Pirate Bay Trial: The Hottest Ticket in Stockholm

Today I bought a scalped seat in a court of justice for the first time in my life. The Pirate Bay courtroom was full. But locally famous Swedish author Sigge Eklund whispered in my ear that he had an offer for three seats after the intermission. The price would be about $60 each. We met in a corner of the hallway and finalized the transaction with three young men who were leaving. I was in! This pretty much captures the rock-star quality of The Pirate Bay trial. 

Good luck, guys.

Many could name them "nerds"

Many could name them "nerds", some would use "geeks"...

The point is both of the following videos are depicting passionate, curious, smart people.
People who, in these days of omnipresent technology, are becoming more and more important. And useful.

More info after the break.

Contemporary city photoshopped with war-scenes from history

"Sergei Larenkov has photoshopped together modern images of St Petersburg with photos taken during the brutal Siege of Leningrad during WWII (at least, I think these are Leningrad, from the translations -- can someone more familiar with the city and the language confirm?).  "

How to be a nerd

I don't know if it's somewhat with the jacket, with its size or with his look.

But this is really nerd.

This Nintendo jacket is the perfect gift for no one
