Clicks of the Day: Wednesday May 18, 2011 Edition!

Welcome to Wednesday, May 18, 2011’s Clicks of the Day!

(disclaimer: content fluctuates depending on how busy my day was, lol.)

• City and Katz Group Agree on Agreement Framework to Build Arena

Wowzah! Huge announcement made late Wednesday night! Looks like the downtown arena is moving forward.

• Nathan Fillion heads home to Edmonton for Theatresports anniversary

Hooray! One of my favourite actors returning to Edmonton!

• Postal strike could leave Canada without mail service next week

Ruh roh! Good thing I online bank.

• Google announces new Chromebook.

Interesting, and I love Google, but no way is this going to make me ditch my iPad!

• The ultimate map of newspapers around the world

This map is so interesting! Would be interesting to take a snapshot of the map / how many newspapers there are right now and look back 5 years… 10 years from now.

• Say hello to Encyclo, our new encyclopedia of the future of news

Tacking onto the previous click – check out this new and impressive encyclopaedia on some of the important forces of media and journalism in our world today!

• PSN hacked again, 2 days after coming back online.

This is just sad! Both because these hackers keep insisting on messing with beloved PlayStation, but also because PlayStation needs to get some better programmers to avoid this kind of thing from happening… again!

• Harper appoints three failed failed candidates to Senate

Oh I see.

• Nearly 10 Years After 9/11, United Airlines Reinstating Flights 93 and 175

Would you fly on those flights?

• 10 years later, Apple’s “crazy” retail gamble is a hit

To this day one of the shiniest, cleanest, whitest stores I’ve ever been in. Hehe.

• After vajazzling comes pejazzling

This is an unfortunate trend.

• The secret life of a resume

This is an interesting read! Ever wonder what happens once you submit your resume to a company? CNN takes a look!

• Apocalypse now: Why people are attracted to doomsday scenarios

A good read if you believe in doomsday scenarios or if you’re just wondering why others do!

• American man eats 25,000th Big Mac

Barf.

• Jilted bridge in China jumps out window

Holy cow! I would not do this, even if I was left at the alter.

Poor giant crabs didn’t stand a chance.

Outer space continues to amaze us.

This was just a nice read today because I’m feeling extremely sore after my first slow pitch game (ever)!

I love infographics and apparently, so does the rest of the world! :)

Even if it did work, I wouldn’t want to know!

This is bizarre and hilarious. I wonder if anyone in Edmonton is taking part in the planking trend? That would be a fun story to do!
