Here is an interesting site about the English language: Wordcount.

This is excellent for looking up swearwords. I’m surprised at how low some of them are actually… I’m not the only one looking up swearwords by the way — look at this (Thanks to Alan for pointing this out)!

Duncan is more popular than gentlemen as a whole (as well as Norwich)! Thank you very much, speakers of English!

This is interesting aswell.

Via Norm, who used it to look up words like ‘its’. What a bore!

I’m posting this in every single category to make sure everybody who might need this gets it.

I’ve decided that my categories are a mess, and tomorrow I’m going to attempt to clean them up a bit. I’ll be creating new categories, deleting rubbish old ones, and changing where they go. Some posts might end up in different places. Just a heads up, because it does mean that some feed URLs, and indeed website URLs, will change.

Max Mosley: Have problems with the FIA? Well don’t tell me about it then.

Red Bull sign Coulthard for 2006.

Update: Now the drivers are against Mosley aswell.

Update: Mark Webber gets a potty mouth because he’s so angry with the FIA.

Paul Stoddart is still angry aswell:

The teams have had a gutful of Max. Either he goes or F1 as we know it today will go.

Update: Red Bull joins the other Michelin teams in appealing.

Update: Secrets.

I’m thinking that this isn’t real, but Onlineblog says:

This sounds like a leftover from April 1, but so far, no one seems to think it’s a spoof.

These panties will monitor the location of your daughter, wife or girlfriend 24 hours a day, and can even monitor their heart rate and body temperature.
Based on pioneering research developed by the U.S. military at DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency), we have brought this revolutionary technology, previously only available to the military, to you!

These “panties” can trace the exact location of your woman and send the information, via satellite, to your cell phone, PDA, and PC simultaneously! Use our patented mapping system, pantyMap®, to find the exact location of your loved one 24 hours a day.

Idea: If you can’t trust “your woman” to wear pants without checking up on them it’s probably a lost cause.

In a previous post I likened the PlayStation 3 to a fridge door.

Well it turns out that I was mistaken — it’s actually a grill.
