Snippets

Long time no post.

Anyway, here goes:

• I finally checked out what del.icio.us is all about, and became instantly addicted.. Only to have them lose power a few days after I created an account.
• Another not-so-recent ‘discovery’: Metafilter (or MeFi as the young kids seem to call it), and subsite ask Metafilter.
• Quote from the yesterday-evening radio news “Ariel Sharon briefly lost consciousness.” I tought he had permanently lost consciousness years ago.
• In other “politicans gone mad”-news: “The US president tells America Iraq is now a strong ally against terror and a force for democracy in the Middle East.” Yeah right..
• A must-read: “The Great War for Civilisation: The Conquest of the Middle East” by Robert Fisk. Not a happy Christmasy holiday book perhaps, but inspiring nonetheless.
