Apparently, it just started on its 4th season on USA Networks (I think it may be carried by NBC, not sure about this). There&#8217;s an <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_4400\">extensive Wikipedia entry<\/a> on the show and just like &#8216;Lost&#8217;, fans of the series have <a href=\"http:\/\/www.the4400wiki.org\/Main_Page\">started a 4400 Wiki<\/a>. I recognized one of the songs played during the pilot (you can watch episodes on the tv-links site [11\/01\/07: Defunct]): it was the theme song used for Stephen King&#8217;s &#8216;Kingdom Hospital&#8217; (which was song\/performed by the band Ivy [<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thebandivy.com\/\">website<\/a>]).\n<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, someone pointed to the (video) site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imcooked.com\">&#8216;I&#8217;m Cooked&#8217;<\/a>, a site that allows users to upload videos of how to prepare their favourite recipes or meals. Actually, I think I got there via a MetaFilter link (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.metafilter.com\/63363\/Coulda-used-a-little-more-cow\">right here<\/a>). I was skeptical about the site but, apparently it&#8217;s popular.\n<\/p>\n<p>Slightly related to above (relatively): I found this video about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.i-am-bored.com\/bored_link.cfm?link_id=24486\">double slit experiment and quantum theory<\/a>. Informative, funny and clear.\n<\/p>\n<p>And last but not least: I found an excellent series of articles about <a href=\"http:\/\/msdn2.microsoft.com\/en-us\/library\/ms364091(VS.80).aspx\">generics, graphs, datastructures and binary trees in C#<\/a>. If you forgot about these elementary programming parts, now is a good time to refresh your mind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alfons mentioned the &#8216;4400&#8217; show, a series I&#8217;ve never heard of before.
