Monitored Alarm Systems

This week 's favorite post of the week comes from: Santo Lobo.

First, contributing to mention my favorite articles every week since its inception, "Funniest / Most Insightful comments of the week at Techdirt". Mainly because I 'm still hoping to' re site 'on him. 'S nice to see what' wisdom of the masses 'without my almost-lackluster reviews, it \ pushed into the most insightful and entertaining categories.

That said, most of the enchilada! As luck would have it, my quick review of the week 's article just gave ten results, stuck in my head for a variety of reasons, and so we' ll a top-ten style to do countdown ( please don 't sue me if you for the \ work "Late Show".)

Number 10 Success! Sita Sings the Blues Once Again Visible to German Youtube

Nina 's video is availble in Germany again. Never knew Nina was in a Texas-soccermon somehow so cute. Her comics are particularly illustrative of certain topics and have a style all its own. Although, I myself am more of a SMBC XKCD and kinda guy.

Number 9 Court Injunction Denied Stop Secret Web Spycams Of Running On Laptop Rental Issue

Can you believe the court says 'possible espionage' is not a loss? Somehow I might say, "installed so yeah, this guy cameras in your sisters bedroom and bathroom - but 't mean that he' that doesn \ s watching her come to court if you can prove it 's just \ .. " This line of stories seems to me, mainly due to the absurdity of the result - well, why aren 't these people just to format the laptop and install a beautiful free operating system like Ubuntu and Mint? That would fix 'em in no time.

Number 8 Kevin Smith shows the importance of building a brand as part of CWF + RTB

Once again, the notable quotable Kevin Smith is in the news for taking action to go directly to his fans - an amazing phenomenon, for a film-maker (name two others that do). The new website is worth a visit - even if just to see that \ label "with love \ made". This is, of course, in addition to his podcast, iPhone app and other offerings that do not I 'm the time to list. I 've got a soft spot for Kevin Smith. He 's an amazing public speaker, makes very good movies, and if he wasn' t like a sports fan ecstatic I 'd still on him after Twitter.

Number 7 Once Again, Protects Us From The Law Enforcement America-destroying scourge of children with Lemonade Stand

Children of America tries to cash, police and politicians are trying to make money to take. A vivid tale of absurdities in our legal system, but I think it 's never too early, hitting the "obey or else" mantra in the minds of young people.

Number 6 Can Google Get Past The Big Faceless white monolith Stage?

A revealing of the changing nature of the Google look and add a specific comment on the nature and quality of customer services. I 've been a fan of Google since the time when the people "Google, which used to say' s that?" Being someone with an engineering mentality, I 've usually all they made found to be quite the way I would have done it. I 'll miss her' clumsy engineer 'larval stage - but I'm looking forward to when this cocoon stage finish and then go towards the foundation of the'. Federation of Planets '

Number 5. The Greatest Trick The NYTimes Ever Pulled Was Convincing The World Its Paywall Exists

How many digital pictures subrscribers the NYTimes has really? This is the story of cognitive dissonance and spin. The NYTimes has the numbers really? I only know of who has the money to build the paywall to convince the New York Times they were a competent contractor, a job in sales should have held on - and never any stupidity code again.

Number 4 Arrest people with Anonymous Unlikely To associate the effects of the Fed's expected

Pretty much everything you know about this story is true, there in the headline. This punny headline should have read as well: The FBI arrested random people expected "Internet problem", to get better. "The members of Anonymous" always cracks me up too. Does anyone check to pay their membership?

Number 3 Man Made Famous over 2006 arrest for video footage of the police ... While video recordings of the re-arrest police

This exemplary product is a harrowing tale of laws stretched abusing the population, and in this case, a special people. The evil is perpetrated by the inaction of good men. This guy certainly has some problems, but at least he 's something to do. Moreover, if 's saw the last time a protagonist with the same name as a Legend of Zelda boss?

Number 2 Sincerest form of flattery? Copies of the Apple Stores so convincing you think self-employees work for Apple

Convincing fake Apple store in China! Sure look like real iPads they 're sold. If only they 'd say it' Snapple 'store, they could' ve in a whole other mess was. The sheer chutzpah, gall and ingenuity of the makers of counterfeit products is a smile reminiscent of the unquashable spirit of man.

And finally ...

Number 1 Phoenix DA decides not to file charges against woman accused of Groping TSA agents

I like this story - someone who has a little tit-for-tat (no pun intended) to the TSA was absurd and not be punished for it. Unfortunately, although she saved 's through a formality rather than the morality of the district attorney.

Remember: Some people are like slinkies. You 're pretty much good for anything, but still a smile on your face when they fall down the stairs.

Have a good night all.
