Random Web Link Roundup

Hi folks...I originally wrote this in an e-mail to some folks here:

"Here are some Web links of interest that I don't know yet if I'm
going

to be able to use, but that you might find interesting." 



Then, later: "Hrm,
I guess this is a pretty bloggy format, so I guess I will post it. But you can
use it too."


Anyway, here you go:



* milliondollarhomepage.com

- Brit uni (as in university) student selling pixels
on this page at $1

per pixel (10x10, or 100 pixel mininum); he's already cleared over

$200K. (He has a blog, too.)



* www.HappyNews.com -
Nothing but shiny, happy news for people who can't
deal with reality. Read about it in Gawker, who could barely stop gagging. Not
sure if this is a put-on or not.



* www.ps260.com/molly/SHINING%20FINAL.mov
- Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining'

(you know, "Redrum! Redrum!") remixed into a movie trailer for a

parenting comedy. It's a 9-megabyte movie
download...here is a mirror

site: http://waxy.org/random/video/shining_redux.mov
-- (http://waxy.org/links is where I read
about it.)



* www.computerworld.com/blogs/node/1043


- "You really know you're a techno-geezer when..." Computerworld

columnist Robert Mitchell blogs about how different we are from young

folks who only know a world with the Web, cell phones and IMs. (Hey, you

kids....get offa my lawn!)



* www.boingboing.net/2005/09/29/thirty_buck_toy_amp_.html
- Boing-Boing entry about a $30 amplifier that kicks
the snot out of amps 10 times the price.

If you
see these links anywhere else on AOL...well, you can say that you saw
it here first. Thanks. -- Joe

The Netgirl posted the HappyNews site yesterday! Given all the gloomy news with Iraq and the Hurricanes, happy news goes a long way.
