Snoop Blog

One of the coolest things ever is to start at anyone's blog (on blogger), and click on next blog. It's a miracle of randomness. Once I got a blog dedicated to danish hamsters. (It's a small world.)

I'm surprised at how often they're in portuguese. Actually, I'm too lazy to figure out whether it's actually portuguese or brazilian. I can't read it all that easily, so it's probably brazilian. Unless the Angolan technoliteracy rate is one of the best kept secrets on the planet.
Anyway, either the guy who programmed the button has a thing for portuguese (and who doesn't) or... 'getting a Brazilian' will become phat slang among IT nerds in the near future.

Isn't that cool, linguists? It's like a random test of identifying languages on spec. Kind of like going back to that page where they post a new set game puzzle every day.

One of the not-coolest things ever is when you hit the back button accidentally and lose your entire post. peace out.
