- Mint Digital has published a post detailing some of the things that happened at UGTV ’06 The whole ‘making a show of a website’ idea has been around for a while though – b3ta being the best example of this in the UK. Sadly unrecognised for most of its innovations as ever.
- Wikia is tracking the furore over the censoring of major weblog sites across India This whole thing happened while I was on holiday, so I’ve missed a lot, but apparently geocities, typepad and Blogspot were affected by the ban…
- An interesting vague poll on the meaning of ‘several’ plus a million comments about it Personal conclusions – ‘couple’ means two, ‘few’ means three and maybe four, several is in excess of four but under ten, averaging out to mean a median of something like seven things…
- The BBC has this weird article on hot weather risks But screw that, the fun bit is the Flash widget thing with the slider that allows you to expose a poor fake cut-through man to increasing amounts of heat until he looks like he’s going to blow up. Nice!
- VH1’s Best Week Ever presents an alternative take on the Mac ads… Never let it be said that obsessive fanatical ridiculous Apple obsessives can’t laugh at themselves. Ironic t-shirts. Ha.
- Penny Arcade takes on Loco Roco, my new absolute favourite super awesome PSP game I bought myself a PSP for my birthday after Andy from Flock persuaded me that Loco Roco which I’d never seen was so awesome I had to have it, and now I do and it is and I’m so happy I could die…
- Awesome trailer (in Japanese) for Loco Roco that might explain why I love it so That music is played all the way through the game, sometimes with just one voice, other times with many voices in harmony. It’s hard to explain why it’s so good.
- Which five things would you print off the internet before the apocalypse came and left us without technology or something? Matt Jones asks the question that I’m too afraid to answer but has been occupying my soul for the last four days…

Yaxlich would like to thank Tom for pointing out the article on the BBC website which he had previously missed despite being a regular visitor. As a result Yaxlich has written to the BBC health experts to ask at what temperature it is normal to suffer from Betty Swollocks and whether they will incorporate this on their Falsh animation. He will notify Tom of any response he gets.
