Diversions

The work is stacking up here at Wordy World, so I’ve decided to entertain you simply by linking to cool stuff.  (This classic web log approach seems to work well for Cory Doctorow and his friends.)

Item #1 features the belated release of NASA’s (and the world’s) first ultra-thin solar sail.

Item #2 tells you why you shouldn’t play “Wolf Pack” with a bunch of six-year-olds.

Item #3 tells you why life is sweet right now for Mark Twain impersonators.

And here’s Item #4, the brilliant video prank played on Belgium’s phone company by a group of people fed up with its poor customer service.
