Faceworthy

Do you love the reflection you’re greeted with each morning in the bathroom mirror? If so, you’re sure to enjoy FaceWorthy, the social networking site for narcissists.

Having browsed the site for a few minutes, it looks like they’re not short on onanists too…

Google Lively

10th July

2008

Lively, currently in beta, is Google’s answer to Second Life. The downloadable application allows you to create rooms, decorate them to your liking, then make and invite friends over. Of course, you’re far better off actually doing these things in real life, but if you have poor personal hygiene and/or no friends you’re sure to find it very rewarding.

Downing Street embraces YouTube

29th May

2008

The official Downing Street YouTube Channel encourages visitors to post video questions to the Prime Minister. Big Gordon has promised on his nan’s eyes that he’ll respond to the most popular questions at the end of June.

I’d like to ask him why he married Geoff Capes…

eBay not so positive

16th May

2008

As expected, the auction giant has turned the feedback system on it’s head. eBay sellers are no longer permitted to leave negative or neutral feedback.

I’d completely forgotten that this change was imminent – I was reminded by this alarming prompt after logging into my eBay account:

Dave Ebay, founder of the auction beastgorilla, was recently quoted as saying:

“Bollocks to sellers. Damn them all to hell! They can suck a faecal cigar from my ass!”

Well, there you have it.

Supermundane updates

14th April

2008

The Supermundane website has been updated with much niceness. It’s jolly nice – my digital niceometer is registering a solid 8.5. High fives to Anorak for the tip-off.

A life for sale

17th March

2008

A man called Ian is selling his life -literally all of it- on ebay, after having split from his wife.
For your bid you get a lovely house near Perth, Australia, a car, a motorbike, skydiving kit, jet-ski, job all of his friends and much more!

Auntie smells of Web 2.0

27th February

2008

The new BBC homepage, launched today, allows users to customise their experience by selecting content and creating garish colour schemes. It’s hardly a new idea, but it’s well implemented, and if nothing else, it’s worth the admission fee for the kitsch analogue clock displayed in the header.

Please note – I despise the term Web 2.0, but as there’s no recognised alternative term that I can think of, I will continue to use it under duress.

Yes Bar Berlin

26th February

2008

This dude… he’s such… well… a dude!

The proprietor of the Yes Bar in Berlin has taken narcissism to a new level with this panoramic website, showing his bar filled with identikit punters, all of whom look suspiciously like him. Genius! Give that man a cigar and a vigorous handshake, he rocks my world more than Rocky’s I to VI.

Thanks for the Memory, Crucial

21st February

2008

Ordering RAM is a tedious task, on a par with washing the dishes or peeling a banana for a man with no hands. So, when making an order with Crucial yesterday, upon seeing the obligatory box “Enter any special shipping and handling instructions here”, I asked them for a hand-written poem. As you do…

This morning, I received the following via email:

Good morning Milan,

Sorry can not oblige with a hand written poem so

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Sugar is sweet
and so are you.

Have a nice day

Kindest regards

Linda

Nice one! Clearly, they’re even more crucial than Delbert Wilkins. High fives and back slaps to Linda (surname withheld because the Internet is a scary place at the best of times).

Domino’s takes UGC to a new level

6th February

2008

Domino’s “Big Fantastic Deal” is a cracking idea! Users can build their own custom pizza, and, when happy with it, proceed to name their creation and submit it to the BFD gallery for other users to purchase.

I’m sure they’ll have a robust swear filter in place, but there must be countless opportunities for ordering dubiously named pizzas. Anyone for a slice of “Grandpa’s Creamy Laminate?”
