Quotes unquoted
From Evil Avatar’s PS2 GotY (Goat of the Yard) thread, check the first post: “Shadow of the Colossus – Picked it up 2 days ago and I can’t put it down.” Keep forgetting if this is about Game of the Year, or Game of the second.

From the Borowitz Report: “Albert Einstein did not devise the theory of relativity as originally thought but was the lead singer of the Miami Sound Machine, according to a new biography published online today by Wikipedia.” I think I’ve said what I think of the whole Wikipedia fiasco elsewhere, but it’s always good to make fun of them, no?

Blogging for Human Beings
Three Ubuntu blogs I happened upon during recent days. No guarantees of quality though.
Ubuntu Blog. Very neat WordPress theme, lots of tips and GNU/Linux tricks. Very like.
The Fridge. This one’s sits under Ubuntu’s own domain, but doesn’t seem to be officially affiliated with them. Kinda uglysh design (at least on Opera), but lots of nice articles, mostly about community activities and suchlike.
Ubuntu Linux Blog of ralph. Kinda says it all, doesn’t it? More tips and recipes, along with some info about working with Dapper Drake, the next version.
While at the subject, All About Linux is a blog about GNU/Linux (where does he gets those lines?), with the usual informative information.
And Linux Shortcuts and Commands offers a huge load of those magic keyboard combination guaranteed to give you that GNU/Linux guru look.
