Simon Tessier (Pixel Gasoline) updates. Remember him from the 35-sexiest websites pt. 1? yep, that's almost two years ago now :)

New Ezra. Big update at Jonathan Moore's portfolio.

Video: What a horrible time to be blind, indeed! Wait until he gets to the bit about the flickr compilations.

I Chat, therefore I Am. Is profound the right word?

The Portfolio is fresh.

Video: Bad Mixtaping leads to cruel and unusual punishment. Really made me laugh.

Pearls Before Breakfast

I'm living in the worst place on earth, apparently. The video in question. Man, we've got some wicked good P.R. here in Windsor.

How the world really shapes up

Seriously, the guy must've been waiting his whole life for this.

Fifteen Blatantly Untested Hypotheses
February 27, 2006: 7:31 PM



1. The less healthy I try to eat, the better I'll feel.

2. Even though a web user may find that a site with a sans-serif font is more appealing than that with a serif font, they will innately be more drawn towards that with a serif font, and will be unsure as to why.

3. Any company that has to claim to be "world class", isn't.

4. Any movie that has to claim to be "controversial", isn't.

5. Myspace users are twice as likely to be arrested for embarassing things than the general population.

6. The United States aren't so united anymore.

7. The top three medal-winning countries in the Winter Olympics will become the three main sides of the next world war: Canada vs. Germany vs. The States. Canada can only hope to win if the final decisive battle is played out on a curling rink.

8. The more frequently a person looks at themselves in a mirror throughout the day, the more likely they are to commit a hate crime.

9. The amount of time that a person spends watching reality television is inversely proportional to the amount of knowledge that person can be said to have.

10. The next person to remind me about The Bachelor's season finale tonight is going to get a swift kick in the ass.

11. Down and Out is In.

12. By the year 2010, Cultural Identify will be indistinguishable from the term Commercial Identity.

13. In all spheres of national politics in the world's G8 countries, elected leaders will not be reelected if they're still in their first term, otherwise, the next elected leaders will only last one term.

14. By the year 2010, philosophy graduates the world over will be a more valuable commodity than engineers.

15. From this point forward, the population of the world will continue to grow at an alarming rate, but the overall level of knowledge will remain a constant.

Ragarding serifs vs. sans... I've always preferred the latter.

The more important factor between the two sites, in my mind, is the line spacing. There's never enough white space on webpages (my own included).

Yeah who cares about the difference between serif and sans-serif? Also, #9 IS true! And IS tested, just look at VH1.

Just noticed, the capitalization on the "tags" you have on your three sidebars is defs not standardized.
