   Are you watch Sarah Palin’s TV show? I saw the trailer & wtf? -__- She’s like, “This is so much better than being in politics.” It’s like she’s doing this just because she is losser. o.O What do you think? Do you believe she can be the next american presiden? ..

   Wende im Prozeß gegen Jörg Kachelmann. Die des Publikumslieblings haben ihr Mandat niederlegt. Der Prozeß in Mannheim soll dennoch planmäßig fortgesetzt werden. Es werde keinen Antrag auf Aussetzung des Prozesses geben, fügte Rechtsanwalt Ralf Hoecker hinzu. Der neue Strafverteidiger Johann Schwenn (Hamburg) und die seit Verfahrensbeginn anwesende Pflichtverteidigerin Andrea Combé werden top vorbereitet sein, sagte er weiter.

   Thanks

   Hi, you should check out http://www.voteonwikileaks.com. It’s sort of like a crowdsourced collection of arguments against Wikileaks. Considering you’re a blogger, i think you’d find it to be an interesting read

   It appears as though Julian Assange will at least be out on bail any minute but what about Bradley Manning? Solitary confinement for seven months so far without being convicted of anything, without a trial, even. That’s bad!

    is it true that it is not possible to use that sky thing with verizon?

Sorry, some are in German ;)

What’s so funny about them you ask? Well, the do contain actual content (even if not always matching to the posts they were attached to), they look relevant to the time they were posted and still are spam: the links in the “homepage” field of the comment led to spamsites. Numbers 9 and 10 even funnier: they are exact copies of already present comments to the same post.

And oh, I think WikiLeaks should leak a cable about downloading stuff from WikiLeaks ;)

So David Watson and Michal Čihař are doing Project 52 this year? Well, lemme in ;)

Actually, me and some friends were doing so the last year already and we will to continue this year too. We’re calling it “wir knipsen!” which translates into English as “we snap!”.

This week my contributions look like this:

Yepp, these are three images as these are our rules: three pictures every week :)

Hope you enjoy them and don’t forget to have a look at the other pictures at wirknipsen.de.

Ihr habt bestimmt alle die neue “50 Jahre Saturn” Werbung an Haltestellen gesehen, oder? Aber habt ihr auch genau hingeguckt?

Immer noch nicht? Achtet mal auf die linke Hand/linken Arm von dem Typen. Der Zeigefinger ist super scharf, der Ring aufm Ringfinger nicht mehr und ab der Schulter wieder. Und ich dachte immer man kann immer nur auf einen Punkt fokusieren und nicht auf zwei die locker n halben Meter von einander entfernt sind…

Aber vielleicht funktionieren Linsen aufm Saturn ja anders oder die sind kaputt seit sie mal den Bill und den Alice fuer die Fernsehwerbung aufnehmen mussten ;)

I use Delicious from time to time to save bookmarks and search for stuff I can’t remember where I found it. It was sad to read rumors that Yahoo! will shut it down, but that’s not the point here now.

In the last months I noticed some strange behavior with their site: when surfing a page of a bookmark, you see the total number of people who have bookmarked that particular link and that number started to jump from view to view. First loaded you see a total of 183 bookmarks, 10 minutes later it’s 265 bookmarks, and then 183 again. What’s going on there? I guess that is some inconsistency between their datacentres or something, but I’m not sure (and I am sure that this should not happen!).

Today I noticed another funny thing: bookmarks without an owner:

Again, not sure what is happening here. Did the user delete his account? Delicious says all bookmarks will be gone when deleting, so this should be something different, but again, I have no clue.

I fear I will have to search a new home for my bookmarks. Any (open-source) social bookmarking service out there worth a try?
