Daily links: 17th August
Usual weekday links.
Elements - warning: do not open this if you have a history of spending too much time playing Magic.
"James my mate fancies u x" - one hell of an anti-texting/driving advert.
ControlPad - windows application that allows you to launch stuff from the numberpad. Quite useful, especially as you can send a number of commands at once.
Creating a being of pure evil - sometimes, I wish scientists had to watch a number of films relating to their area and were asked not to follow the plots in everyday life.
Burning Man and rights - Burning Man have a license for photographers that restricts their rights to their photographs, but it's well reasoned out as to why. Read the link to see how.
Root Bridges in India - how some areas on India have 500 living bridges. Amazing photos.
World Shipping Map - reminded of this by the piracy episode with the Russian ship. Strangely fascinating.
