			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last year, around the same time, we spotted a very interesting service that made it possible to dress five people as elfs and have them perform a dance afterwards. The <a href="http://www.ghacks.net/2007/12/17/elf-yourself/">Elf Yourself</a> craze was born and it quickly became a popular website. On a sidenote, my nephew who was 4 at the time, loved to see his family dance the elf dance.</p>
<p>This year the <a href="http://elfyourself.jibjab.com/">Elf Yourself</a> website has been redesigned. There is a bit more of advertisement on the website but also additional content to make up for it. Don&#8217;t worry! There is still the classic elves dance for those who might have missed it last year or cannot get enough of it.</p>
<p>In addition though you can now see them dance Disco, Country or Charleston as well each with a unique stage and effects. The music is obviously also different on every stage.</p>
<p><span id="more-8353"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/elf_yourself-500x282.jpg" alt="elf yourself" title="elf yourself" width="500" height="282" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-8354" /></p>
<p>The developers have added possibilities to download the videos to the desktop or post them on various social networking sites like MySpace or <a href="http://www.ghacks.net/2009/10/17/facebook-login/">Facebook</a>. Expect a huge increase in Elf Yourself appearances on those sites.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This sounds like one of those plots to conquer the world in comic series like Pinky &#038; The Brain. The Piratebay (and fellowship) are planing to raise enough money to buy the <a target="_blank" title="sealand" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealand">Principality of Sealand</a> located in the North Sea off the coast of Suffolk. I&#8217;m not sure if they really intend to buy Sealand because the sovereignty was never recognized by another country.</p>
<p><a target="_blank" title="buy sealand" href="http://buysealand.com/?cat=1">Buying Sealand</a> looks more like a publicity stunt to me than a real en devour that would result in the creation of a country that would have no laws against piracy whatsoever. Everyone who would donate money to &#8220;the cause&#8221; will receive citizenship which leads to the question where they want to accommodate all their citizens if the purchase would indeed take place.</p>
<p><span id="more-1096"></span>The initiators even think one step ahead. If they can&#8217;t collect enough money to buy Sealand they intend to buy a small island somewhere in this world. Here is a quote from the official <a target="_blank" title="piratebay blog" href="http://thepiratebay.org/blog">piratebay blog</a>.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;The price for Sealand is probably about $2.000.000.000. We don&#8217;t really care. We&#8217;re going for it anyhow! We really want to see what the community can do &#8211; with it&#8217;s own island. Since we are all for sharing the country would be shared amongst us all.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>What is your take on the matter ? Great idea or bogus one ?</p>
