Title quote credited to Robert Benchley
Cloned monkeys?!? Just one step closer to either being ruled by damn, dirty apes or having your own ninja monkey army bent on world domination, which, I guess, would be being ruled by damn, dirty apes.

(Yes, I know monkeys and apes are different.)

Looking for the ultimate in minimalist applications? Look no farther than these Windows 1.0 and 2.0 applications that have been recompiled to run on current versions of Windows!
Laugh if you wish, but some of the apps are actually useful (cardfile and calendar, for example)!

an interesting time line of the year 2007 put together by none other than MTV, and it doesn’t paint a rosy picture for the Music Industry; at least, as far as labels are concerned.
I do believe that artists like Nine Inch Nails, Radio Head and Madonna (Esther, whatever) have seen a glimpse into the future of the industry and are simply the tip of the iceberg of what’s to come.
