No longer will the “we have no details” excuse work at work. And a 500MB cap doesn’t sound like “enabling customers to fully embrace the mobile Internet” to me.

They should get celebrity umpires at Wimbledon. People with nice voices, like Donald Sutherland and Sean Connery, would be great. (via my Twitter)

I was watching the “Space Walk” clip again on YouTube, and it seems that the fact that no sound can be heard in space has once again been ignored. [End sarcasm]

Just heard a song that is definitely on my iPhone but can’t remember what it’s called. I’m looking for something that goes like “I can’t believe I’m this far away from home”. (via my Twitter)

It doesn’t matter what the traffic light says. If there’s a sufficient mass of cars/pedestrian, one of them will always win.

A Leaving Poem
Time flew. The taxi came too soon. The train sped me to London, The Tube took me to Heathrow. Damn those DIY check-ins for shortening the queue, and for once why can’t the security checks be more minute? Usually the plane’s at gate 36, but this time it’s at gate 3. In no time boarding begins, and in no time everyone’s on board. Damn the air traffic controllers, they’re too...

Real racing in the virtual world →
I would love to get one of this on Xbox 360 or Mac. Wii would be okay as well, I guess. Wonder how this would work on iPhone via 3G… Now that’s groundbreaking. Imagine this though: use this to make a free-roaming live broadcast, à la the Halo 3 Theatre. Viewers can just fly around the track and view the race at whatever angle they like. That would be awesome.

I got the Linktacular medal once before in a social game, but that’s it. I dunno, I’m torn on this. On the one hand, I really want to get a Linktacular medal during a ranked game, but on the other I want it to be special when I do. If too many people have it, what’s the point? It’ll be too common… And isn’t there an achievement related to Linktacular? (I might...
