StumbleUpon and Kickstarter Combined Make KickStumbler


A new website called KickStumbler is StumbleUpon and Kickstarter combined.

You can "stumble" random projects at KickStumbler like how you can "stumble" web pages at StumbleUpon.

This is a very unique idea for projects. It lets people find your project randomly which then can be liked etc.. A very neat idea. Check out KickStumbler when you get the chance.

Father Shoots Daughter's Laptop Over Facebook

A video has gone viral as a father shoots his daughter's laptop with hollow point rounds.

The daughter of this dad wrote a rebellious post on Facebook complaining about the chores she does and how her life is hard. The daughter attempted to hide her Facebook with security settings but failed. The father was uploading pictures to their dogs Facebook and then found out about the post from there. The dad created a video, reading the post and describing his thoughts on it. In the end he shot his daughter's laptop with a .45 pistol with nine hollow-point rounds.

This video has gone viral considerably in a short amount of time. The video currently has 15 million hits and counting. I recommend watching the entire video. It is definitively worth it!

SOPA Loses Support - GoDaddy Drops Support

GoDaddy, a domain registrar, has dropped support for SOPA.

GoDaddy dropped out because high-profile clients threatened to leave GoDaddy. GoDaddy isn't against SOPA, it just doesn't support it anymore.

Warren Adelman, the CEO of GoDaddy, said “It’s very important that all Internet stakeholders work together on this. Getting it right is worth the wait. GoDaddy will support it when and if the Internet community supports it."


GoDaddy might support SOPA in the future but for now GoDaddy will not support SOPA. GoDaddy has removed past SOPA blog posts to avoid confusion.
