I was sure I had posted this earlier, but the Yuri Suzuki Tube Map radio is excellent.

Sep 18th: In followup to my previous post, someone has spent the time to create Spotify playlists for all of the Festive Fifties from 1976 to 2011, including the two all-time lists. Some excellent listening.
In honor of Mr Ward's first podcast (in addition to my remix) I put together a Spotify playlist of all the Festive Fifty number ones. There are a few missing, due to gaps in the Spotify catalog:
If they appear later on Spotify, I'll add them in the relevant position.
Aug 31st: The World of Warcraft 5.0.4 patch has been out for 2 days, so it's about time I published a new addon. BuffGuide shows you your raid buff status (for the new 8 buff system), along with food and flask buffs, replacing the long-ago discontinued BuffEnough. Source is on GitHub.

This recreation of Japan in a mere 1,800,800 Lego bricks is pretty impressive. With 5000 builders, that's only 360 bricks each. With a relative scale, most of these buildings would be in space.
Reminds me (in scale, if nothing else) of the Lego house from the BBC's Toy Story series.
Aug 15th: This is my cam is really nicely done; a profile of each camera you've used on Flickr. Chris has a little write up about how it came to be.
If you were a fan of Cube (which you should be), then you should definitely check out The Vault.
It's a web series that started last year, but has just gotten a big influx of viewers. Watch all 7 episodes and then share your theories with me on twitter.
As a bonus, try solving the puzzle on their blog. Should take about 20 minutes (puzzle spoiler).
Aug 10th: Patricio Palladino has done a really nice job with hieroglyphy, a library for turning any JavaScript code into strings of only ()[]{}!+. The explanation of his blog is a great read.
Aug 10th: Björn Höhrmann's excellent compact UTF-8 decoder is one of those C masterpieces that makes you realize quite how powerful the language can be.
