this i lifted from Fresh Egg and looks like an ad or sponsored post, but it’s not - i think.

Imagine knowing what Rand is actually up to at SEOMoz whilst the rest of the team actually do the work. Perhaps you can shadow our very own Ammon Johns and work out how he has become a ‘Level 8 SEO’ and use all his knowledge! Imagine knowing the budgets of what some are prepared to pay just to buy links!

FOR a certain subset of Internet users, “Sudo make me a sandwich” may as well be “Take my wife … please.”

Perhaps some explanation is in order. Before giving up the goods, however, we should heed the warning of Randall Munroe, the 23-year-old creator of xkcd, a hugely popular online comic strip (at least among computer programmers) where the sandwich line appeared. Mr. Munroe believes that analyzing a joke is like dissecting a frog — it can be done, but the frog dies.

Still, he plays along, explaining that “sudo” is a command in the Unix operating system that temporarily grants godlike powers: “The humor comes from people who have encountered typing a command and having the computer say ‘No,’ and they say, ‘Oh, yeah, sudo says,’ and the computer does it. Kind of like ‘Simon says.’ ”

na categoria Web Quadrinhos. Fiquei contente de terem se ligado nas novas tendências e aberto essa categoria, porque antes tudo de internet era um pouco misturado.

a entrega dos prêmios aos vencedores vai ser no SESC Pompéia [SP] dia 23 de Julho. a votação nos melhores é feita por 1200 profissionais cadastrados do meio. obrigado à Comissão de Organização do Troféu HQ Mix pela lembrança.

a lista completa de indicados eu vi no blog do Homem-Grilo do Cadu Simões, que está concorrendo em 3 categorias.

me escreve, cara. meus emails pra ti tão voltando. tenho boas notícias.

a very informative post at the Newsarama Blog:

Ordering new books is a financial risk. How do I get a harried, pressed-for-shelf-space retailer to take a chance on me, a first-timer with no track record? That’s the question I posed to four of my prospective customers, indy-friendly retailers. They are: Rory Root [RIP], owner of Comic Relief (Berkeley, CA), Alex Cox, owner of Rocketship (my home store here in Brooklyn, NY), Andrew Neal, owner of Chapel Hill Comics (Chapel Hill, NC), and Ben Trujillo, owner of Star Clipper (St. Louis, MO). Boy, have they got answers.

This is the world’s largest military hovercraft and it belongs to the Russian army.
It is armed with missiles, artillery and AA defense guns and can carry a few heavy tanks at once.
After approaching to the enemy coastline it can give a burst of fire to tear of such fierce force that can tear big military ship apart, then without any slowing down start moving on the shore advancing deep inside to unload the tanks and infantry.

a premiação vai ser dia 23 de julho no Sesc Pompéia - o tema homenageado vai ser “imigração japonesa” - e o MAJOR consta na lista de lançamentos de 2007 como “blog ou site” [podia ter uma categoria de webcomic, mas tá valendo].

1200 profissionais da área votam e a lista tá nessa planilha zipada. acho que dessa lista gigante saem primeiro os indicados e depois os ganhadores.

se você é um dos 1200 sortudos que vivem de HQ no Brasil [hehehe] e está votando, tamos aê.

tem gringo procurando 4 com experiência militar para ‘trabalho sujo \ espionagem \ segurança’ em anúncio do Craiglist.
