Second Life will dwarf the web in ten years

No bugs?

"Software will be so good, there will be no more consulting jobs"

What? How does that make any sense whatsoever? Who writes and tests the software? Who designs it? That's just a stupid thing to say.

Reminds me of a famous tester (can't remember the name now) who, when given a piece of software to test, would ask "How many bugs do you want me to find?".

Fans left guessing over Samsung 'designer' phone

Leather case

If this is anything like my current phone (the very geeky Samsung SGH P300), and I strongly suspect it is from the look of it, the leather case hides another battery, extending the battery life considerably. It's a nice little touch!

Romanian cops cuff drunk, naked, handless driver

How he opened the door...

Probably with his feet. Don't handless people become quite dexterous with their feet? I've seen paintings done by handless people with their feet, and they're a darn sight better than I can manage with two hands.

Catherine Tate to accompany Doctor Who

Good choice!

CT is funny, but she can also do a lot more than just "bovvered" (not even her funniest character in her show). I'm just hoping that this gets rid of this whole "apprentice loves Dr" cliche that they've slipped into recently. Boring! (I suppose the best way around that is to get rid of DT and hire someone more in keeping with the original concept of the Dr, controversial!).

Oh, and Moffat is the best writer. Bye bye RTD!
