It’s hard not to try to read more in to this rather interesting timing of two freakishly-coincidental-occurences at Microsoft and Google.

Normally I’m not a big fan of Valleywag, but days like today are the ones they really suit up for. Without further ado, let me summarize today’s tech news:

Thank <insert benefactor of choice here> for the EU. The impossible has happened. I’d write more, but I’m speechless.

I came across Jeremy Zawodny’s most recent post while perusing reddit (which, btw, is increasingly losing my confidence). Anyway, I read his post, and noticed it was mostly a wrapper around two blog posts including one by… William Reardon. I’m thinking to myself, “hey, I know a William Reardon….”. Sure enough, it is, in fact a post from Bill’s blog, which I happened to be behind on reading. So, follow this: reddit & Zawodny are both net famous, so with both of them directing people to Bill’s blog, that makes Bill net famous. I know Bill, so while I’m not actually net famous, I believe that means I’ve been touched by net fame. Wow, for about 15 seconds it’s an exhilarating thought.
