Fluffy Links – Wednesday August 22nd 2007

Simon wants to create a newspaper. You in?

Nice prank letter.

I was first thinking Robocop but then I was reminded of the bad guy in Last Action Hero. oh you kooky crazy Marines!

RTE News items plotted on a map. Nice one John Ward. Think a little more fiddling is needed. Donegal is not below burkina faso.

eBay does deal with An Post for their powersellers. About time An Post, now that letter post is all but dried up, they need to start looking at other revenue generators.

Twenty Major does not like the new look IrishBlogs.ie, what do you think?

Google backtracks over cutting off Google Pay Video but still lie through their teeth. Will now pay people in cash. The great search engine forgot the details of those that bought videos so they thought they’d send them vouchers instead. Yeah bloody right.

Ooooh. Schulze and Webb are designing a hardware radio for the Beeb that’s all socially and stuff. Webb, as I mentioned before gave a fantastic talk at Reboot.

Foals – Mathletics. We like.

Via You Ain’t No Picasso: Two Headed Boy – John Cameron Mitchell covers Neutral Milk Hotel. Out of synch but it don’t matter.

    The new Irish Blogs layout is totally pants. It is dull, cluttered (2 right hand side columns?), seems to have been designed to make it much less obvious who wrote the material (blog names are tiny), and it doesn’t seem to be updating very often now.

    Hi Damien,
    Thanks for the link. Updated it since to use Yahoo pipes with Yahoo maps. Problem is Google Mashup Editor tries to plot it on map even if the geo location can’t be figured out, Yahoo maps doesn’t.

    re:Please get tid of my email adress.
    They linked their name.
    Its spam for a myspage band page.

    Break the link SEO trick on the back
    of your traffic.
