Worth a look for sure.

It turns out that looking at the aggregation of billions of search queries people type into Google reveals something about our curiosity, our thirst for news, and perhaps even our desires. Considering all that has occurred in 2005, we thought it would be interesting to study just a few of the significant events, and names that make this a memorable year. (We’ll leave it to the historians to determine which ones are lasting and which ephemeral.) We hope you enjoy this selective view of our collective year.

I’ve completed one myself and it was completely painless. I signed up, received a letter in the mail, waited 2 weeks, then called and cancelled. No questions asked. You do need a credit card though. Wanna help me out? I’d do it for you. Email me or click this link.

In the address bar, type the exact URL: https://http://www.anydomain.com and you will be redirected to microsoft.com. Rather interesting…..is Mozilla poking at Microsoft (perhaps for their IIS SSL implementation?)

Death by Caffeine

How much of your favorite caffeinated drink would it take to kill you? Take this quick test and find out. I’m resilient. I could drink over 1,400 cans of iced tea before I’d kick the bucket.
