Slashdot, also known as 'Isle of Slash', is located right under "Ocean of Subculture"

Check out www.mapjack.com, they have a unique way to look arround in San Fransisco, they have created a character (Jack) and you see exactly what Jack sees. You can roam on the streets using street level view. They just launched Panoramic View of stret-level images, through which you can watch arround jack at 360 degree angle.
