Philipp Lenssen, author of Google Blogoscoped, has put together a book entitled "55 Ways To Have Fun With Google". He covers a lot of interesting Google topics and there have been many people that have said they can't put the book down!

I saw this movie and I think they might be right, Google might be breaking the privacy of millions of people around the World. Who knows what will come next, cameras in our house? :D
The PirateBay.org had their servers taken by police the other day, but now they say that they will be back online in a day or two. This will come after the MPAA said that similar PirateBay sites should take this as a warning. What kind of warning would that be if the PirateBay comes back after just a few days of being down? :D
