While Gary “No Blog” Stock hasn’t quite started a blog, despite my incessant whining, he has pseudo-blogged the gogglewhacking fad he’s propagating. (Gogglewhacking means finding combinations of ordinary words that bring up the fewest hits on Google.com)

Jacob Shwirtz, creator of the truly odd, upload orgy Gazm.org, has started a blog cleverly named Fuzzy Blogic.

Julian Harley points to FriendsReunited, a site that’s apparently a big hit in the UK. You tell it which schools you went to with any comments about your life since being paddled by the upper form boys, and then you can see which of your chums have also registered.

Unfortunately, you have to register to be able to search for pals. If you do, you’ll be able to see notes such as these from classmates at the Aspen House School in Streatham: “I have been married for 18 years to Andy and have two children aged 14 and 11. I live in Northamptonshire and work as a cashier at Sainsburys” and “I’m very happily married with two little girls. Jobwise I’m a Business Analyst with a large retail company.” (These are probably more interesting if you actually know the people. True of so much of life.)
