[23:47] <jham> Just the other day jparks was here and asked me what my password was and I gave him the finger. That totally made the Vaio worth while

Ugh. This is what the Slashdot homepage looked like this morning:

Fig. 1.   Advertisements for nerds; stuff you can buy.

I lamed out and skipped Beer-Bike again this year. In my defense, I am attempting to get a conference paper out in three weeks, but the main reason I don’t go is that I don’t really know anybody associated with the event anymore, so it’s kind of a depressing thing to go to. It’s not Beer-Bike that I remember—full of friends, and excitement, and water balloons.

That’s why it’s so much fun to flip through all the photos tagged “beerbike” over on Flickr: These were taken from the perspective of current undergraduates, so that energy is present in every frame. I’m collecting Beer-Bike sets over on beerbike.com, to keep track of all the users who have created photo rolls out of their raceday photos. If you spot any others, let me know, and I’ll add ‘em.

OK, NYT, you have both Times and Georgia on your redesigned pages (not to mention some pre-rendered headlines set in Times). So you need to choose a serif typeface. One. Right now.
(End of the World + Mario Twins) × Energy BBDO = coolbreathpower.com. Another Internet meme co-opted by advertisers. Suggestions for also-ran ad firms not yet on the bandwagon: be sure to hire Group X for your v.o.
