Can plug-in hybrids ride to America’s rescue? | csmonitor.com: Since 78 percent of American commuters drive 40 miles or less each day, a plug-in driver might need only to fill up his tank with gasoline a half-dozen times a year. It’s a game-changing concept that’s won over many energy-security hawks and even environmentalists who had been married to futuristic fuel-cell vehicles, but now see plug-ins as a here-and-now way to fight global warming as well as freeing the US from imported oil.

Musicovery : interactive webRadio:

With the ability to filter tracks by genre, time peroid, mood, and how danceable it is, Musicovery is a unique and oddly satisfying streaming music site.

I personally perfer this over Pandora because of it’s ability to filter by time peroid and to choose obscure tracks rather than having to pick a specific artist or genre you want tracks similar to.

zacharyr:

“Like a lot of American kids, I read [Lord of the Flies] in school. Presumably it was not a coincidence. Presumably someone wanted to point out to us that we were savages, and that we had made ourselves a cruel and stupid world. This was too subtle for me. While the book seemed entirely believable, I didn’t get the additional message. I wish they had just told us outright that we were savages and our world was stupid.”

-Paul Graham, Why Nerds are Unpopular

I like how this essay gets off to an awkward start and then explodes with insight.

Holy crap. I have to remember to forward this to my brother’s kids.
