Sorry for the lack of updates. A few weeks ago, I won a lot of 20 tapes off eBay, and I’m about halfway done backing them up to my computer, holding the seller off on a rating. So far all work and great music. The tapes are various obscure and popular 80s pop-metal and pop-rock [...]

From The Telegraph: British film archivists yesterday have released footage which apparently shows the world’s first mobile phone being used – in 1922. They…attach a wire from the device onto a fire hydrant before erecting an umbrella which has been converted into an aerial. Read the article and watch the black-and-white silent video. In other [...]

Some commenters have been asking whether or not the site can be quoted or reproduced. I have been putting off deciding this – I will not use the popular Creative Commons licenses because later versions include a sneak GPL-style provision allowing relicensing under “compatible licenses” approved by Creative Commons (the organization) as “in the spirit” [...]

These quizzes have been around for ages, but I haven’t been to BBSpot since way before xcopfly.com came into existence. So I took a bunch of these quizzes again. Which OS are You? Which File Extension are You? How White and Nerdy Are You? Which Caffeinated Beverage [...]
