  1. Stenographic reporting of anonymous sources on Obama Wants Allies To Go After WikiLeaks · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I'll do the Glenn Greenwald thing and point out the pathetic "stenographic reporting". When you anonymously quote a political body supporting itself as news, you are a tool of that political body. Here are the sources cited in the article:

    American officials say
    Officials tell The Daily Beast
    American officials confirmed last month

    an American diplomatic official
    a Defense Department official marveled.

The free game which was included, Phasor Patrol, was my favorite in the Star Raiders / Starmaster spaceflight-sim genre. The A/B switches raised and lowered shields on your ship, and the crosshairs changed color to offer target tracking. It was extremely smooth and immensely playable. Another great game for the Supercharger was Dragon Stomper...

    Mouseless Browsing
    Injects little CSS number boxes to the right of each link, which you can open with the numberpad. Add a (+) after the number to open in a new tab.

    Next Please
    Also nice... watches for Previous and Next links on the bottoms of pages and assigns a hotkey to them (Control+Shift Left Right, I think)
