Online advertising archive

Everyone must be aware of Internet Archive. Now someone comes with the idea of online advertising archive.

I like this site because it demonstrates how far Internet advertising has come from the boring banner ad.

There is also a weekly hall of fame highlights the best on the Internet ad.

Rate My Turban

Inspired a visit to Delhi, where the diversity and flair of Sikh headwear wowed him, Ash Singh set out to celebrate turban fashion worldwide. And what better way to do that than throw the whole operation open to the Web, where people can rate each headdress on a scale from “ok” to “super”?

The 50 Best Robots Ever

The 50 Best Robots pictures

They’re exploring the deep sea and distant planets. They’re saving lives in the operating room and on the battlefield. They’re transforming factory floors and filmmaking. They’re – oh c’mon, they’re just plain cool! From Qrio to the Terminator, here are our absolute favorites (at least for now).

From Wired Magazine with love: a nifty trip down memory lane that also doubles as a nerd test! There are plenty of familiar faux faces here, just waiting to say hi. R2D2, Hal 9000, Robby the Robot, Optimus Prime, the “classic sexbot” from “Metropolis,” the Terminator, and the Iron Giant all show up for the party. We were pleased to see the attack droids from the 1984 Tom Selleck sci-fi thriller “Runaway” and David Hasseloff’s first lifesaver, Kitt, the “smooth-talking, self-driving” Trans Am from “Knight Rider.” Even the Tin Woodman, “though technically a cyborg,” makes an appearance. Yeah, a lot of this stuff is super geeky (Autonomous Benthic Explorer, anyone?), but what can we say? Nerd out and see how you score out of fifty.

Say Goodbuy to the last double decker bus of London

Sadly, screenshotit’s time to say goodbye to an iconic symbol of London. The last double-decker bus retires today from its long years of service to the city. The red buses, which allowed passengers and mischievious boys hop on/hop off privileges, may be gone, but they will never be forgotten.

Through a selection of lovingly detailed photographs, this site celebrates the classic Routemaster. The drivers, the conductors, and the public who ride all appear in this tribute to the much-loved mode of transportation. Though the vehicle’s retirement may be controversial (81% of Londoners wanted them to stay), sites like this will help keep our memories alive of the red Routemaster, that shining star of London tourist postcards and photos.
