The name says it all
Simple and to the point. This site has shit that the owners have found. What more can I say?
All your face are belong to us
I’ve got to be honest, I really don’t even understand what these are all about. But the bottom line is that some of them are absolutely hilarious.
Bringing the Internet to a screeching halt
A little application called Sloppy lets you easily simulate a slower internet connection, which can be crucial for testing how users will experience the loading of your web pages while still in a development environment.
All 9-1-1 operators are assisting other callers
What’s worse that being in a horrific car accidents? How about being in a horrific car accident and then getting a busy signal for 20 minutes when you call 9-1-1.
Saving lives with silence
An inspiring story, that will no doubt spark much debate, about how the New York Times and Wikipedia might have just saved the life of a Times reporter as well as the lives of a local reporter and their driver while they were being held captive in a Taliban prison.
Elephants on parade

Thank you Michael
I don’t know that anyone could explain it simpler better than when Anderson Cooper said, “what a long strange trip it’s been.” I don’t believe that any musician has ever or will ever be more influential to music, culture and the entire world thanMichael Jackson. Despite his eccentricities, bizarre life and alleged criminal discretions, his body of work is unparalleled. He will be missed.
