Damn! How come I didn’t know about Rance until now? A blog ostensibly by a Hollywood star seeking somewhere anonymous to vent? I don’t know if it’s for real or not, but given the link I followed from Gawker, I envision Owen Wilson typing away and laughing maniacally.

Any other blogs out there I should know about and don’t?

Here are the countries I’ve visited:

And the states:

I am not well-traveled, yet I have this idea in my head that I am. Strange.

Update: As has been pointed out in comments, I have impolitely not included a link to the place where you can make these maps: http://www.world66.com/myworld66 There. All fixed.

Tired of the Nigerian scam? Join the party:

It has been described as the internet’s first blood sport and is fast becoming one of the web’s favourite pastimes. Fed up with having their inboxes clogged with emails from Nigerian fraudsters promising untold riches, the victims are finally hitting back.

Scam-baiting – replying to the emails and stringing the con artists along with a view to humiliating them as much as possible – is becoming increasingly popular with more than 150 websites chronicling the often hilarious results.

The site most prominently featured in the Guardian article is 419eater.com, in case you want to have a look-see.

Honestly, who would respond to the Nigerian e-mails? It’s so tragic.

(My favorite reverse Nigerian scam is the Cthulu scam, which I have mentioned here before.)
