Finks Links #89

Ah...let's just bask in that Friday feeling for a minute or two...it's the 12th week of the year, and in just a couple of days British Summer time begins, so don't forget to change your clocks on Saturday night...for those having a bit of trouble remembering, it's "Spring Forwards, Fall Back", so this time we loose an hour in bed (worse luck) but on the plus side it's much less time holding down the "Set" and "Hour" keys on your clock radio... ;)

Anyway, it being Friday, I have just a few links (things I found in the tubes) to share with you -

Let's start with the biggest space disaster in history (that you probably never heard of) and the raw video footage of the incident (and aftermath)...

20Gb of storage in 1980, vs 32Gb of storage in 2010...scary...

"Jedi" who refused to remove their hood at the job centre gets an apology...!

Recent Brunel Thames Tunnel Tour (in words and pictures)...

The timeline of fictional future events...

...and to go along with it, a similar video game timeline...

Flamewar, 1839...

...and finally, an almost unbelievable fire alarm fail and an amusing "Study Computer" fail...

Jolly good weekend everyone, catch you next week, hopefully with some nice pictures from the Volksworld show!
