Great opportunistic timing for whoever did this.
Finally, a website that caters to my beekeeping fetish.
I enjoyed checking it out, although it seems to be a very short loop.

On the topic of annoyances, we have white noise generators in our offices - these are terrible. I hunt them down and turn them off wherever they are nearby.

Apparently the thinking is that it is better for the entire environment to be noisy than for it to be library-quiet such that you can distinctly hear a conversation down the hall.

The fans in your servers? :-D

Yes!!

Is that what those gentlemen in shorts are doing at the Vuvuzela concerts?

"Hi we did a site with a very bad concept, we did it in an afternoon , to surf on a meme that seems to be expanding around very fast lately. It has a sleek web 2.0 design, no content, and most of the site space is taken by advertising and links to social media sites. At least it's a bit fun, for a few seconds"

Ha i'm just jealous i didn't have the idea myself ;)

I think it needs another Twitter button, Facebook has three after all. I'm also wondering how this got on Hacker News without a "share on HN" button.
glad my noise cancelling headphones don't cancel the vuvuzela :-)
Aside: ever since I started hearing about vuvuzela, my goal in life has been to play that word in Scrabble. Unfortunately, it's not in the OPSD4 or the TWL06. I hope this will soon be rectified.
1) Play word in Scrabble

2) When disputed, produce vuvuzela

3) Blast vuvuzela in disputer's face

4) Disputer concedes. You win.
