Tech> Stupidity> Copy-Yahoo-Paste-Google

Google promotes IE7. I'm quite ashamed that Google would do this. I don't even care about the competitive position - I only care about the fact that Google is promoting a program in a sub-standard line of programs, and one that is only available on the most miserable platform of all: Windows.

I don't know* what went wrong, but sure enough, looks like Google hosted and promoted a page with code copied from Yahoo!, and an image with the Y! logo just blurred off - not even substituted by a Google logo, but just blurred away. Miserable.

*as always if posting something about Google. See footer.

Stupidity> Cool Spam

I just received an enkindling piece of spam from JOHN UPPER (in all caps, of course).

Good day.
look
I had learned on a number of planets. They made up in
engines of destruction ever manufactured. Over a half
there were no cigars in the ship. Then the service unit


Good golly, sounds like they're screwed, and no over a half cigars left in the entire ship! And whatever happened to the service unit - can't be good at all. What happens next?? [turns spam filters off].
