News at a Glance

Paradoxically, this site is showing all the pictures found in news and reviews over the Internet. Nothing to read there, just thumbnail galleries sorted by theme (with, of course, links to the original articles). This format is showing some interesting side-effects. First, you can see what's hot lately because the same picture is repeated over your screen. It is also very effective when looking for reviews of tech toys or computer gizmos... spotting a CPU or a japanese robot among other items is almost instantaneous. Another thing to notice is that pictures of human faces seem to keep the lead over pie charts and battlefields... they are a good clue to figure what an article is about."

    I can see it now, bill gates 1000x's on my screen just looking back at me with a different pose and look on his face.

    Stop it. Don't be a moron. Not everything is about Bill Gates and Microsoft. Some of you seem mentally ill in your obsession./p
