If you like William S Burroughs, you probably know that he would sometimes take a razorblade to pages of written text and physically make edits that resulted in new words and stream of consciousness concepts. If you don’t like William S Burroughs, you probably just learned why. Website Language Is A Virus (name taken from a Burroughs quote) is an index of on-line word hack toys so that you may get your Beat on, without all the shooting up and shooting your wife and so on. If you like the David Bowie Outside album, David evidently used something much like this when channeling the lyrics… back when the the internet had more art than ads on it.

We’re more about the cheap thrills than the useful information, so we’ll direct your attention the Cynical-C Blog, which is dedicating the day to covering the terrorist bombings in London, and doing a pretty thorough job of it, including this link to a map of London based bloggers indexed by their location relative to the nearest tube station.

It always rings cheap and hollow to pay lip service to the victims of something so terrible from the safety of an ocean away, but we are truly saddened with today’s events, and we extend genuine sympathy to those effected.
Least Wanted is a Flickr member who posts images of old mugshots pinched from all over the last century, many of whom we’re sure would have turned out much better if Angelina Jolie had been there to shepherd them into better lives.

Gawker Media Travel site Gridskipper finally has a stable captain at the tiller, one very capable Chris Mohney, and they’d like your input as to The World’s Sexiest City… well, only second sexiest after the lovely Kissimmee Florida, surely. Ha ha! We kid Kissimmee only for being a fetid hole of despair living off of the Disney area in Orlando much the same way a needle hole lives off a smack junkie. We digress; now is the time to go on over to the lovely Gridskipper, enjoy the swanky new editoral stlyings, and cast yer vote.

A concept somewhere between Channel 101 and The Real World, AlphaGirlsTV is an internet hub of amateur video in which young ladies with a digital camera an internet connection send in the sort of meandering balloon juice which normally a person has to endure having all kinds of sex first in order to hear. These videos are then edited into more or less “Real World confessional” style shorts, which unfold over the course of a season. There are five girls with their own shows at the moment, the one voted the most popular wins a trip to Hollywood.

Nike’s recent crass co-opting of a Minor Threat album cover for their bullshit skateboard tour has lead to speculation as to which bit of rock art is next in this pretty great gallery of photo jiggery-pokery.
