Welcome to The Automated Beacon

“The beacon continuously relays selected live web searches as they are being made around the world, presenting them back in series and at regular intervals.

 

The beacon has been instigated to act as a silent witness: a feedback loop providing a global snapshot of ourselves to ourselves in real time.”

 

It’s a webcrawer that runs over (with?) Google. And while the visual aspect of the page is lacking, reading what people search for will more than make it up.  It becomes a little addictive even.

 

I love EOJ

It seems we’re all super busy and not really posting.  Yet I still check EOJ! So I just wanted to make a “non-post” post to say: YAY!

He just wants to get on our good side

dollarsx 600 =Arkel

So we should all be getting $600 tax rebate checks by May. The point of these things is to help stimulate the economy- in other words: get people buying shit. There are problems with this scheme, such as most people either put the money in savings or use it to pay down debt. Similar attempts have been met with mixed results in the past… However, I say take your rediculous money and buy something ridiculous with it. I, for one, plan to pick up a pair of Arkel Touring Panniers.

Sometimes I miss Maine

go here, and scroll down the page to the video section, and watch the “New Years Ball Drop”.  There’s no way to embed it, or I’d have it here.
