For example, I didn't know until today that you can watch music videos for free online on the Real Player website and on mtv.com (although most of the MTV ones don't work). This is fab cos I don't have a TV.

Is there anything else I should know?

You can use it to prop up uneven chairs.

for awhile http://launch.yahoo.com had 4 or 5 Massive Attack videos which amused me to no end. I love the video for "Safe From Harm". Nowdays, I checked out the site now at that yahoo address and it wasn't nearly as fun. BOO urns!
You can play 3d pong which used to amuse me greatly in computer labs.

I've tried the launch.yahoo.com site but the images don't appear on the page, just wanky little white boxes with pissy little red xs where the image should be. This puzzles me but doesn't bother me a great deal. What I do find very odd is that when I click to watch a video nowt happens at all. I suspect that this may have something to do with cookies or something. Does anyone know why I have to put up with this shit?

Check your Net browser. Do you have Netscape or something? Sometimes your browser won't match with the site you are using....

Oddly enough it happens with both IE and N. Maybe it might have sthg to do with the weather, which has been inclement of late.

Bugger me, I've just realised that this only happens on yahoo.com. Kinda odd. Is this a virus, anybody know?

Real.com has the new Spiritualized vid, full of dull junkie/"Jacob's LaddeR" minimalism.

also, launch.com had some killer vids, which seem to come & go. they had fucking SLOWDIVE videos, at one point.

and Sugar's vid for "Tilted".

hey Momus if you still have that nice dresser you don't want can you ship it to 42 Coromandel Street Newtown Wellington Aotearoa? It looks like you could afford it? (and filled with Butt magazines would be best). I could swap you, is there something y're after? Y'all look so well dressed. My bed is an old wooden pallet I dragged in off the street! (plus an old cheap but fine mattress on top of that). A photo with Duane would be good.

― cuspidorian (cuspidorian), Thursday, 18 September 2003 13:32 (twenty-two years ago)

okay the internet: it can assist you to embarrass yourself more than might otherwise be happenin'...I've known that for a long time now though, so: create sand art online SO satisfying
