What does Google think about you?
One of the better google-mania sites out there: googlism, For any word (and you tell if it's a where, who, when or what) the googlism engine tells what net pages tend to say about it.
The site is informative
australia is not sweden
questionable
jesus is an anarchist
helpful
moon is not to be looked at when game has been shot
weird
george bush is pregnant
artistic
picasso is an elderly cat with clipped ears
prophetic, too
secular blasphemy is blogging about blogging
And thus we spent another few minutes.
PS: It says that "bergen is within easy reach" so now you know, you-know-who.

US plan to bug Security Council: followup
Kriselda at different strings also runs the story about the leaked NSA memo in the Observer.
She points out something I had not noticed myself: the alleged memo uses British spelling (e.g , favourable, emphasise) which I would consider unlikely in a memo from a US NSA official. There is, I guess, the chance that some over-eager editor has run it through a British spell check or that there is some other natural explanation, but this fact does give room for pause. She also points me to a metafilter discussion about the case.
If it is a fraud, it is a major scandal. Double-cross, anyone?

Virtual Occoquan, the postmodern edition
A new edition of the Occoquan Enquirer is out, with the best of this week in Salon blogging. It includes the full exchange of the diablogue about postmodernism which I started (accidentally; I swear!) by poking fun at pomo writing.
And, yeah, it also includes my article on "earworms", songs we can't get out our heads. It must have been that picture of Kylie...
Along with lots of brilliant contributions by all the usual suspects.
