Ok, here's an awesome new site I discovered, Antipop. A guy I met at lunch today writes for it, which I initially started talking to because he was the first person I've ever seen wear a shirt from ThinkGeek. Check it out, especially if you like rants on mindless subjects much like this website is.

Looks like Napster is even deader since a judge ruled that 99%+ filtering of copyrighted songs isn't good enough. So it looks like they'll continue to be shut down for the fore-see-able future. But the real question is, does anyone really care about Napster anymore?

Scientists have developed a new type of atomic clock that is up to 1,000 times more accurate than today's best atomic clocks. It can produce 1 quadrillion "ticks" per second, which, needless to say, is a heck of a lot of ticks. And of course you can always use time.gov to find out the "official" time according to the United States government.
