Cool Shit 9/23

This is a detailed look at the body count John Rambo tallied in the first 3 Rambo movies. Very detailed. Like maybe-this-author-should-be-on-some-sort-of-watchlist detailed. And yet why it excludes Rambo 4 I'll never know. So the creator is an obsessively detailed person that doesn't pay attention to detail I guess.

The positives of Grand Theft Auto.

Micropayments is the idea that people will pay a small amount of money to download something. Buying music from Itunes is a adequate example. With the newspaper industry on its last legs, there’s support to try this model with papers. Here’s a prediction on whether it could work or not.
