The Best Stories of 2006 That Shouldn’t Have Happened

My friend Everton has compiled a list of the best stories of 2006 that should not have happened on his connected internet blog. If you want to read again about the guy who wanted to apply as a cleaner at the BBC but was mistaken for an Apple iTunes expert or the 15 year old Google employee then it is time to pay his excellent site a visit.

I know that this article is a little bit short but the real one is not here but at his website, go there now and enjoy the read.

Unsuggester and some Apache .htaccess tips

If you read allot of books, it’s always nice to know if there are others books that you might like based on a list of books you like.
Well Unsuggester is kinda like that, but then the other way around.
You type in a title of a book you like, and the site servers you a list of books you will probably not like.
It is not very useful, but who knows maybe you’ll find a nice book even though the system says you will probably not like it.

Yahoo bought a site I never heard about

Ever heard about Bix ? Bix.com to be precise. Don’t be ashamed to admit that you never heard about it either. I read about the site today and decided to pay a visit to website I never heard about before. I always thought I know everything that is going on but it seems that some sites seem to slip through my grasps. Back to Bix: Bix is a contest site that seems to be pretty famous for it’s Karaoke contests.

Southpark Nintendo Wii Episode

What is going on in Southpark ? After the highly successful World of Warcraft Episode the producers published a second episode that is centered around entertainment technology. Cartman longs for the Nintendo Wii and can’t wait the three weeks until it will be released in the United States. He comes to the conclusion that deep freezing himself is the only solution which reduces the wait time. The plan goes terribly wrong.. but see for yourself.

Germany introduces Internet Tax

Please read on this is a funny story, I promise that. Germans pay about 19$ a month if they own a television. This fee was introduced right after the war to make it possible that state independent tv stations would be able to run without receiving money from the state. There were only those stations after the war and it made sense at this time. Nowadays you have dozens of tv stations but you still pay the money for those state independent ones (all other stations don’t see a dime of that money).

The iPod Bomb Incident

This is a funny story I read on the World of Warcraft forums. A guy who is playing World of Warcraft was on his flight from the United States to Canada to meet some of his fellow clan members. He used the toilet on that flight and witnessed afterwards that the stewardesses were acting strangely. Something seemed to keep the toilet from flushing. The guy immediatly thought it was his fault but decided not to tell them because of this embarassing situation.
