Mid-January Link Dump

Bits and pieces spotted so far this year:

Cross Site Printing: A deliciously evil hack that takes spam to another dimension.
The Fritz Files - Snakecharmer and Auditory Illusions: Holophonic Sound: Examples of binaural and holophonic recording.
Network Solutions - Squat for the Win: It seems Network Solutions ‘reserves’ any domain names searched for, a rather sleazy business practice. Even if you search elsewhere, there are staff at registrars and ISPs that monitor activity and buy up interesting domains for themselves (got caught out by this myself once).
CG Textures: A great library of free images for 2D/3D design work.
The Monkey’s Tale…: …of kicking the crap out of its crazy owner.
Sears.com: Join the Community - Get Spyware and Managemyhome.com: Another privacy issue for Sears: Yet another company that clearly hasn’t got sensible, tech-savvy people in senior roles.
2008 Olympics brought to you by Silverlight: How much do you think Microsoft effectively paid for this?
EditArea - the code editor in a textarea: Seems pretty impressive; I might use this for a couple of projects.
