Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth-Class
(Disney) Pixar’s WALL-E is another success in what has become quite a long line of winning animated feature films.
WALL-E is both visually (can’t go wrong with Pixar animation) and mentally (humans v. humans; humans v. robots; robots v. robots) stimulating.
This timely (see global warming) movie combines robots, space travel, human indulgence, and environmental disaster - all while keeping the attention of kids and adults alike.

Tiger defeated Rocco, the Net
Not only was Tiger Wood’s epic 2008 U.S. Open victory one for the (sporting) ages, it was also the first and only time that golf has threatened the well-being of the interwebs:

The “complete” Web 2.0 directory
Go2Web20.net is the self-proclaimed ‘complete Web 2.0 directory’ - who am I to argue otherwise.
The only biggest gripe I have with this site is the fact that it fails to define Web 2.0 - in other words, how does one know which websites qualify for inclusion?
Regardless, this neat site combines Flash & AJAX to display its ‘comprehensive’ collection of Web 2.0 sites.
iPhone 3G in chocolate?
Apple might not have any plans to add a brown model to its impending iPhone 3G lineup (black or white), but you can still get the iPhone 3G in chocolate…literally!
USBfever is now accepting pre-orders for its ‘IPhone Chocolate Style Silicone case.’ This novel case turns big A’s mobile into a bar of chocolate - providing both protection (for the plastic back of the device) and almost certain mockery from any person lucky enough to catch you using this ridiculous tasty accessory.
