Image via Wikipedia The more time I spend online (as if it were possible), the more little things can make me change course completely. It’s all about adding up. Take Ars Technica, for instance.

I often observe little things while  web surfing, worthy to keep somewhere but not really worthy to make a fuss about. Today I decided to use this blog as a notebook for these little things. It’s a lighter side of blogging… Here is what I noticed trying to register in Streamy.
