http://www.keepthelightson.net/tiki/tiki-index.php; A wiki & bbs devoted to eventually creating the definitive appropriate technology DIY manual. Our goal is to document ever step of the 21st century industrial tool chain starting from scratch, but for v1.0 we will be focusing on renewable energy systems. If there is only one book you'll want to have when stranded on a deserted island, it will be this one.

КОМИКСОЛЁТ, сетевой журнал комиксов: Apr 19, 2004 4:24pm 2 reviews comics
http://www.comics.aha.ru/; A Russian-language comic-book webzine named "Komiksalyet", which roughly translates into "Comixoplane" or something. They have an English version of the website too apparently. The Russian part is Cyrillic Windows encoding on IE. Anyway, the quality of the art is excellent, though the site is slow. They have a freaky, freaky comic strip about Hitler fighting Stalin one-on-one using their superpowers. I *think* it's supposed to be satire and allegory, but who knows.

http://www.friendster.com/; DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS SITE. USE TRIBE.NET INSTEAD!!

I take back my earlier glowing review of this site. They are control freak, humourless fascists. For the following reason:

1. Excessive zeal in deleting ANY photo that departs even slightly from their overbearing rules, no matter how innocent and artistic the departure may be.

2. Excessive zeal in deleting group accounts, concept accounts, fake celebrity accounts... any account that isn't a single, individual person under a single individual name.

3. No feature for creating interest group accounts.

4. Sometimes arbitrarily deleting accounts or pictures with no explanation or warning either to the owner of the account or that individual's friends.

5. Complete disregard for feedback from their users.

http://cluster.tribe.net/tribe/servlet/template/; This is awesome! The non-fascist replacement for Friendster. If you're on Friendster migrate here and tell everyone you know on there to migrate too. This site allows groups.

http://arsware.org/; Great free apps and utils, many for Windows. Stuff you'd think Windows would do to begin with because it's an obvious thing users would want.

Jun 23, 2003 2:20am: It's 4AM. I have what's essentially a mini-review on mitochondrial Complex I due tomorrow. I have dandruff and racoon eyes. 50% of my fatigue is caused by the stress of having a deadline in the first place, albeit a postponed headline. I know when my qualifying exam is going to be now... it will be on August 12th.

Jun 3, 2003 1:00pm: Let's hear it for the StumbleUpon admins... they implemented comment editing! Yay!

And my laptop is completely back to normal, after using Norton Utilities for the third time in my life, and having it actually do something helpful for the first time in my life.
