Missing Berlin»
I had an awesome New Years, but it sounds like my friends who made it to CCC
this year had an awesomer one. They're all now obsessed by this 1996 Eurovision
epic, Surfen
Multimedia by the Eurocats. I can't think of a better monument to
Germany's influence on global cyberculture.
(My Sacrificial New Year's Resolution is to not say "awesome" so much.)
petit disclaimer:
My employer has enough opinions of its own, without having to have mine too.
