It's like coming back to your hometown to see the town hall's clock still stopped at 10:04. Isn't it reassuring?

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!

Canadians Not So Different After All
Nobody wants to be prejudiced. But sometimes you can be biased and not even realize it. I think many Americans are biased in this way against Canadians. I never really stopped to think about it, but I myself used to be this way. I guess I thought that Canadians were "stuck-up" — you know, smarter and better cultured than us. But then I got educated about Canadia. (More...)
