Who Needs Privacy When You Can Have Twitter Instead!

Now that's a fun, yet a bit extreme, use for Twitter. Anti Privacy is a Greasemonkey extension (ie javascript) bit that, simply put, tweets every URL you visit, as seen for instance here.

Air Guitar Championships

In a few days (September 5-7, 2007) Finland will be holding the Air Guitar World Championships. WTF, you say?

La Véritable Caricature de Mahomet

La véritable caricature de Mahomet, la seule, l'unique, la première, elle n'a jamais fait de vagues, elle n'a jamais déclenché une hystérie collective dont j'avoue d'ailleurs ne pas comprendre ne serait-ce que la légalité, et elle a même fait rire tout le monde.
