From the monthly archives:
My current favorite thing on the Web is the Random Personal Picture Finder.
Actually, considering the guy who runs it name-checked me on the front page, it’s probably my favorite thing of ALL TIME on the Web.
I have it archived, for anyone who gives a damn enough to go see. You’ll note, however, that the archived page doesn’t really “work.” I did that on purpose. If you want to see random images, use the original site, dammit!
Warren Ellis posted a link to this place on his forum today: www.gigposters.com. Very cool.

I really need to update this thing. Pending, pending.
Andrew Sullivan, journalist for the London Times, comments on Web logs.
The pioneer - back in 1994 - was one Justin Hall whose “Links From the Underground” blog detailed, among other things, his passion for sex and drugs. But since then, the genre has evolved into a mish-mash of links to other stories on the web, personal comments on the news, spirited debates between various pundits, book discussion groups, and much else. As the Far Eastern Economic Review noted recently, “Weblogs are where the real action is. They are the creation of individuals, usually musings on national, local or personal events, links to interesting articles, a few lines of comment or discussion collected and presented by one person. Weblogs are a milestone in the short history of the Internet.”

My song of the day: Stone Roses, “I Am the Resurrection“

It’s not the smell in here that gets to me it’s the lights
I hate the shadows that they cast,
and the sound of clinking bottles is the one sure thing
I’ll always drag with me from my past
I think I’ll find a pair of eyes tonight, to fall into
and maybe strike a deal
Your body for my soul, fair swap
’cause cheap is how I feel.
–’Cause Cheap Is How I Feel, Cowboy Junkies
