Look what I found at www.boingboing.net! It's by Malloc, and it's ace!

I *heart* Cory Doctorow.

I *heart* Cory Doctorow. His article in today’s Guardian sticks the boot into recent proposals about copyright in the UK. What’s more, it does so simply, clearly, eloquently and intelligently.

Companies based on the outdated notion of inherent difficulty of copying must change or they will die. Because copying isn't hard. Copying isn't going to get harder. This moment, right now, 2009, this is as hard as copying will be for the rest of recorded history. Next year, copying will be easier. And the year after that. And the year after that.

Port chatter

Creatures that survive on methane at the bottom of the ocean; quantum superheroes who can control time, space and all matter; harnessing the chemical energy of salt in the sea: Dom, Skinner and I put the world to rights over a bottle of port. We went to bed at around four am…

I've been seeing somebody else...

...well, working on a side project, as it happens. I'm sure my army of loyal readers will both be able to forgive me for this flittiness. I'd said that I'd come up with a list of fun things to do for free for a friend who was feeling glum, but the list grew and grew and grew, and it's now taken on a life of its own.

It can be found at www.fttdff.blogspot.com

It's upside down, just like a regular blog, but the sidebar should make it pretty easy to navigate - there'll only be ten posts, if all goes to plan.

Unrecycling?

Antarctic Animals

I was directed towards an awesome slideshow of animals found in the Antarctic by the wonderful Boing Boing site. I especially like the starfish, whose crenulated edges remind me of some of the dumplings at the New Hong Kong, my favourite Friday dim sum diner.

This isn’t an April Fool’s gag either.

Garfield minus Garfield

This strip is mint. In its own words:

Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.

Quite a precise message.

The 100th post rundown.

Well, 100 posts. I said I'd never blog about blogging, but this feels like a decent landmark. I've really enjoyed keeping this sort of diary, sort of list of links. I also said I'd try to be brief, but interesting. So here are my top eleven posts.

11. Autumn photo.

10. Town Hall clock tower tour.

9. Russian Space Age Christmas Cards.

8. Crazy traffic on YouTube.

7. iPod shuffle sweepstake.

6. I like...

5. Canal walk.

4. Challenge Tennis Round 1
4. Round 2

3. Fireworks

2. £81 of T-Bone

1. Christmas Decorations.

Enjoy, and thanks to all of the sites that I found the stuff on. I've tried to cite sources where possible, hopefully I'm not infringing any copyright. Fair usage? I'll need to check with Boing Boing, I think.

Flickr user Aqui-Ali has posted a long-exposure shot of a couple having sex on a bed, a kind of erotic blur representing a great deal of energetic movement.
