Following a thread on Webmaster-Talk about similarities between people/things, I decided to have a look around for any similarities I could find between people (and creatures!).
I discovered:
To me, the resemblance is uncanny. Is the USA being led by a primate?

OK, so for starters, I haven’t kept to the category name, “bi-weekly web sites” at all… I think the last time I posted to this was about 2 months ago.
This is besides the point anyway. I found a really cool blog, by a Webmaster-Talk member, called Lightning Shock. The guy (James) makes a lot of sense, particularly with posts like 100 reasons Digital Point sucks” and “Social Networks are Communities, not self promotion manipulation tools“.
The blog is well worth a read and highly recommended - now I’ve found it, I hope to be popping back there regularly

I was told once that on average, we use 1% of our brains - that seems ridiculous now I’ve read this BBC News article saying that the belief we use on 10% of our brains is untrue - how could I have believed we use 1%?!
Anyway, the article follows a recent study to discover the truths behind a number of medical myths. These include the myth that reading in poor light damages eyesight (which seems a bit logical it has to be said) and that hair and nails grow after death (who would even be watching then?!). Well worth a read.

Inactivity - I’ll start off by apologizing for the long period of inactivity since my previous post. This is mostly due to a lack of enthusiasm to do anything worthwhile, serious boredom, a hectic few weeks at college and the transition to a new server for my hosting company. Anyway, I hope I’ll be able to blog a bit more now as college winds down.
Programming - I’ve been busy doing a bit of programming recently at college for the course. We’ve focused on Visual Basic.NET since it’s supposedly one of the easiest languages to learn and fairly easy to code in (since you don’t need to focus on hand-coding the GUI). (more…)
