The Week In Review

The Week in Review: too big to fit in your puny earth trucks! This week, zombies, Russians, crates, anime and ugly, ugly GIFS.

It's Hidden in the Code!

Before Facebook let even the computer-illiterate amongst us post our every thought on the internet, Geocities let at least some of us have our very own webpages. It's hard to talk about Geocities without sounding like a hoary old wizard, but it felt like the future, albeit a future filled with low-resolution animated GIFs and so the news of its passing is sad indeed. Of course it's taken some seriously bad fiction I wrote when I was a much younger man with it, so it's not all bad. Still, I shall pour a 40 on the kerb for my fallen brother. Goodbye Geocities, you will be missed... sort of. (link [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/95716-GeoCities-Closes-Today])

Mild? I live in Australia, and some of the things they decide to do makes no sense
