The French defeat…
“Considerable excitement today over the French surrender, and people everywhere to be heard discussing it.”
A lot has been written about the French football team basically giving up. However, I’ve not seen anyone notice the date. It was the 70th anniversary of the surrender of France in World War II.

More bad design…
This single dialog box is the worst bit of design that I know. Every time I see it I wonder about the tortured soul who had to program it.
![The most awkward possible use of the word “only”? The dialog above is part of IE8, and it is intentionally confusing. The intent is to trick you into clicking “Yes” unless you carefully parse every word above.By clicking No, you’re saying “No, I want to see everything on the page.” They’re trying to err on the side of security, but in doing so, they’re knowingly confusing the user. And that should never be considered the safer choiceInstead, why not two simple buttons:[Show Me Everything] [Block Insecure Content](Prompted by Gruber’s link to this Smileycat bit about another confusing Yes/No dialog box.)](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l43kzswmvc1qz56g8o1_500.png)

Another film about nowhere…
Somewhere – Movie Trailers – iTunes.
Is it me or are there more and more films about people being lost and without a fixed home?
No change…
Read the quote, then guess the year and the author…
“Always, as I walk through the Underground stations, sickened by the advertisements, the silly staring faces and strident colours, the general frantic struggle to induce people to waste labour and material by consuming useless luxuries or harmful drugs.”
