| Slate on sweet tea. I think I’ve only had lame imitations and never the real thing. Or at least I hope they were lame imitations because they were NAST. |

| Cheerwine Explosion |

| Cheerwine has suddenly come out of nowhere to take over the internet. They’ve got the very zeitgeist-y fake news website, a street team blog favoring pictures of Cheerwine-drinking teens in bikinis, and Youtube turns up a bunch of fan-made commercials. Sad times when a 90-year-old soda is making me feel old. |

| I’ve been hearing rumors that Mountain Dew is going to start selling Baja Blast in 20 oz bottles. Like in actual stores, instead of just at Taco Bell. Anyone seen any actual news or press releases about this? If it’s true, you know it’s 100% because of this website and the passion of its commenters. Go team! We are seriously |

| Article about an annoying guy trying to position another annoying coconut water beverage as miracle health elixir. K4T has already alerted the internet to how much we don’t like Zico, so this guy has no chance. [Thanks, Balg.] |

| K4T-ers– I am going to be in Virginia Beach, VA in a few weeks, so I was wondering if anyone from that area has some ideas about local beverage flava (stuff that I can’t get everywhere else) that I should try to soak up while I’m there? Y/n? |

| This ad makes me never want to drink Coke again. Seriously the part where the furry things climb up the bottle makes my skin crawl. Gross! They would totally get their hair all over the bottle. No bugs near my soda please ever. UGH God fuck this ad. |

| You can now buy a refurbished iPhone. $100 cheaper than a new one. I was wondering how long this would take. Other than my G4 PowerBook, all my Apple products are refurbbed. Also noteworthy is that the G4 PowerBooks are no longer listed. |

His battle with cancer helped him look beyond himself and what he said on his weblog is outstanding advice for anyone still breathing - Dying is not what scares me; it’s dying having had no impact.

| The rumors were true. A shiny new iMac. A thin new keyboard. iLife ‘08 and iWork ‘08, and uh, .Mac too. Unfortunately .Mac barely got any attention. Although upgrading the storage is a great start, it’s hardly a refresh. (UPDATE: Looks like .Mac has server side junk mail filtering now. Sounds like a setup for the iPhone.) The |

| Of all the rumors flying around tomorrow I am hoping for one thing: an upgrade to dot Mac. That would that be the only product update that would effect me in the near future, and it’s a much needed update for all us .Mac-ers who’ve been shelling out $99 a year for bookmark syncing and 1GB of IMAP email.

| Piggy backing on my post yesterday about slimming back my RSS feeds. I am always discovering new sites that look interesting. Instead of skipping them altogether because “I’ve already got all the RSS I can handle” I have a folder specifically for new feeds so I can feel free to add them. They go into a folder in NetNewsWire |
