Free Speech Is Free (I Don’t Care What It Says) 

Fighting Neo-Nazis and the Future of Free Expression
I am deeply disturbed by this knee jerk blocking. The EFF make some great points but even they seem afraid of offending by mentioning. Never would I agree with these opinions, but as Voltaire never said, you can say them.

The World Wide Web Project

A little website from 25-year ago

Those pages are still readable today, in a modern browser, even if some of the markup mentioned has been deprecated a long time (backwards compatibility is important folks). Interesting to note the disparity between single and double clicking of links within the various browsers too. Of course, by the time I first interacted with a browser (in September 1995 if not slightly earlier) we had graphics and everything!

Google Maps Gallery

Surprised more hasn’t been made of the Google Maps Gallery. Lots of nice stuff there, including a load of historic maps.

Vitamin Overload

…that most beguiling of all logical falsehoods — if a little is good, then more must be better

Remember, that recommended allowance means a limit to more as well as less.
