Universal because its content was used without permission. On the one hand, fair enough - it's their content after all. On the other hand, nobody's seeing their content.

Race row rocks Open | Herald Sun: A VIOLENT clash between rival Serb and Croat supporters has rocked the opening day of the Australian Open at Melbourne Park. Violence at the tennis, eh. Something to remember next time someone claims that it's only football fans who are hooligans.

... 'We're being left behind and we'll pay for it,' he warned.
Tokyo Plastic (flash). Pretty (yeah that's it). Have a look at 'music box' under 'bits and pieces'.
UnitedVisualArtists - Volume at the V&A. Awesome installation. Absolutely awesome. I'd love to see this set up to use the EQ off MP3 players - let random people plug in their ipods...

@Matt: it came across as a new cottage industry (with strong overtones of sweatshop). Apparently the staffers can "specialise" and pick up searches for topics they know well. So Metalheads answer metal posts, patchwork quilters get quilting searches...
