- After my video has had 10^6 views on YouTube, I have learned, firsthand, the sad truth about such things.
- Costume for people who like Big meatballs.
- The ID Please flickr group.
- Cute 500 watt cat
- My new favorite expression: “Sneakier than a dehydrated grape brick.”
- Whoever put together the graphs on page 9 of this PDF datasheet (for an SMT DC-DC converter) should be shot.
- Hey Okies, what’s with your tasteless new license plates? (via).
- I bet that magnetically controllable liquid photonic crystals would be fun to play with.
- I could look at this table of data structures all day long. link.
- I bet that the people who run this blog are as freaked out by looking at Evil Mad Scientist as we are when we look at their page.
- I like LED Jack o’lanterns
- List of electrical plugs in different countries. Yup, that’s useful.
- I like that the BBC has an updated Dalek Cake recipe.
- Beware, there may be Daleks already lurking in your kitchen.
- I wish that I had a good excuse to build a web site based on tiddlywiki; I really like the interface.
- Speaking of awesome things, check out this video made with Google Street View. It should be longer.
Haha, wow, those are some amazing charts for the DC/DC converter! :P
Oooh, I want some of the magnetically controllable liquid photonic crystals. Sweet.
Oh crap, why did you have to put a link to the bagsnob blog? I think I am going to have nightmares tonight. Geeks should not view horrors such as that.
Must think of better things… like physics… and… peanut butter… and the physics of peanuts growing, being harvested, shipped, processed, and packaged to make peanut butter. Oh, and physics projects using a peanut butter jar. Ah, yes, much better.

When I got my first "real" circuit design job one of the first things they threw me at me were datasheets, because noone else wanted to maintain them and we didn’t have anything like a technical writer. So don’t always expect that a seasoned engineer with 30 years experience is making the plots you see there, it might be the summer intern. :-)
True. But still– Even the summer intern should know better than that.

Tiddlywiki is cool, but I think the MonkeyPirate extension takes it to a whole new level
Loving that periodic table of visualization methods, thanks for the link!
