No.

Bump!
How to write like a
wanker.
I think most of us know and practice this already.
What we need now is a page to tell us how to wank like a writer. We could ask Brock, as he inflicts his verbal diarrhoea on everyone in flickr central.

Alfie: The tiePod is rather upsetting. But then musical ties usually are, as are ties in general.
But ties now have
two purposes.
1. To keep soup and/or gravy and/or curry sauce off your shirt front.
2. To house you iPod/compatible sound system.
heh -- oops. wh & me crossposted on two different months' linky threads at the same time. that'll teach me. something. not sure what.
hey, i reckon we should keep bumping BOTH threads all thru to end of march. just, cos, you know, it... umm
i saw this and thought it might be a laugh. plus a chance of a superfit bird!

I havent read it yet but I had this idea a year or so ago. I was going to pretend to be a tramp blogging from the various public internetphone things in the waterloo area. Of course I never went through with it.

There's something rather apt and rather poignant about the fact that the ENGLISH wikipedia's !ONE MILLIONTH article is on the subject of
trainspotting
"and the urine runs off the edge of the unsupported glass walkway to form a magnificent rainbow-starred yellow circle-curtain below you as you look down into the beautiful Grand Canyon."
check this out:
SearchScapes
kinda halfway between a cyberspace flythrough and googlemaps.
essentially maps the density of Search queries to particular Manhattan addresses, represents them by height, as "buildings" constructted of the search query strings that make them up. It then lets you "fly" through the resultant model of the city.
click&drag on the plan and elevation views on Left to "fly". note you can adjust your height, and can even fly under the city.
Each person constructs his/her image of the city. This image is made out of facts, memories, experiences, stories, news - mostly invisible data, and not only of architecture, buildings and streets.
"SEARCHSCAPES: MANHATTAN" is an attempt to create a tridimensional map of Manhattan, using existing data from the web.
The objective is to compare the city's "physical spaces" and "information spaces" (search results). This is an attempt to materialize information: to give it dimension and physicality.
"SEARCHSCAPES: MANHATTAN" was developed as a thesis project at the Interactive Telecommunications Program at New York University.

Why are you putting links into Febuary still?
Posted by

Because I'm living in the past.
click through the link and read the news item
I did, and could find no reference to urine.
because we started the march thread in february. seems only fair.
wh: what's a renowned human reaction to extreme fear? what's a probable reaction of humans who have walked out on to an unsupported glass shelf hanging over the middle of the grand canyon? what's the water speed of a european swallow water-skiing for the first time?

They shit themselves.
That Jaws spoof was crap. I had a peek at the Babewatch one as well, and that was WORSE. Fucking amateurs.
