Tuesday Link Fiesta #3: The Internet Is F'ing Crazy
- Samaritan Iverson Aids Crash Victims: "Imagine the surprise of two women as Iverson crouched down in the median to find out if they were injured when their car flipped over along Interstate 64 near Hampton, Va."
- the "blog" of "unnecessary" quotation marks: From the FAQ of this hilarious blog... "What's a bigger waste of time? Blogging about something you find amusing, or telling a blogger how dumb or boring her blog is? I can't believe people are interested in it either, I'm just doing this for fun." The blog's got nearly 400 posts haha wow
- According to an obituary published in 2004, Francis Crick, the man credited with inventing the double helix model for DNA, took small amounts of LSD during his time at Cambridge University which provided for his spatial visualization of this breakthrough scientific discovery.
- Big news this week, Radiohead surprised everyone with the sudden announcement of the upcoming release of their new album In Rainbows. They gave us 10 days warning before the release date, but that wasn't the biggest surprise... They are releasing the album on their own (without a record label!) for digital download. And get this, the price is whatever you want it to be! An econ blog that I've got on RSS picked up this story and ponders the potential economic outcome of this revolutionary model of distribution without the universal middle-man (of money!).
- Pitchfork Media interviewed the superstars of Daft Punk about whats been going on lately with them: the ridiculous Alive 2007 tour, their collaboration with Kanye West, the proliferation of French house, what they dance to, as well as their current projects (new material?).
- This is a link to a hilarious article about someone who re-envisioned the Myers-Brigg personality types in a completely different light. I'm a mix between The Evil Overlord (ENTP) and The Egghead (INTP) haha. Make sure you link to the original article after reading the summary, its hilarious. [Via Mind Hacks]
