Extra, Extra! (blog-off entry #5)

Yeah, so it's been a long day, and I think I'm going to cop out of writing a full entry of substance by putting up some links of recommended reading on the interwebs. I do this because I've recently come to the realization that a laptop is the new newspaper. So much information, so many new stories, updating all the time. It's really worth it sometimes to take a look around...

Great article on the current state of Chinese pollution @ Mother Jones

As if they weren't good enough: discovery that blueberries reverse memory loss

In 1518 almost 400 people died from... a dancing plague?

"Most remote (inhabited) place on Earth", where I would go if I ever wanted to disappear

In case you were looking for pictures of Swedish dance bands from the 70's?

Yes, the internet is a... strange, strange thing.

-s

p.s. if it looks like I'm writing these entries at odd hours, its because the site is recording times in Seattle, not China. I'll get around to changing it.
