Anyone heard of Jonathon Strange and Mr. Norrell, well there has been loads of buzz bout it. Its a kids fantasy novel being majorly hyped. Haven’t read any of it yet coz it’s only out in hardback and costs around 24 quid. Anyways New Line have bought the rights. Suppose that means I should read it before the film gets made, so have a few years at least then :)

The other story is about how retro is cool, even when you’re talking about a computer virus. Some genius has decided that a great thing to spend their time on is creating a virus that spreads on floppies and cd-roms and deletes all files on Xmas day, and replaces any gif with a pic saying Die Jehovah in Finnish. See The Register for more
