Check this out! I mean… what is going on? Did UNKLE just decide to blow up a load of skaters? Is this even real, these people have balls.
On the blog front, I have removed the entirely banal ‘recent posts’ widget, which merely saved you the trouble of scrolling down the website a little bit. I’ve also added my Twitter updates widget, so if you have a quick glance you can see those juicy clips of prose I tend to make daily.
After being linked through Christopher Harrogate’s status update on Facebook, which is in it’s own way bad enough, I have discovered a website that you may know of called DailyBooth.
The concept behind DailyBooth is to take a picture (at least one, I guess) a day, at any point, using your computers webcam or whatever imaging tool you can get your grubby technophilic mits on. It’s a clever enough idea, and one that I’ve definitely seen before, in much more artistic (and touching) ways, but there is still merit in creating one for yourself and following everyone elses.
Still, as a communal event this is probably the most contrived social website I have yet encountered on the internet. That aside, I have still created a user account and taken my first step towards attaining a level of upper enlightenment through sheer amounts of morbid vanity, because my net publicity could always use a boost, right?
So, it hasn’t happened, unless we’re all in some kind of limbo environment. Ah well, I can still blog right?
Yes, over at CERN the billionth of a chance that a black hole was created has been entirely missed. I’m a little sad, really, it would have been interesting to be converted into pure energy. Ah well, it’s like my aunt says: The whole throw up could just be a publicity stunt to get more people interested, and a super effective one at that. Personally, I knew about the particle accelerator experiment about 9 months ago, and not due to some random person telling me that they were going to create a black hole in the middle of Sweden. Blame it on my addiction to writing sci-fi.
Currently waiting around for my dad to pick me up and take me to see the Stray Cats. It seems he’s late, either that or he fed me false information so that I would be ready by the time he got here. Trouble is, I am ready… so ready that I came and started writing a blog our of boredom. When God closes a door, he smashes a window!

I don't think people grasp the idea of neutral discussion. Question Time shouldn't be about laying into the racist twit, well, not overtly. 2 weeks ago
Is it common for the guests on Question Time to completely ignore the existence of their co-guests? 2 weeks ago
