I hope you have a great time in Germany!
I live in Germany, and I like the sirens doing the Doppler Effekt.
In which Wil goes to Germany (updated)
The following was written about ten hours ago, on another continent. I thought I'd published it before I left, but it turns out I saved it as a draft, instead. Good times. I'm sitting in the lounge at LAX, waiting to board my flight to Heathrow. Sometime tomorrow afternoon, I'll end up in Germany...
Why do I have to think of Doctor Who's Weeping Angels?
"Stoned" (407) - Airs TONIGHT!
Zoe visits from college with juicy personal news, unconventional statues are turning up around town, Jo's excited about her new house, and a couple of our favorite characters go out on a romantic limb. For all that and even more surprises, tune in to Syfy TONIGHT, Friday August 20, 9pm/8 central...

Thanks for sharing this. It's a wonderful read in the morning.
How one redditor found happiness. This is just wonderful.
I came across one of the most wonderful things I've ever read in my life on Reddit this morning, penned by Redditor alukima, who shares some insights on finding happiness: I am not witty or interesting; I wont pretend to have anything profound to say. I am 26, female, divorced and spent most of...
Awesome! I was just trying to drink my afternoon coffee, but no way, it was not possible!
The Who's Baba O'Reily, played using only items from Think Geek.
I watched this while trying to drink my coffee this morning. I say "trying" because I just sat here with my mouth hanging open until the whole thing was over. This is pure brilliance. Anyway, it seems appropriate to share this as I'm going out the door to start work on The Big Bang Theory: ...
Another rec:
My sister always recommends Philip Jose Farmer's "Riverworld" series - I've only read the first book so far - but it's great with many historic figures showing up!

A few of you raised very good suggestions that I just had to add to my list and that got me thinking about even more...guess this is going to be an on-going process... so please leave a comment or Twitter me your thoughts! Doctor Who and The Horror of Fang Rock by Terrance Dicks As random as th...
Doctor Who = <3
Bet fans will send you now tons of Doctor Who books, if anyone could bear giving them away! ;)
MicroSerfs was one of the funniest books I've ever read. I even wrote once a linguistic paper inspired by one quote from the book!
From other book recs, I'd say Stephen Fry's Making History. It's a clever time-travel-with-huge-consequences story, including killing Hitler.

Great list! I also love Darren Shan's books. I've read the whole first saga, and every time someone comes to me with OMG HAVE YOU READ THIS XY VAMPIRE NOVEL, I recommend the Darren Shan-saga to them, because they're real vampires. ;)
"Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell" is on my reading list, I have started but never finished it because I had to give it back. Have to get the English edition one day, I really hate German translated books (which is almost unavoidable when you're living in Germany and the local library has only a small amount of English books).
Great Geek Books for Nerds!
Hello all, A number of questions about my reading habits came up this weekend at the fabulous Chevron 7.4 event in Birmingham. In true geek senility I just couldn't remember the names or authors for many of these! So in a bid to save face...after the fact I've compiled a list of titles that I t...
Merry Christmas to you, Wil! Have a happy 2010!
Christmas Wishes from Steve Martin, and Me, Wil Wheaton
Steve Martin has a Christmas wish to share with you: (If you can't see Hulu videos, or just want the audio, YouTube has you covered. It's a Christmas miracle!) And here's my holiday wish, which isn't nearly as funny, but is at least (if not more) sincere: Whatever you choose to celebrate t...
I have my copy of "Hyperspace" lying next to me, and I even started to take notes while reading. It's so much more interesting than what I actually do at university (English/American Studies undergrad).
It bugged me when I wrote (or thought of) a science-fiction story that uses some more higher advanced stuff than I've learned in high school/saw on television, and I couldn't explain within the story the science,now it's at least a "dumbed down" version ;) But I also like do further reading. (" Elizier Yudkowsky's Quantum Physics sequence" sounds interesting.)
You just keep on trying, until you run out of cake.
Yesterday, I wrote: Well, the power just went out, so it's time for me to pack up my Mac and head out to a cafe with WiFi where I can work on my novel in front of people and get this posted. The weird thing is, while it's likely going to take an hour at least from the time I finish writing this...
