The last episode of Friends aired a few minutes ago. I used to be a fan years ago, but to be honest I haven’t watched it much in a while. Good episode though.

Traces of Fire
Pretty cool idea here.. Go out for a few drinks, enjoy yourself, leave a cigarette lighter behind. See what happens to the lighter… in Limerick!
Hot out isn't it?
Believe it or not, it’s barely rained in 2 weeks in Ireland! Temperatures are in the mid-twenties and we’re dying here in the heat. It’s great! That’s a sure sign that school exams are about to start!
So, what’s it like in Barcelona these days? Hey – J! Hope you’re having a great time there 🙂
Keeping The Flat Clean: Living Space As User Interface
Search for "Jew"
I possibly need a “Search Engine” category. Hmm, especially if I put anything down about my SEO experiences! 😉
Anyhow, via the Google Blog comes an article explaining why anti-Semitic websites showed up in a search for the word Jew. In the interest of fairness, I also search for the words Christian, Muslim, Church of Ireland, Protestant and Catholic. A quick glance shows that most (all?) of the top-ranked sites listed on those searches are ones in favour of the searched for religion/church.
Why can’t we have dissenting voices? Is all good and pearly white in the world again?
Right click – interesting site?
I open all my links in new tabs usually, but sometimes my mouse scrolls the page when I hit middle-mouse-button, and I get some completely different website .. Here’s one I discovered earlier. Looks interesting.

Nick Berg
Here’s a harrowing and horrible description of the video of Nick Berg’s murder. I think once you’ve read it you won’t want to watch the movie. I certainly don’t. (via John)
Later… blogrunner has lots more to say.. (via referer links)
Later Still… Wikipedia Page about the man.
Kerry, Kerry, Kerry..
and in other news, Robert Fisk writes about an attack on wounded Iraqis by US helicopters.. Here’s the unreal, shocking video of the event.
“there’s a wounded one, get him”
Stoppies, Again!
A few months ago a guy biked up and down outside the office here doing stoppies and basically making a lot of noise and destroying his bike! Well, here’s a much better photo of a stoppie from a great angle. Owen – want to oblige sometime?
