Linkblog!

I have precious little space in my head to spare for blogging today, so I think I’ll clean out my ‘toblog’ tag on del.icio.us.

Ever wondered what Geoffrey Chaucer would write about if he had access to the interweb? Wonder no more—he hath a blog. It’s only infrequently updated, but some overeducated person has clearly put a good deal of thought into this. The best part? It includes the line “I WOLDE I KNEWE HOW OF THEE I MIGHT BE QUITTEN!”

From McSweeney’s, An Open Letter to My Ability to Lose Interest in Things Easily. Just plain clever. I’ve often thought of submitting something to McSweeney’s. Probably a list. I’m a fan of lists, and some of the lists they publish are unfunny and/or poorly-realized. (On the other hand, many others are crazy hilarious.) I can so do better.

And this? I have no words, except that I want it. Imagine all the applications it could have (they’ve already done some of the imagining for you).

Is it really 3:20? Christ. Nighttime runs differently than daytime, I swear. I have a Latin midterm in 7.5 hours. Woo.

    I’ve seen something like that last link before, but it’s always amazing to see what new stuff people have decided to do with it. This is why touchscreens (well, the high quality ones, at least) are frickin’ awesome.
