    This is a very brief history of operating system scroll bars. It's not inclusive though, because I don't even see the one I'm using on there. Regardless, they've really come a long way, haven't they? SPOILER: Nope. Thanks to Deacon, who, based on his email, is apparently VE... / Continue →

    This is a Coke billboard in the Philippines touting the company's greenliness. How earth-friendly is Coke besides the billboard? I have no clue. Probably not very. Whenever I have to guess about something like this I always err on the side of "companies really don't give a ... / Continue →

    Remember last Friday when Google featured a playable Pac-Man demo on its homepage to celebrate the game's 30th anniversary? Turns out that shit seriously put the hurt on work productivity. Suck it, the man! The average person spends about 4.5 active minutes on Google.com eac... / Continue →

    'I'm on a Mac' is a music video spoofing -- you'll never guess -- The Lonely Island's, 'I'm on a Boat'. It was good and watching it I surprisingly didn't want to jam the business end of an umbrella in my eyes and ears. So, yeah, I guess that's an endorsement. Corporate Ameri... / Continue →
