Linktastic!
I’m going to Michigan (again!) to take care of some random foofy wedding stuff. Here’s some links to amuse you guys while I’m gone. (Actually, when you read this, I should be on a plane somewhere over Lake Michigan, reading War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells. I collected links throughout the week, and I’m using the WordPress “edit timestamp” feature to post this in the future. Who says time travel can’t never work?)
- The Libertarian Party goes completely insane. (That’s the only thing I was thinking of while I was reading this. I used to consider myself a libertarian to some extent but not anymore.)
- Top Ten Funniest IT stories. I’ve never heard these before, and they are pretty funny.
- Completely eliminate IE from your machine. (If you do this, you’ll be using Mozilla for Windows Update!)
- Microsoft Intern blogs dinner with Bill Gates
- How fast do you read? (via waxy.org)
- What if companies spent all the money they would spend on advertising and spent it on customer experience instead? I thought it was a rhetorical question but it’s not; see if you can guess which famous company actually does this. (via kottke)
- IT IS THE BEIGE OF THE END TIMES. THE BEIGE THAT CONSUMES ALL. (via waxy.org)

I used to read ~800 wpm, but I have slowed to 75% of that rate. :sigh:
