I found a site this evening called Come Clean. It is basically an online confessional. You can choose to leave a confession or to view the confessions of others. I have been watching confessions now for at least 10 minutes, and I have to admit some of them are really funny. The presentation is pretty cool too. It is done in Flash and shows the confessions as being written on the palm of a pair of female hands. Each confessions is then subsequently washed away in a sink. The entire thing is rather interesting.

While “working” this evening/morning I came across the site for Shredding Systems Inc. This company is an industry leader in, well, shredding. They shred pretty much anything. If it needs shredding they will design, build, and implement a system to shred it. We are not just talking paper here, thats amature stuff. If you go here you can watch videos of some of there systems at work shredding a lot of stuff. Sure there is some paper in there, but there is also steel drums, oversized tires, whole computers, oh yeah and refrigerators and washing machines too! If you want to see some heavey duty shredding, check this place out!

I found this site called Colorgenics the other day while surfing the other night at work. It is basically a mood analysis based off color selection. I thought it was kinda neat. Here is what my first results were:

Enough is enough – you feel frustrated and rejected. You are fighting back and the going is tough. It would be just wonderful if you could be left in peace.

You are a leader in every sense of the word. You know where you are going and you know what you need to do in order to get there. You exercise an inherent initiative in overcoming obstacles and difficulties. You either hold, or wish to achieve, a position of authority by means of which full control can be exerted over events.

You honestly believe that your hopes and ideas are realistic, but there seems to be no one around to give you the necessary reassurance and encouragement. You are egocentric. You believe that you are always ‘right’ – well maybe you are but you have a short fuse and are likely to take offense for the slightest reason.

As of late, you have been experiencing untold stress and this is a result of continuous frustration. You haven’t been taking care of all your physical needs and it’s beginning to show. It would seem that you have a need to find someone to whom you can really relate – someone perhaps whose standards are as high as your own. You want to be different – to be individualistic – to stand out from the common herd. Your inherent control of your sensual instincts is restricting your ability to give yourself to open up freely but this being on your own, being lonely, often makes you feel the need to give up some of your strict standards to surrender to the general flow – to be like everyone else; a part of the herd. Deep down you regard such instincts as weaknesses to be overcome. You would like to be loved or admired for yourself alone. You demand recognition and tender loving care.

There is that inherent fear that you may be prevented from attaining the better things in life – those things that you consider essential to your well-being. So you are prepared to try everything to prove to yourself that whatever you do or try will go wrong. This destructive attitude could come under the heading of ‘a self fulfilling prophecy’. This belittling yourself is your method of disguising how hopeless and what a waste of time you feel that everything is. So now turn it about. As you ‘think’, so you are… So ‘imagine’ yourself successful. ‘Pretend’, ‘act it out’ and you may be pleasantly surprised at the outcome.

Its interesting how these things work. Its like subscribing to a astrology site and having your horoscope sent to you everyday, sometimes there on target and sometimes not. The trick is to be vague and then the result could apply to anything.

It appears that Bill Gates is to receive an “honorary knighthood by Britain’s Queen Elizabeth.”

He will become a Knight Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire, an honor that dates back to 1917 … Among the pomp and grandeur of the formal state rooms at [Buckingham Palace], Gates will kneel in front of the sovereign, who will gently tap him on the shoulder with a sword.

Although he will get nighted today, it turns out he will be denyed the honorary title of “Sir” as he is not a Briton nor a citizen of the Commonwealth and “that honor does not extend to other nationalities.” Well I guess money can’t buy everything after all.

I found this site while at work today/last night that uses the google image search to create a montage using images found during a search for an image you specify. The way you use the site is relatively self explainitory. I thought it was kinda neat that someone put this together.

The program uses 20 images that google image search kicks back as search results for the description you enter. You then can press the “create montage” button to have it automatically create a montage using these 20 images. The advanced options allow you to set the grid size and if you wish to use the original high resolution images or the google thumbnail images. Each image in the montage acts as a ling back to the original image, which allows you to see the full image.
