Dec. 5th, 2007 09:43 am1. Yet another shining example of why the DMCA sucks (ganked from
pnh over at Making Light).
2. While we're at it, how about the MPAA, who apparently have no qualms about copyright violations when it's the one committing them.
3. Considering a Kindle?
haikujaguar loves it. Charles Stross doesn't.
4. Microsoft forgot to beta test their Santa Chat app properly, and Santa promptly started talking about oral sex.
5. There's going to be a new Gnarls Barkley album next year! Yay!
6. Nick Cage wants to do a second Ghost Rider movie. And a third National Treasure film. God help us all.
7.
theferrett has some postmortem thoughts on Home on the Strange.
8. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Understanding Intelligent Design. Nothing I can say here is funnier than the title itself, which has its target audience pegged perfectly.
9. Speaking of teh stupid, The View's Sherri Shepherd (who might be one of the five dumbest people in America, in spite of her good work on 30 Rock), thinks that Jesus was so powerful, he magically went back in time so he could exist before the Greeks.
10. Finally, for those people who really like the Google Chat interface, you can now use it to chat with folks on AIM.
