I love checking out Google Labs. They’re always up to something. But the thing they’ve got cooking in there right now that I’m most excited about is Google Trends.

Someone fly me to Leipzig this weekend!
This looks like it’s going to be amazing — this weekend in Leipzig 20,000 goths “will gather from as far afield as Japan, Australia and the US for the Wave-Gotik-Treffen festival from 2 to 5 June.” Wow! Read the article here. (Thanks, Mark!) Update: My ever-squeezable friend Minnie sends me news of more fun World…

For once, I can announce a show before it happens. It’s official, it’s going to be *huge*, and there will most certainly be surprises. I’m so happy I think my head might explode.

Yay bloggers, yay EFF!
In the Mercury News, a victory for bloggers, the EFF and First Amendment protections.
