Why the pope is smarter than everyone.
A new search engine called Clusty based on Vivisimo. It clusters results based on similarity between documents. So if you were searching for Bruno Bornsztein (and, let’s face it, I know some of you are), you’d see all the results from this site clustered together, and you wouldn’t have to spend hours going through all the stuff about that French mathematician (who haunts my dreams).
Here are some crazy drawings. And here are some crazy illustrations (note: illustrations != photograpshs).

You don’t even see them the next day.
What ever happened to college being about, y’know, learning and stuff? It seems like for a growing number of people college is just an older, stupider version of high school.
Well, as long as the other great institution of higher learning doesn’t descend to that level, I think we’ll be alright. ‘Cause really, I don’t think anyone wants to see Alex Trebec “do a beer bong”.
