figure out how to make it work!

This guy paints the people he sees on Chatroulette. Very impressive! Every time I have been on Chatroulette it has been boring. Why can't something like this happen to me!?

Holy cow, these are amazing. Tiny sculptures carved into pencils.
Seriously, amazing.

The title of this article is a bit over the top but the article is still pretty interesting. I only wish it cited its references better.
