Don’t have the guts to compete in Ultimate Fighting? Perhaps you’ve got the skills for the Ultimate Typing Championship! The action is online and it’s asynchronous so you could enter the competition whenever you’re ready and you don’t have to go anywhere to do it, unless you make it to the finals which are in Austin, TX.

Millionaire spam mogul Dale Begg-Smith has thrice won the World Cup and was ranked #1 mogul skiier in the world. However in the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver, Canadian Alexandre Bilodeau took the podium, winning the Gold. If he doesn’t want to be in the media spotlight, more power to him. But to the journalists: just make sure to spam him with more requests for comments please. I’d really like to hear what he has to say.

I use the little green laptop on recreational travel because the wifi signal strength is much better than your average laptop and it’s been less likely to get stolen since most people look at it and think it’s a toy. Hopefully they’ll release the next version of the laptop soon so i’ll have one to play with again! So long XO.

Dear President Obama,
Congratulations President Obama! You have been in our President for one year.  What a hell of a year! For the most part you have been steadfast in trying to do what you said you would do. But it looks as if you need some pointers on Health Care Reform. I haven’t read your plan. …

The Craigavon Task Forc, established shortly after an iBurst tower was built just north of Johannesburg in Fourways Memorial Park on 12 August 2009, has battled with iBurst to get the tower relocated elsewhere due to concerns over radiation from the tower causing a long list of health problems. Little did residents know, the tower was shut off more than six weeks ago.

Just as I predicted, Sarah Palin is now a paid pundit on Fox News. Who would have thought that the woman who the Republican Party tried to pass off as a VP candidate just over a year ago is now going to make Fox News more “fair and balanced”.

It’s easy to see which side you’re on Bono-the-digital-suppressor. Why you even bothered to mention America in that statement, I have no idea. You should get together with Metallica and start a clan.

I saw this in pdf version on antitrust.slated.org, and I felt compelled to share. Microsoft sees the growing possibilities for open web standards and interoperability, but they don’t agree with the need for change. Yet they push Silverlight? None of us should ever forget: No matter what their marketing arm spins for us, their main agenda will always be sabotage.

Tools such as language, and then the written alphabet are now taken for granted, and we see no problem with relying on these tools, and being dependent on them to live. The next step in this evolution may involve encompassing everything around us into the Internet. But where’s the privacy, and why doesn’t the idea of losing all control of privacy scare the jeebies out of everyone?

The Uruguay programme has cost the state $260 (£159) per child, including internet connections, equipment repairs, maintenance costs, and training for the teachers, but the extent to which they use the laptops in the classroom is up to them.
