On funny things… at least I think so
OMG kitten Mittons are real!
Not just an Always Sunny in Philadelphia joke anymore!
Kitten Mittons!
After Tortuga had her kittens, the clatter of tiny paws was almost deafening. We really could have used a whole case of these!
Homeopathy Illustrated
This is a great description of Homeopathy. I have occasionally pointed out to (usually unreceptive friends) a few of the curious consequences of logic in Homeopathy, but this little cartoon is a far more entertaining analysis:
this took less than 10 minutes
The “like” button got added about 10 minutes ago.
I guess people have some issues with facebook, or get the irony. Either way pretty cool that 495 people liked it in the first 10 minutes. And that’s from 2 of 8 servers (meaning 75% of visitors don’t see it yet).
I like that.
Facebook Open Graph
AWESOME! Facebook open graph lets you grab data from facebook with an oauth connection. They hand back some amazing data for your exploitation pleasure. You get automatic login with a default privacy set to allow. I’m sure they will carefully vet every site they give permit, just like they say they will, and so you can be sure they’ve visited the companies, performed background checks and submitted everyone at the applying company to a lie detector test.
;-)
Until then try the sample code so you can see what sorts of things you get back, like this query:
Then vary the object ID. (..com/objectid?acc…) Poking around to 4 I get:
{ “id”: “4”, “name”: “Mark Zuckerberg”, “first_name”: “Mark”, “last_name”: “Zuckerberg”, “link”: “http://www.facebook.com/zuck”, “birthday”: “05/14/1984”, “work”: [ { “employer”: { “id”: 20531316728, “name”: “Facebook” }, “start_date”: “2004-02” } ], “education”: [ { “school”: { “id”: 105930651606, “name”: “Harvard University” }, “concentration”: [ { “id”: 111394625549982, “name”: “Computer Science” } ] }, { “school”: { “id”: 108366532520435, “name”: “Phillips Exeter Academy” }, “year”: { “id”: 115476681798224, “name”: “2002” } } ], “timezone”: -7, “updated_time”: “2010-02-14T09:05:15+0000” }
Substitute any username for the query object and get that user’s profile (friend or not). Increment through all possible object IDs and collect the entire FB data set.

Multi-Lingual Graffiti
The “Vulva” theme has faded, this is a thought-provoking replacement.
My nuts are cold
UAL Triple 7, three class plane, cross country flight (SFO-IAD): about as far as you can fly CONUS to CONUS, and I can’t get my nuts warmed?
I’d trade the puffy comforter for warm nuts any day.
Measures of Society
type “is ” into the Google search bar in FireFox and you get:
“why” is even funnier
I’ve always wondered why I can’t own a Canadian… thanks Google!
Best QA Evar!
Looks like the latest update of Motorola Phone Tools wasn’t quite ready to ship…
