I need to play with the template of this blog so I can elegantly post quick little one-line links to things that amuse me, a la the New New sidebar on the old Old is the New New. Then I can resume linking to things like these:
- I have to admit I thought Twitter was a pretty stupid idea until I saw this, which almost makes living in the future worthwhile.
- Edit: Taxipunk is the new Clockpunk
is the new steampunk. (“You can now create new subgenres of speculative fiction by simply putting “punk” after anything… Taxipunk delves into the sociopolitical ramifications of taxicabs existing in places and times that, in actual history, did not benefit from taxicabs.“) - Calvert “Larry “Bud” Melman” DeForest is dead, alas.
- But did you ever think to ask why Fonzie jumped that shark?
- Confidential to Planetary readers: a mathematician in Maryland appears to have mapped the Snowflake.
Oh, right: those papers I was grading.

That’s amazingly addictive. I just watched about fifty different people all over the globe complain that they haven’t had enough coffee yet this morning.
