New advances in clothing technology...perfect for web addicts!

Now it's possible to apply germ-killing nanoparticles to textiles. When clothing with this technology becomes commercially available at an affordable price, it will eliminate one more reason to take an unwanted break from the "intertubes"!

How much of an Internet addict are you?

Take this test to find out.

But then, if you even have to ask, you probably know the answer already!

"Oops! That wasn't supposed to happen! © Google 2007"

Okay, I'll admit it: 1389, a/k/a the editor of this blog, is the worst Internet junkie on the planet. Among other things, I have upwards of thirty feeds coming into my Google Reader account alone, and when I'm out somewhere, I pick them up on my cellphone with Google Reader Mobile, which is currently in beta test.

Normally, Google Reader Mobile works surprisingly well, even on a cellphone screen not much bigger than a postage stamp.

This past Friday, I clicked on a feed link and got the mysterious message shown in the header of this blog entry.

Obviously, this is not the most helpful error message - neither for the tech support staffer nor for the end user. If any of you happen to know anything about this message, please post a comment here!

More to the point: my attention was especially drawn to the fact that Google included a copyright notice in a message that is such a painfully ironic summation of the human condition.

After all, who among us has not said, or at least thought, the same thing?
