  Re: LEGO-related blogs?
 
(...) I see a bit of LEGO-related stuff here, but also have to give it extra points just for the Kids In The Hall reference. :) (...) I like the look/layout of this one.

  Re: "Ads by Goooooogle" at Brickshelf?
 
(...) Mine aren't in Swedish, unless I'm greatly mistaken about what Swedish looks like... :-) Not that I see any conspiracy necessarily, just good use of public info. (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) Hmmmm. Their AdSense pages only seem to mention page content in regards to ad targetting, but it's not very detailed. It's possible it may also have access to HTTP request information, which it may be able to use to target ads too. ROSCO (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)

(...) At a guess, your browser submits some limited information about you that google's using. What OS you're running, what language you prefer, your IP address, what browser you're using. I also wouldn't be suprised if some browsers out there spat (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)

  "Ads by Goooooogle" at Brickshelf?
 
I'm a little concerned about the boxes with "Ads by Goooooogle" that shows in my browser at Brickshelf and other sites. As they make ads with Swedish topics, there seems to be some kind of intelligence behind them(?), targeting the ads in a creepy (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Cool new Lego sculptures at ToysRUs.... Wait a minute, is that?!?!?
 
(...) Well, I can't speak with any certainty of Mega Blocks parts, since I have NO idea what they make one way or the other.... But I CAN tell you that Lego doesn't use non standard parts (well, not anymore). The last year I was at the park, the (...)

  Re: Cool new Lego sculptures at ToysRUs.... Wait a minute, is that?!?!?
 
(...) Was it this one by any chance? (URL) can't tell from the picture what the non-released parts might be, but I'll take your word for it. I was in NYC in February 2002 but I can't remember the displays all that well. A big dragon is the only (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Nice photo. The warrior is new style, but that TRU had a life-size bronze knight sculpture from the first wave of Dragons (2002). When I saw it, my first thought was: just like Lego, they've built it entirely from parts that have never been (...) (21 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
