The Antiquorum auction of an amazing amount of vintage Rolex watches set 9 new price records. Not surprisingly, the double-reds and the likes set the highest prices. It was all about decent sports watches with no bling in sight, just the way it should be.

Looks like Monster Cables picked on the wrong small company. There's something deeply scary about intimidating a company over patents and suddenly finding their CEO was yearning for some of the bare-knuckle scrapping he'd dealt with for the past 20-odd years as a lawyer in litigation practice.

I know it's possible to make money off Adwords (most people know that, I guess), but apparently it's possible to make HUGE amounts of cash, if you know what you're doing. This guy claims to be pulling in 16,000 USD a month from it. If it's true, I think we might all be in the wrong line of work!

If you post a hoax on the internet, can you remember Google will index it and it's only funny one day a year? The rest of the year, you're just a lying twat.
