Just seen the new design of the #Guardian website home page and to me the topline of featured articles above the header just looks like some weird rendering error. Why would you elevate that above your branding? Plus it makes it look like Arsenal is more important story than a potential war.

My bus this morning was somewhat delayed due to taking a corner too tightly and knocking over a fire hydrant. My, those things are under a lot of pressure!

Anyone else remember the Asus Eee PC? It was a 'netbook' - I had one of the OG 700 series ones with a 7-inch screen running Xandros (the Windows models were almost unusable). It was an awesome piece of kit. Is there anything similar around nowadays (perhaps with a slightly larger screen)?

Watch out, watch out, there's snow angels about! I assume this is the natural hibernation form of the weeping variety during a cold snap.

One of my favourite #monochrome #photos from last year is this surfer on the Eisbachwelle in Munich. It was a chilly day in October so the river must have been living up to its name ("ice brook").
