The Loch Ness Monster on Google Maps: "Nessie on Google Maps

UK tabloid The Sun claim to have found the Loch Ness monster in the satellite imagery of Google Maps and Google Earth. If you click on the image above you can have a close look at the image directly in Google Maps.

I don't want to influence your view about this but The Sun also claimed in February to have found Atlantis on Google Maps. They claimed the lines in the image below were the walls of the lost city.

Friday X-Posting
Items recently shared on my Google Reader page include:

• A note about the baptist church picket George "the profane atheist" Carlin's funeral via the New Humanist.
• A reminder that Angle Season 1 is now on Hulu.com.
• A note about the Hartford Courant (America's oldest continuously published daily paper) cutting newsroom staff and number of pages devoted to news.
• A clip about the guy from the underappreciated "New Amsterdam" moving on to a new show that is apparently going to be a series of something's-gone-wrong-on-the-holodeck episodes of TNG via Sci-Fi News.
• And a nice little clip of one of Obama's advisors reducing Laura Ingraham to a demented harpy. Well, even more of a demented harpy than she normally is via News Hounds.

And on a personal note, I've got a bunch of pictures up at flickr of our day trip to Carver, MA where the littl'uns got to meet their favorite train.

Google Reader
Have I mentioned I've got a Shared Items list? There's a feed as well. I hardly ever surf around blogs anymore, just collect feeds, and it's so much easier to share a link by clicking 'share' than it is to blog it.

Does anybody else have one? Or know of any good ones?
