The error of our ways...

I think most of you would agree with me that the World news is as important as the air we breathe (unless you live in the US where its election madness or Darfur, in which case you should be starving or fighting so p off).

As my blog begins to mature and readers come from all over the world to listen (well, read) what I have to say (ahem, type) I am becoming increasingly motivated to write more about World news and generally try to cry 'Wol.. Why the West wont have the (Middle) East'. (thank you malteser!)

I particularly enjoy taking articles off the BBC World News website (because im British!) and then linking it here and ripping it to pieces (Bush and Olmert kissing anyone?). However, tonight it seems I am not going to be able to do that since someone at the BBC made a critical error in application by putting (too many) '/'s. I am not impressed!

This goes to show the kind of world we live in though, where crucial information can be denied to millions simply because of a slip up (being drunk on a Saturday night is no excuse mr technician person!). I for one am not afraid of AI (Artificial Ignorance / All your bases belong to us really) taking over the World but more so afraid of our reliance on web applications and language (watch it!). I seriously want to take this opportunity and not only warn the BBC of drunken technicians on Saturday nights, but also the World and its reliance on a language that if you press a '/' more than once it will crash the system. Either that or China has a billion hackers now.

We really need to address this issue///!

(Any suggestions from readers for me to use American based news websites will result in a public flogging. Not because im Pro Arab, but because you guys have basterdiZed our language!)
