The first time I heard of ”player hater” was about four years ago when Sean showed me the Star Wars Gangsta Rap viral video. If you somehow missed that, you need to watch it. If you’ve already seen it 100 times, one more won’t hurt. 🙂 Gizmodo reports the hate for a different sort of […]
Gizmodo had a funny article which pointed to something I had missed. That an Onion parody article on a 5-bladed Gillette in response to Schick came true late last year. [razor blade models and college stories after the jump]
Flickr a few months ago created a good idea: they inject a div into the landing page of login that allows them to send arbitrary messages to you that you can dismiss. I definitely think more websites should do that. Imagine my surprise when I found this notification today: Umm, guys according to your records […]

Here is a fun little observation that Paul alighted to: The most popular camera model used to create photos uploaded to Flickr on fd’s website is the Nikon D70.
Mark Goldstein has a nice little article on the death of the bridge camera over at PhotographyBLOG. I talked about the bridge camera in an earlier article. My main contention is that bridge is often better for more people, but they’re going to buy dSLR anyway.
