An interesting unordered list:

• Phantom withdrawls in the British ATM network during the 1990s.
• Moneyball for american football, excellent article, well worth a read.
• The Epic Legends Of The Hierarchs: The Elemenstor Saga is one of the great internet collaborative creations of our times. Here’s a couple of hilariously good sample pages: Reality and Simulacra and the Penny Arcade Conspiracy Theory

And Paul Golding with the wisest paragraph of the day:

Let the grammarians, linguists and self-appointed language guardians slug it out. We don’t generally think of the change from using “cw” to the Franco-inspired “qu” as a decline, so perhaps writing “gr8″ instead of “great” is not such a big deal either.
