  • BGBlitz2Go launched about an hour ago. I've been playing it solidly ever since on my Nokia N80. The future really is here, when the world's strongest backgammon program can run on your mobile phone. It's a free download, so grab it now.
  • The Vice article on Cambridge drinking clubs was a blast from the past for me. On the morning of my first dissection, in my first week as a medical student at Cambridge, I woke up in the flower beds around Trinity Fountain, after a particularly harsh medics' initiation.
  • Hot on the heels of the news that Britain's rat population is larger than its human population (in number, not biomass), The Guardian give us a handy classification of littering, with the worst varieties of litter being: "Construction waste, flaming scooter, horse carcass."
  • Kottke reports on snowclones, as a modern form of cliche, somehow omitting my x is a gateway drug for y snowclone, which was in fact my first ever kottkedotting two years ago. Did you ever notice though that if you add GMail to del.icio.us it now automagically claims to be the Best. Email. Ever.
  • The movie String, for which I was the original camerman and 2nd AD, premieres on Sunday. I'm sure it's sold out, but I'm proud of my only cinematic meisterwerk.
