MTV enters the IT era.
MTV reported that for December 2007 page impressions for its site mtv.co.uk were up 75% compared to December 2006, while there was also a 771% increase in the number of clips viewed during that time. It also found that the average time people spent on its site is up by nearly 50% last year.Could it be, MTV has decided to make a site you can actually use? (I would love to have answered yes, but I just cant.)

Snailmail
WARSAW (Reuters) - It’s official. Postal delivery is as slow as snails, at least in Poland.
An IT worker, after receiving a letter on January 3 that was sent on December 20 as priority mail, calculated that a snail would have made it even faster to his home than the letter.
Daily Gazeta Wyborcza said Michal Szybalski calculated that it took 294 hours for the letter to arrive at his home. He also said the distance between his home and the sender was 11.1 kilometers.
Given the distance and the time, the speed of the letter was 0.03775 kilometers per hour. Szybalski calculated that a garden snail travels at around 0.048 kilometers per hour.
-Will you carbonate the Fanta? -No!
Fanta still is set to hit the stores in the UK next month. For those of you who wonders if even will be possible to drink the non carbonated Fanta, I recommend a trip to Sweden. The old brand and drink "MER" ("more") will prolly be the closest thing to it. Oh, and its owned by the Swedish division of coka cola.

How the biohazard symbol came to be
This interesting article was posted on bold today. It's an article by Charles Baldwin, the creator of the Biohazard symbol.
One of the two only flying machines
The British Flying Machine had a wonderful chorus saying "I'm still waiting on the shores of nowhere, waiting for my life to begin, baby I'm a looser" (Later found in a much less wonderful recording by the Foundations.)
I got a vinyl record player for my birthday and realized how ironically beautiful the other tracks on their record can be.
The only recording I could find on youtube is one by Helen Shapiro:
The only Flying Machine recording I could find on youtube was "Smile a little smile for me".
The user providing the video below has some wonderful old musicvideos online.

So, you want to change the world?
I was feeling a little bit blue and bored, trying to make my plans match with a speech held by David Carson in Stockholm soon. I googled the phrase "I want to change the world" and got only 86 600 hits. Apparently this is the way to do it.
