    Ha, cool. You can even copy and paste those off this page into an email or whatever (on a Mac anyways).

    Its Celsius not Celcius. The temperature degrees are named after a man that was called Celsius not Celcius…

    Nice – thanks for that one! About 7 years ago I saw an article written in HTML, and there was a huge smiley at the bottom. I was very much surprised that it was not an image, but HTML only and started to learn it :)
    Still – I never stumbled upon information how to create a smiley in HTML, and simply forgot about it. Now I know how to make the thing, which made me learn how to code :)

  7. Nice list… Should have included some more.

  8. nev says:
