Morning all, and welcome to this weeks Friday Funnies, the 280th post on this very blog. In a wild week where we've been blown from pillar to post here in the UK, I feel it only right that I post this awesome video that appeared at the beginning of the week...

Next up, thinking about going on holiday? Well what about the Dagobah system??


Next up, look at this picture closely, it takes a while to 'see' what your looking at. But when you do its oh so cool!



Finally this week and just to get a teensy bit serious, it was leaked yesterday (via boingboing.net) that the UK government plans to create what has been dubbed the 'Pirate Finder General'. This is bad news for anyone who enjoys the freedoms and open sharing of information that the internet permits. And no I'm not talking about stealing music and films. This goes far deeper and effectively kills any hope of sharing links on twitter because a news article is copyrighted, for example. This will affect entire family's because one person in that family transferred a copyrighted, legally obtained video file via the internet to a friend overseas. Suffice to say I believe the old school media machine along with the government need to implement reform and embrace what is happening in front of them rather than over legislate and run and hide from the problem. Essentially cos they have a few pounds less in their over sized bank accounts. Anyway Cory Doctorow said it wayyyy better then me, go read his article. Free the data/Share your knowledge! Make your voice known, this could effectively kill the internet as we know it peeps. Go shout at Mandy Pandy here...


Anyways have a good rest of Friday going into Saturday, we shall see you Sunday!
