http://www.gunaxin.com/a-tribute-to-fallen-dead-discontinued-sodas/11115

Like the post for fallen cereals, this one shows all the soft drinks that aren't with us anymore. I think you'll be surprised about some of the beverages that are gone because I didn't even notice that they were no longer available (Sprite Remix).

Brekky's Pizza...out of a vending machine


http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/14/business/worldbusiness/14vend.html?_r=1&sq=italy%20pizza&st=cse&adxnnl=1&scp=1&adxnnlx=1237208584-I0EPkEyifTJ+jMWAhMOoOw

10 Newspapers that may become online-exclusive.


http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1883785,00.html?xid=rss-mostpopular

Today's internet is making tons of people adapt. Music had to learn to sell their wares online or face having it stolen even more than it is today. Newspapers just create so much garbage, and now with Kindle and online newspapers, they are becoming obsolete. Time.com has created a list of 10 newspapers that are on the verge of being online only.

The only question I have is, since there is no more paper...what do we call it instead of newspaper?

Do you like the Simpsons?


http://www.snpp.com

If you're a hardcore Simpsons fan you probably know about this site, but if not, then this is for you.

This site has lists, quotes, every possible meaning for Simpsons references, all those sight gags that you need to pause your dvd player to read, etc.

Just go. It will take up at least an hour of your time.

Facebook is Changing again.


http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/03/04/facebooks-response-to-twitter/

This article from techcrunch.com goes over the newest Facebook layout and how it's trying to maintain it's stranglehold over social networking.

I personally don't mind new layouts once in a while, but I think a lot of people get comfortable and don't want to have to relearn something that is supposed to be relaxing.
