This is a known issue and there is a fix.
But for now, let’s get to the links!
- Perfect Grilled Cheese (http://thedig.in/b6) – Do you realize how hard it is to spread butter on a sandwich as it sits on a hot skillet? Bread burnt before the cheese melts? All you need is melted butter and a skillet with lid to fix the two biggest complaints about grilled cheese (or my personal favorite – grilled peanut butter and jelly). Toss in some tomato soup and you may have the perfect meal.
- Amazing Bug and Water Photos (http://thedig.in/b5) – The link shows how to make a laser triggered camera for taking macro stills of bugs and water, however, the real amazement starts when you look at the galleries in the links. The bug ones are cool, but the water ones are downright unbelievable.
- Chat Roulette (http://thedig.in/b3) – The little blurb on this site is pretty funny. Essentially, the author went to a chatroom where you are randomly thrown in a chat with an unknown person. He says the first 18 people who he connected with disconnected immediately. Weird.
- “Music” Video (http://thedig.in/b4) – Warning: the title of the linked blog’s feature is “Stuff we’re diggin’” except worded slightly more crass. However, the video is completely safe for work. It a sound composite that makes up a song. If you don’t know what that means, watch the video and you’ll understand. You can also see the video below:
