  • Big Block o’ Icons… auf Deutsch!

    The list of available selections is somewhat arbitrary, but the results are still mildly amusing:

    POWERED BY PUBLICONS.DE

    Keep in mind that if you decide to make your own, you’ll be dealing with German-language instructions. Your mileage may vary.

  • Not to be mistaken for the other kind of children.

    Lil’ directed me to Literally, A Web Log which led me to This Is Broken at which I found a “caution” sign made funnier by virtue of my being a totally sick individual.

    So, remember. This is all Lil’s fault.

  • Photo Periodic Table Posters

    So. Who wants to pony up and buy a late birthday present for everyone’s favorite little grey duck?

    Okay, I kid. I’ll probably buy one myself at some point in the near future. I just wanted to get the link posted here so I won’t forget that I want one, let alone where I found them.

  • How to destroy the Earth

    If you’re anything like me, which in this case means “a geeky weirdo with a fascination not only for the physical sciences but also anything which involves what Marvin the Martian once called an Earth-shattering kaboom,” a description which probably applies any number of Mythbusters fans, you might want to read up on how to destroy the Earth.

    Here’s a sample quote to whet your appetite.

    The Earth is built to last. It is a 4,550,000,000-year-old, 5,973,600,000,000,000,000,000-tonne ball of iron. It has taken more devastating asteroid hits in its lifetime than you’ve had hot dinners, and lo, it still orbits merrily. So my first piece of advice to you, dear would-be Earth-destroyer, is: do NOT think this will be easy.

    I believe I’ve found my new favorite bedtime reading…

  • Zubbles!

    Allow me to introduce you to my new favorite use of Flash technology in a website:

    Zubbles.

    Move your mouse pointer toward the right side of the page. Then back to the left. Then put it in the middle of the bubbles animation circle. Lather, rinse, repeat.

    Too bad I can’t buy this stuff yet. I love blowing soap bubbles.

  • A Call To Brains

    I’d issue a call to arms, but I already have two of them. What I need is brains. Whyfor? Because I can’t figure out to what clever use I should put the concert ticket generator!

    So. C’mon, you big brains out there. Show us what you’re made of.
