I found a couple of interesting stories on Slashdot... Here's a quick round up.
It seems like private sites in Korea are starting to adopt government site policy to require real names in web forums. The good thing about this is that this could discourage abuse and people would be more aware of the fact that anonymity really doesn't exist on the Web. On the other hand, people may lose what little anonymity they do have, and prevent some people from voicing their opinions online.
The other story that I found interesting was about this guy who created a case for a PowerBook 5300 out of lego. Apparently the case is strong enough to stand on, but still only weighs 750g (less than 2lb).
