White Smoke: a grammar and proofreading tool. If you can sit through the “demo”, you’ll see “idioms” misspelled as “idimos.” Priceless. {via}

Belt Buckle Knife: “how fast can you whip yours out.” You wouldn’t believe how long I’ve been sitting on this. This guy’s a hoot! {via}

Flickr Group “We’d love to have your photo added to the group”: oh I love the subversive nature of this. And it even has a flashing invitation.

“It Isn’t Easy Being Green”: since today is Blog Action Day—yet another way for a blogger to do as little as possible and feel like they’re doing something important—I thought it appropriate to link to an anti-environmentalist site. {via}

Brad Paisley “Online”: funny country music video. I’m not a big fan of country, but maybe this is the breakout inspiration for a subgenre like nerdcore hiphop. I shall call it “geek country”—you heard it here first. {via}

PicUrls: the best pictures of the social bookmarking sites. Very useful.

Library Arcade: library-themed online Flash games. And boy are they as fun as you’d expect. The “I’ll Get It” isn’t too shabby, I guess.

Turntablist Transcription Method: I remember reading that DJ Radar was working on something like this.

Sony Bravia - “Pyramid”: damn that had to be a lot of work. Just like this “Bunnies” ad in New York. But they sure don’t think small for these ads.

Craigslist - “Survival of the Fittest”: this is a hilarious method for eating M&Ms. I don’t see it working for any of the nut-based ones, though.

Atomic Platters: Cold War-era nuclear-themed music like the timeless “Duck and Cover”.

[UPDATE: I would be remiss if I didn't also link to this page about The Goldwaters, a folk group formed to support Barry Goldwater.]

Department of Peace and Nonviolence: legislation sponsored by Dennis Kucinich (Democratic presidential contender) to create a Cabinet-level department. He seems too square to have been a hippy.

Hillary Clinton on Record Oil Profits: she wants to steal the money and use it to try and put the oil companies out of business. It doesn’t get any more naked or blatant than that, folks. If elected, she’ll pay you to have babies and steal from industries she doesn’t like.
