Not sure why I should go on, because the logo says it all—
Site Hoppin’ literally hops sites via simulation slideshow to enable the bored net surfer to cradle a cool beer in his or her hand and wait for something interesting to slither by.

…but the Tree of Life Project is probably the coolest thing to come around in some time.
And I say biter because, not that anyone noticed but it’s the head story on UT’s homepage.
Basically it’s the biggest and most complete biology encyclopedia, with over 9,000 biologists contributing. The links are placed hierarchically in “the form of [...]

The new video from Justice is a visual feast created by graphic genius, and previous director of Kanye’s “Good Life” and the French house duo’s 2007 smash “D.A.N.C.E., So-Me.
The logos are recognizable, but does anyone know what this song is about?

If you remember correctly, Wikipedia and I got into a little spat because it took down the picture of my dimple on the “dimple” article page. If you don’t remember that, well, they did.
