These are on youtube but it’s a pain in the ass to find all the parts and whatever. Hopefully this makes your viewing more pleasurable. I may post comments later, and I’ll continue to post episodes (as I watch them, though).
An interesting step in the process of search engine evolution is upon us. Microsoft was the first major search engine to start taking direct input as a way to optimize their search results. SearchWiki is sort of the same idea but it’s only applicable on the personal level. This is a good step, but I think that more needs to be done; for example, I’d like to be able to easily filter out all “.info” domains from my searches, as sites on that top level domain are basically always spam.
Of course with so many spammers out there I don’t think that Google could have realistically been able to choose user input but it might have been able to be considered on some level. Something like PR but for users, in which users who browse more and who have been members of Google for a longer period of time would have more weight in their rankings, and of course users would be able to view rankings unaffected by user ratings (or choose groups with which to accept user rankings from).
Seriously, barring the fact that a comment such as “we’re the best in the world” is going to be looked down upon from basically anybody from another country, this song is just not good:
Oh well, at least it beats my country’s national anthem…
Saw this recently, and couldn’t resist posting it. This was the sort of shit that was popular when I was 13-14. I wonder what sort of crazy shit pop culture is going to be showing my kids, because honestly I think this is pretty crazy (although definitely juvenile).
