If you’re about to visit the wonderful Copenhagen next time, make sure you bring your car. So called Speedbandits then will gracefully remind you of the speed limits.

Has anyone in Copenhagen actually seen them? I also wonder what her majesty Queen Margrethe II thinks of this.

The german hosted blogging-service blogg.de accidentally deleted all comments from user weblogs last Friday. This worst case scenario occured when the administrators tried to fight down comment spam platform-wide. And due to corrupt backup files, all previously saved database dumps from mid-August to December 5th are useless. [#]

My 2 cents:

1. Shouldn’t large user-content-driven sites have local test-environments?
2. Shouldn’t important backups always be checksummed?

Of course this will never happen here, thanks to WordPress Database Backup.

Ever wanted to know where to get Pepper Self-Spray, an iPod Shredder, Fortune Cookies with Medical Test Results or a brand new Whore-Ganizer?

Well, if you check out the SkyMaul Catalog Parody, chances are that you’ll find such macabre, absurd and socially offending products.

This new beta version of Skype supports public chats and Skypecasts. Users can participate or start moderated public phone conferences.
Go get the Skype 3.0 Beta for Windows.

Conspicious was the fact that Skype 3.0 Beta also installed a Firefox Extension. Could this be the necessary interface to my idea of the Skype Links Extension?

The 3.0 beta is available for WinXP/2k only. Since the Mac version just learned the video function, it may take some time until these new community functions are implemented in the OS X version of Skype.

Update: Now Skype 2.5 Beta is out for Mac.

All things have an interface. Shaping interfaces is shaping the character of things. The brand is what transports the character of things. When looking at McDonalds, iPod, Nintendo DS it becomes quite obvious that the interface is the brand.

From: The Interface of a Cheeseburger. A vigorous article which teaches you that branding hasn’t necessarily to be pretty, but strong.
