♥♥♥ happy early valentines day! is your special someone a nerd? does sir patrick stewart make you hot? well, send them a valentine’s ecard, featuring elves, klingons and na’vi speaking in their native tongues. (and yes, these are actual translations, the good people at lemondrop got actual translations from actual ‘people’, not just from google). so find yourself a cute boy or girl who twitters from their parents’ basement and send them one! ♥♥♥

mouse trackin’
this isn’t terribly useful, but kind of fun, a little app that tracks your mouse usage for, uh, however long you leave it turned on. this is only a couple of hours, with a coffee break at the end (yes, the big dot).
