Round up of some links.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The work of Jack’s Kindness Shop<\/a> – I think his idea of being an animal lover may need some work.<\/p>\n

The Daily Mash on the American healthcare debate<\/a> – Dr Tom Logan, head of public health at the Institute for Studies, said: “The key difference between the United States and Britain is that we treat poor people rather than leaving them to die in a skip.”<\/p>\n

Who ya gonna call?<\/a> – Don’t cross the streams.<\/p>\n

Israel fights off Swine Flu<\/a> – obviously where the UK is going wrong.<\/p>\n

Pirate Party UK<\/a> – single issue politics. Almost certainly won’t get anywhere without proportional representation, but it’s an interesting development.<\/p>\n

Rescue Robot in Japan<\/a> – pretty cool way to avoid sending firefighters into dangerous situations, but I’d still worry about someone getting an order wrong and shipping one of these<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Engadget review Windows 7<\/a> – pretty positive.<\/p>\n

Lifehacker go over Digsby<\/a> – possibly the most bundled crap around in one package from the sound of it.<\/p>\n

Slate on why Twitter can’t last as Twitter alone<\/a> – needs to distribute from one company to many. Could be something that works with Wave?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
