The most visited websites

I am always curious about websites statistics. Today I came across this article of the 500 most popular sites on the web. Not so many surprises there. There are lists of the most popular sorted by country, genre etc and more important we can check the rankings of our sites and compare them with other sites too. http://www.alexa.com/site/ds/top_500

My Neen thoughts on Wikipedia

Harold Pinter Nobel speech

Harold Pinter condemned the invasion of Iraq:

"a bandit act, an act of blatant state terrorism, demonstrating absolute contempt for the concept of international law. The invasion was an arbitrary military action inspired by a series of lies upon lies and gross manipulation of the media and therefore of the public; an act intended to consolidate American military and economic control of the Middle East masquerading--as a last resort--all other justifications having failed to justify themselves--as liberation. A formidable assertion of military force responsible for the death and mutilation of thousands and thousands of innocent people."

A RAINBOW FOR LONDON

People in London have a reason to celebrate these days. Same sex marriages are legal. It is a victory for all of us who believe that sexuality should not be an obstacle for people having the same rights and benefits. It is a defeat for all those remaining governments who still insist on not passing similar laws and amendments. Mr Karamanlis don't mess with us!

T-shirts Today

London's Dover Street Market has launched a t-shirt line with New Yorker's cartoons. These t-shirts are a must for holiday shopping but it is annoying that you cannot buy them online.

The Low Spark of High Heeled Boys

This is a seventies LP cover by Traffic. Both it's cover and tittle are amazing. It is designed by Tony Wright.
