So a while ago Sarah Silverman made a song called “I’m Fucking Matt Damon“, I put it on this blog some time ago.
Well it now appears that Jimmy Kimmel has had is revenge on her. I wont ruin it for you by Giving you the songs name but lets say it’s gold.
Pipe International has launched a blog to be as open and honest about the entire process of running their first international cable link from Sydney, Australia, to the United States Territory of Guam. I previously bloged about this cable back in January when it was announced.
The purpose of this blog is to track the progress of the PPC-1 submarine cable as it is surveyed, installed and delivered. Wherever possible we will provide documents, photographs and possibly video clips of various parts of the project.
Personally I hope they can get a good move along with this cable as it stands to put a big dent in the cost of data in Australia.
Just a quick one here today, for some time spammers have been using Google adword URLs to perpetrate their spam.
Example:
http://www.google.com/pagead/iclk?sa=l&ai=ukeaFe&num=65293&adurl=http://westphoto.org/redir.htmlThis is pretty much what they do below:
http://{google domain}/pagead/iclk?sa=l&ai={6 random letters}&num={5 random numbers}&adurl={http://www.example.com/}NOTE: Everything inside the {}, including the {} are no what you will see in the URL
While you can see the URL at the end that they are trying to get you to see, most anti-spam systems will thinks it Google and will resolve it as Google.

Heres my result on a personality test, INTJ, I always find these test fascinating.
This test is based on Carl Gustav Jung‘s theory of psychological types and the personality research of Myers-Briggs.
Kordia Group Ltd and PIPE International (Australia) Pty Ltd have announced (Pipe Announcement) their intention to build a new submarine cable linking Australia & New Zealand.
Mostly I think this is good news for people in New Zealand this will pretty much mean they will have access to PPC1 Pipe’s other international link that they are building to Guam. Not to mention the most likely improvement in ping time between Australia and New Zealand, great for gaming.
