Good quote on Lane Kiffin from Pat Forde of ESPN

Paris Hilton has paid more dues than Lane Kiffin.

That quote pretty much sums up how I feel also.

A Peek Into Netflix Queues

A Peek Into Netflix Queues - Examine Netflix rental patterns, neighborhood by neighborhood, in a dozen cities.

This is awesome. The usefulness of this data is limitless. I bet you could predict the census patterns just looking at these maps. You could pick what part of a new city you wanted to move by just looking at what movies that part of the city rents. Using the movies they have represented here you can identify every ethic group a city has. You can see educated areas, minority areas, middle-class, gay, etc... Hopefully someone is doing to neat stuff with this data because it needs to be mined. I could play with this for hours.

Dell UltraSharp U2711 LCD Monitor via CNET

Looks like a winner, 2560x1440 resolution at 27". Might look into one of these for the home office once they go on sale. Could be a solution to use with my laptop since running multiple LCDs via the laptop doesn't work.

Airport security scanners

All you have to do is invert the scanned image and you've got a almost perfect picture of anyone who goes through one of the new full-body scanners . I'm OK with it, but nobody wants to see me naked. For celebs you can't tell me those images wouldn't leak. We should just all wear orange jumpsuits on flights.
