Gravatar Properly Syncing Again: Well, it’s been over two weeks of hell, but Tom Werner finally pulled through and fixed everything. Gravatars, as implemented here, now work properly. The only question left is… where did he go? -
Xkcd blag: The creator of this hyper-nerdy web-comic also maintains a “blag”, where he has amassed an enormous following for his ponderings. For example, which is bigger? The Clarkkkkson, or the xkcd number? -
Ventrilo: This has been around for a while, but it has recently been implemented for Wikimedia Foundation discussion, bringing it to my attention. Ventrilo, as in ventriloquist, is VoIP gone IRC. In other words, you can create fully functional network chat rooms… that communicate by microphone. - Quadradius: You haven’t ever played multiplayer quite like this. Quadradius is, in effect, a board game; a simplified chess where all pieces can move in four directions. But as the intro video states, “this would get pretty boring”, so the board is riddled with powerups of all sorts. You have to play it to believe how addicting this is.

#fedora: This channel is simply gigantic and is always buzzing with troubleshooting Fedora Core 6 of Redhat Linux. Get it? Fedora… Redhat… eh, it’ll come. - Wordpress at SxSW: Apparently Matt’s gotten some childhood nostalgia and set-up a Wordpress meetup close to the South by Southwest conference in Austin just yesterday. And apparently, everyone was there.
- Prison Break Wiki: The wiki with pretty extensive information on one of the most plot-twisted shows on television: Prison Break. It warns about spoilers, but forget that; you need something like this to follow the plot. Who would have thought the corrupt president would step down from her post after being blackmailed from both sides of the law?
