AOL (which owns Netscape) is now testing a version of Netscape’s browser to replace Internet Explorer as its interface. While this could have made a difference a few years ago, it is unlikely to touch off a new round of the browser wars now – instead it will just annoy web designers who will now have to make sure their sites cater to Netscape’s preferences as well as IE’s if they are going to be presented to AOL’s vast customer base in a good light.

Of course, in principle web designers shouldn’t rely on browser specific standards, so this discipline should be good for them…

(and what is the Internet but a way to get random interesting stuff to you?) I knew I was going to like didyouknow.com when it revealed the average American male is 1.75m (5’7″) tall – exactly my height.

I was also intrigued to learn that the official language of Vatican City is Latin and the Basque language is not related to any other language in the world – mind you, since the site relies on user submissions, this may or may not be true. Then again, you could say the same of anything you find on the Internet…

William Shatner has a messageboard on his site and posts to it from time to time. I wonder if he is jealous of Wil Wheaton (the actor who played Wesley Crusher on Star Trek) – his weblog has received several awards…

Have a happy International Women’s Day!

And a happy birthday to me…

In email conversation with a complete stranger the other day I discovered that not only did he read my weblog regularly, but he had actually made it his home page! Surely no greater compliment is possible… I have “borrowed” some code from Yahoo so that you, too, can make blog.org your home page with a single easy click – check out the right hand column under my “email notification” box.free movies hardcore fuckpussy movies hot freemovies free lesbian kissinglesbian free movies pussyfree lesbo clips moviefree masturbation movies maleclips movie free xxxsex clips movie free Map

Perhaps I haven’t publicised it enough but there is a space about two thirds of the way down this page on the right where you can enter your email address and be notified whenever I post anything up I consider particularly significant (the preceding post, for example).

I have recently finished Nick Hornby’s How To Be Good and reviewed it on epinions.

It reminded me of my own struggle to define what it means to me to act ethically, which began in my third year of university with a Philosophy course – the Introduction to Moral Reasoning.

I discovered then that I was a utilitarian, and that this makes certain demands on one’s behaviour. I was particularly struck by the notion that gross inequities around the world are un-justifiable and wrote an essay (now lost) that made what was to me a convincing argument that I should sell my goods and distribute the balance to the poor (or work only in order to maximise my income available to give away). Peter Tatchell, the gay rights activist, wrote recently about his struggle to do this – living in London on £7,000 a year (only a preview of his article is available for free).

Needless to say I don’t have the courage to do this myself. Like most liberals I content myself with donating at least 1% of my income to charity – there is a campaign to encourage more people to do this – and doing a little voluntary activism on behalf of my local park. But is this really enough? What is enough?

It is this question that Nick Hornby’s book raises, but does not answer.

By an odd coincidence, a similar struggle with conscience is published in the well-known community website, Fray, this week – a story of a man who tries to help a disabled man but ends up regretting his initial generous impulse when he feels more is being demanded of him than he can bring himself to give.motorola 1.99 vt3 ringtonein rd haubstadt 47639 warrington 1141ringtone 21028ge3-a melody2c 22east pa norrington 22free ringtone download nokia 2312313302312333232i download free nokia ringtoneaudiovox cdm 105 ringtonebarrington 1239 street halifax Map

Would you buy a “game” called – in all seriousness – Potty Bear Goes Poopy? I found it in among the rest of the games at Download.com. Here is the description:

“Potty Bear Goes Poopy is a multimedia program to instruct and make toilet training more enjoyable for your child. It has a step-by-step video section, an interactive storybook which is printable and two easy games (one pure fun and one more edutainment covering the steps involved in going potty).”

What I find most worrying is that it is a demo with “limited features”. Surely this is one area where you don’t want to end up only getting halfway through the lesson!

An amusing review – originally written on Gamespot by Greg Kasavin (now their Executive Editor) but since lost in their archives – which looks at Chess as if it were a computer game. It concludes:

“In light of this game’s boundless oversights and limitations, there is no chance it could ever enjoy the sort of success that makes games like Westwood’s C&C: Red Alert and Blizzard’s Warcraft II the classics they are to this day.”
