Most hard-core granny in the world? Any 60-year-old who’d kick a shark in the neck gets my vote.
An Australian grandmother survives a shark attack after punching the animal, despite losing more than three pints of blood.

This is basically the funniest thing.
So: is the internet too complicated, or are people too stupid?
Fascinating. ReadWriteWeb has a weblog post that ranks highly in Google’s search results for “Facebook login”. The comments on the post are filled with complaints from confused people who think that this is the new Facebook login page.
It’s funny, yes, but it’s a fascinating glimpse at just how confused many people are about how web sites and browsers work. They don’t use bookmarks, they don’t type “facebook.com” in the location field. They just Google for whatever they’re looking for and assume the first result is correct. All this argument over whether the iPad is too simple — if anything it’s probably still too complex.

The post goes on to say it might not actually be the ad they use today… but it’s still completely adorable.
A killer app for the iPad, methinks. You could have a control surface that changes to suit the open application.
