Next, you'll forgive me for providing a link that may suck away your time if you have not already been there. The marvellous site has been sharing images, videos, links and artwork of interest as well as providing web hosting since the internet was still young. Scott Beale is the primary tentacle for the site and we talked about marking 15 years and how the web has changed.

Last but not least, a man who is probably online when most of us would not even consider it. Challenged by Vodaphone to do something creative with sim cards, Christian Payne, known as , managed to travel from Lands End to John O'Groats. Why is that special? He did it without a penny in his pocket and managed to crowd source lifts, food and accommodation along the way. He describes his incredible journey.
