Google´s Crop circle & Alien abduction logos

by Marcus Westberg on September 17, 2009

in General

The Internet giant Google continues to fascinate the world in a way that only they can. Google sometimes replace their original logo from time to time with another variation of it. For holiday logos etc: See examples here.

Recently Google have used 2 logos that look a bit different. Google updated their Twitter profile Sept 4´th with a cryptic tweet: 1.12.12 25.15.21.18 15 1.18.5 2.5.12.15.14.7 20.15 21.19. They linked that tweet to a twitpic page displaying the logo with the UFO abducting the O (Image below). If you replace that cryptic code with letters (a=1, b=2 etc) you will find that the message is all your o are belong to us“. This will of course make you think about “all your base are belong to us” which was a hype like 9 years ago or so. In short: The phrase is a line of subtitled dialogue from the introduction to the video game Zero Wing. It is actually still funny even though it´s really old.

Moving the blog

by Marcus Westberg on April 3, 2009

in General

Ok all set. Everything is ready for me to transfer this blog to a new web host and on the way repairing this half broken Wordpress installation. The web host that I am using now is just way to slow.

Before the summer I will be able to start bloging more frequently. I figured that this is actually a lot more fun when everything else is in order. I managed to fix a lot of things regarding my own company and my income. So now I will have more time for fun stuff. Like blogging and other more social (well social on the Internet) activities.

11:11 is a phenomenon already known by many people. What it does is that it reminds you of certain specific times during the day by making you pay attention. [...]

This is what I got today in my mailbox:

I guess it pays to send out email spam otherwise they would not be doing it. How many people actually visits sites like this? Even if I would be interested in the topic I would not click, it´s agains all [...]

I am going to Toronto (perhaps even SES)

April 16, 2008

So finally I upgraded this blog to Wordpress version 2.5… I haven´t touched this site for quite a while so I´m currently doing some work on it.
I noticed that you need both Akismet and Bad Behavior anti spam plugins to actually stop spam, but even then some spam comments manage to sneak in.
So anyway, [...]
