See this video, the evidence that in hundreds of years of existence, people have learnt... nothing. This video shows a sale at American Apparel in London getting way out of hand.  

 

 

I always thought butterflies were friendly little animals ;-)

Congratulations to all Drupal developers with Drupal's 9th birthday! Besides "turning 9", Drupal 7 alpha 1, the collective work of over 800 core contributors, was also released today. It now includes key contributed modules such as CCK and ImageField, and ofcourse loads of other new stuff.

Tuesday Microsoft released it's new virusscanner Security Essentials which is free for users of Genuine Windows XP, Vista and 7. It replaces Microsoft's Live OneCare software, however it does not feature backup and firewall software.
 
Microsoft Security Essentials provides real-time protection for your home PC that guards against viruses, spyware, and other malicious software.

Wednesday Microsoft announced Windows 7 is ready! As a satisfied Vista user (yeah, I am probably one of few...) I can't wait to run Windows 7, hope it's in stores soon.

Be famous on Mars! NASA lets you submit your name to be sent on NASA's next Mars rover. If you submit your name it will be included with others on a microchip on the Mars Science Laboratory rover heading to Mars in 2011. Just fill out the form here: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/participate/sendyourname/

Rather strange website I ran into: http://www.flusurvivors.com/. Shows the number of people who didn't die from the swine flu yet.

Since a few weeks I am the proud owner of a Chumby. This device looks and acts like an alarm clock but it can do much more. Hundreds of widgets allow you to Twitter, read RSS feeds, E-mail, view webcams and much more! The Chumby runs on Linux, uses wireless Internet and is just GREAT, specially for a gadget freak like me. Hard to get in Europe unfortunately, but not impossible as I have one here ;-)

Bored? Feel like chatting to somebody completely strange? You can on Omegle! This website connects you random to another user of it's website for a personal one-on-one chat. It's webbased, so no difficult stuff, just chat! Fun for a rainy day...

I've been using it for a while now, and using it more and more each day: Windows Live Mesh. This is a great solution for managing and synchronizing multiple PC's, for example a desktop and laptop, and even more PC's.
