Teeny Tile

Two-inch square ceramic tiles printed with an image of your choice.

In the fast-paced tile industry they should look to acquire BG patterns before they get snatched up by someone else. Seeing some great synergistic potential (seriously).

God damn this is amazing. I mean, there were extreme sports before this - but this sort of redefines the term, right? See also: Speed riding.

In defense of my vice: Friendfeed


FriendFeed by homard.net

It all started out innocently enough. I’d used Delicious for years to store links I found useful, but then along came Friendfeed and suddenly my digital footprints were being judged. What made some links “like-able” and others not? How come no one was commenting on all the interesting stuff I was sharing? Why won’t people add me as their virtual friend :)

Of course the number of followers, friends, and likes doesn’t really matter in the end (right??) but I still can’t help reloading my FF page unnecessarily to see if anything I like is being liked by others.

So now I’m wondering…will this new Plinky character help or hurt my habit?
