Amazing World

Sometimes when I'm reading the news I'm overwhelmed by how interesting the world is... or how wierd it can get.

Interesting:

The top 125 questions facing scientists today.

High schools moving to laptops as opposed to textboooks. I thought this revolution would have already happened by now, unfortuneatly it's still taking some time to gain momentum.

How to start-up a restaurant from scratch.

Weird:

Cereality, a fest food style restaurant specializing in... cereal.

Funny and weird comeback on the critisism of the recent Channel 9 Steve Ballmer interview, especially since I just watched it about 10 minutes before finding this link. The best part about that interview was when Ballmer talks about corporate blogs and how he trusts his employees: "We trust our people to represent our company, that's what they're paid to do... you don't run any more risk letting somebody express themselves in a blog than you do letting them go out and see a customer on their own anyways".

This guy is self proclaimed weird:



Update: After thinking about it, I guess I'm pretty weird too:



Of course skating around in a circle could be counted as weird, but man was that fun!
