Third Voice Is COOLIO
1999-06-09 16:18:17
OK, I -KNOW- it's a totally evil privacy-invading brain sucker, but I LOVE this software. It's like MST3K for the WEB!
Third Voice is a crazy browser add-on a la Alexa that gloms onto your browser and doesn't let go. The deal is that you can put sticky notes on a Web page, and then read those notes when you get back later.
The COOL part is that you can read OTHER people's notes, too. You can put up a note on the CNN war coverage page that says, "What a crock of BULLHONKEY!!!!" and every other TV user can see it. I mean, HOW COOL IS THAT!?
The extra-super-cool feature is that only people who have 3rd Voice can see your notes. It's like those cool special alien glasses in "They Live"! Rowdy Roddy Piper's comin' to your house to make you install Third Voice!
OK, so, true, they're probably racking up metric tons of data on you as you cruise around, and the ph3ds will probably arrive at your door minutes after you write something derogatory on the IRS web site, but SCREW IT. Have some fun and DEFACE some INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY today!

Clowns Take on God in Mysterious Annual Ceremony
Last Sunday's (the 6th) Grimaldi Service at a small church in East London was a red-letter day for clowns worldwide. About a hundred old-school red-nosed clowns made the sombre trip to darkest Dalston to pay their respects to clowns who died in the last year and to thank God for the gift of laughter in a bizarre ceremony presided over by the eccentric Reverend Clown Roly, resplendent in a garish red lumberjack shirt with oversized gold lapels.

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
