Pirates of the Caribbean:At World’s End movie review

Pirates of the Caribbean:At World’s End

Pirates of the Caribbean:At World’s End just hit theatres last Thursday. Though I wasn’t able to see it on the first day out, I managed to get myself to see it on Friday night at my usual movie spot, Eau Claire Mall.

It was pretty packed, I ended up having to sit near the front. Which was fine, the screen area covered the entire area of my peripheral view.

Linkin Park - Minutes To Midnight

I’ve been a big fan of Linkin Park for a long time now, and it happens that I picked up their recent album called “Minutes To Midnight“.

Here’s a cool site that got circulated in our email boxes at work.

Try Drugs

It’s a pretty neat site. Though I’ve never done any illegal drugs in my life…

Facebook - Do I know you from somewhere?

Ok, ok fine. I finally gave in and got an account on Facebook. Why? I have no idea. Perhaps because nearly everyone at Critical Mass is on Facebook. As much as I wanted to stay out of this online social networking site, curiosity got the best of me.

As I explored the networks, I came across someone whom I haven’t seen for a very long time. My friend from Elementary, Leah…

Project : Definitely Accessible

Definitely Accessible

After taking some time to roughly go through all my notes from the web accessibility, I to realize that there’s a LOT of information in this area alone. Presenting all this information in front of the entire Technology Department at Critical Mass will prove as difficult as that Webmaster exam I took.

To my surprise, Banff’s main street was under construction…
