Global Debt
A nice interactive graphic from the BBC showing who owes what to whom: Eurozone debt web: Who owes what to whom?
It feels a bit depressing for a Friday afternoon :(

Chuck Norris Google Bomb
I came across the Chuck Norris Google Bomb today:
Google won’t search for Chuck Norris because it knows you don’t find Chuck Norris, he finds you.
The URL is http://www.nochucknorris.com/.

Apple’s Location Patent
Somebody brought this article to my attention today: Apple gets killer location services patent.
I bet Apple is really excited about this, and Google is probably the most worried!
In fairness, I am not sure if this patent would remain valid if challenged :o

Pulse on Kindle Fire
I read the Pulse will be included pre-installed on the Kindle Fire! See Pulse Scores Key Spot On Kindle’s Home Shelf; Co-founder Says It May Pass 10M Users This Year and Kindle Fire, Welcome to the Pulse Family!.
That is a great achievement, but then again, Pulse is a great application!

It is very interesting, but almost scary!

Dublin Beta
Dublin Beta is on next Monday evening. It seems like a great idea, although I think that tickets are over-priced!

STD Cards
A family friend recently asked me where was the best place to buy a STD Card! It was obvious from the conversation that she really meant a SD Card, but it was still hilarious!
In fairness, it is actually an appropriate name when you consider how many devices these cards are now inserted into!

Arduino
It is funny that recently two people independently told me about a company called Arduino that manufacture and sell microcontrollers. There is a lot of introductory information in Arduino.
I think that these microcontrollers look like a lot of fun, and if I had more time I would love to try a project :)
