It’s about the stupidest site you’ll look at all week, but the URL has been flying across the Web as everyone mails it to friends: it’s the dancing hamsters at . If it doesn’t make you laugh, then you’re clearly the kind of person who enjoys reading Windows programming manuals.
We’ve all prayed before our computers, usually when the Windows Blue Screen of Death or little Mac bomb appears, bringing tidings of discomfort and despair. But the Jesuits would like us to try a more serious form at Sacred Space .
The site, launched on Ash Wednesday for Lent, aims to promote a deeper spirituality. It features a new scripture each day and a range of Jesuit writers to guide you through a five- to 10-minute prayer session.
American evangelist Jerry Falwell caused a furore when he insisted that the Teletubby Tinky Winky was gay. That purple outfit! The gay pride triangle on his head! Now the sleuths at offer irrefutable evidence that Tinky Winky is as straight as a Teletubby can possibly be.
If you use your home computer to receive faxes you’ll know the frustration of trying to ensure it’s on when a fax is coming in.
Now, two companies, CallWave at and eFax at , offer free services that allow people to send faxes to a phone number, which are then forwarded to your e-mail address as attachments. The numbers are in the United States (although that won’t matter to some people) and you can only receive, not send, faxes.
