Seemingly random tidbits about [neat|awesome|great|stupid|real?|fake!|whatever|pfft|waste of time|umm... ok|etc] things spotted here, there, everywhere... aka rants, raves, and whatever other lunacy strikes my fancy!

Billy Idol is an idiot!

Evidently Mr. Idol wasn't happy with his hard-top Lamborghini any more and decided it needed a sunroof. So he picked up some sort of electric saw and went to work. I'm not a huge exotic car fanatic or anything, but this is just another example of how slow Darwinism sometimes works.

Eyes without a face... Head without a brain... Just dumb.

Yahoo Messenger Phone calls?!

The latest version of Yahoo Messenger now supports free phonecalls. Rather nifty. I cannot wait to get a headset and give it a try with friends around the world... I wonder if it'll work, perhaps as a paid service, to regular phone numbers. Hmm...

Where will the random bus take me today?

Another blog I read has made mention of an Apple iPod shuffle-branded city bus spotted in Toronto. I wish there was more fully branded campaigns in general. Apple's done a nice job with the iPod bus, and previously with Toronto subway and the underground tube station in central London and some building in Australia.

I wonder why more companies don't do this. It looks great when it's done well! And as a fan of the product (in the case of the iPod), I can't help but smile :)
