This is War. FirstWorldWar.Com. With propaganda posters, vintage audio, video and footage. It sucks – and nevertheless is a great website to browse. Unfortunately. Because without a WWI, there wouldn’t be a website dedicated to this crap.

Modern Technology. The Falkirk Wheel. This thing is amazing. It sits in the Scottish landscape like some forgotten prop of a Star Wars movie. Only it’s for real, and it works.
The Falkirk Wheel is the world’s only rotating boatlift and is used to connect the Forth & Clyde and Union canals in central Scotland.
Websites are here and here (the last one is an awkward Flash site). Thanks to David Taylor for the link.
Update: Armin has some amazing pictures of the wheel on his World Tour of Scotland website. He also pointed me to the official website.
