Coffin Counters: Came across this on BoingBoing. A coffin counter for the US/Iraq conflict and a coffin counter for the Irael/Lebanese conflict. Pretty incredible, and not in a good way.

Web 2.0 Parody Logos: This whole Web 2.0 crap is getting out of hand. Here are some humorous versions of current logos done up to look like they're jumping on the 2.0 bandwagon. So shiny!

Pandora In Winamp: Want to add the fantastic Pandora music service to your Winamp Media Library, follow these simple instructions and you can. Unfortunately because Pandora just sends the audio to your sound card it can't be processed by Winamp itself, but this is still very useful.

Death By Caffeine: How much of your favorite caffeinated drink would it take to kill you? Try this handy calculator and find out. 463.70 cans of Coca-Cola Classic + Me = Death.

RSSatellite: Do you use µtorrent? Do you want to use RSS feeds from mininova and find they don't work? Well chuck this PHP script up on a web server and have RSSatellite replace 'tor' with 'get' in the URL and then point µtorrent at the resulting URL. Bingo, working feeds from mininova!

Not content with swearing on an open microphone so the world's press can hear it, President Bush "groped" the German Chancellor at the G8 summit. Although it does appear that she smiled at him, it does also look very inappropriate. What is wrong with the man? Is he completely dumb? You just don't do stuff like that to world leaders!

Copy+: Do you have a Sky+ box? Does the hard drive fill up too quickly? Maybe you're in need of an upgrade... but you don't want to lose your recorded programmes? Copy+ is what you need!

Pentagon Case Study: A pretty comprehensive video showing the crash of Flight 77 into the Pentagon. Compares real footage with a computer simulation.
