Andy Looney enjoys writing stories exactly 55 words long and calls them Nanofiction. Well, Wired took the concept every further and asked a number of famous authors (mainly from Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Comics) and asked them to write 6 word short stories.

YouTube of the Week: Crisis of Infinite Retail Edition
15 minutes long detailing DC Comic’s Power Girl taking a day off and trying to find another career. Some good subtle DC references in there.
…And we're back! (But Nextwave isn't)
We were attacked by server ninjas but drove them off with server pirates. Or was it the other way around? Anyway, we’re back, and while we were down, I started to look at new graphical options for the site. In the process I discovered that you can press Ctrl + to increase the font size […]
