Here’s a group of photos that you can use as wallpapers on your computer. There’s also 800×600 (the images on this site are only 450 pixels wide) sizes if you just want to keep some nice photos. Go to the Lifehacker link below for full sizes.

Note: The “Full Size” link directly under the picture only shows you the sample image we uploaded for this gallery. You need to click on the name of the particular wallpaper in the right hand column to access the full range of sizes at the source site.

I found these on Lifehacker.

Thanks to John for sending this to me. This a terrific site that has been featured in newspapers, and on TV and radio. Basically, this guy has created a free school, using you tube videos, to teach a huge number of courses. Take a look and maybe learn something today.

Here’s an article from the San Francisco Chronicle from last December. It’s a big file, so it may take a minute to load.

What your sign says says a lot about you.

Plenty more here.

The Mariana Trench To Scale [Pic]. It`s the deepest part of the world`s ocean and the lowest elevation of the surface of the Earth. Yeah, it`s that deep.

I found this on I Am Bored. Go there to see the high resolution photo. Via Geekologie.

It’s called Chat Roulette and here’s how it works. Via FIPS.

It’s a new online service created 3 mos ago by some Russian 17-year-old, that allows you to immediately start videochatting with strangers. You basically go to the site, click “play” and BOOM: you’re staring at a complete stranger somewhere in the world (and/or a complete stranger’s dick). As you can imagine, there is allegedly some pretty freaky deaky shit that goes down on chatrouelette, but also its supposed to be weirdly addictive. If you don’t want to chat with whomever pops up (or want to leave the chat at any point during your convo) you can click a button, spin the virtual roulette wheel, and get hooked up with someone else.

Personally, I’m afraid to try chatroulette, but as I continue to read about it EVERYWHERE, my curiosity is growing (sidenote: wouldn’t it be cool if you could *just* chat with people in Brooklyn? Then I’d totally be down).

Here’s one guy’s video report on his experience. WARNING: It’s probably offensive to somebody everybody, but not to me.
