  • Smart Pox is uber-2.0. It lets you create 2d barcodes, linked to url/images etc, and then scan them with a mobile phone app. I'm not sure that the possibilites are endless, but there could be a "killer app" (or more correctly "killer implementation") for this idea.
  • Banksy strikes again, at Disney. Wired recently proposed "Crocheted replica of subway map cracks DRM on collection of old video games" as the perfect boingboing post, but actually "Banksy infiltrates Big Thunder Mountain to plant handmade shackled Guantanamo sex doll" is the perfect Cory/Xeni post.
  • Wikipedia random page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Randompage
  • Headline of the day: 10 Stingrays Killed Since Irwin's Death. Quote: "there is still no need to ... kill or mutilate these important animals."
  • Another good 9/11 diagram by Ben Schott, in the NYT (via).
  • Ever notice how the word undeniable (Google meme watch) is oxymoronic in its own right? Anything "undeniable" just begs to be refuted.
  • Actually scratch that; it begs to be confuted. Great WOTD, meaning to refute conclusively.
