NYU Student Accidentally E-mails 40,000 Students with “Reply All,” A Wildfire of Lulz Ensues

New York University sophomore student Max Wiseltier started a wildfire of lulz yesterday when he accidentally hit “reply all” to a school-wide bulletin e-mail that was only meant to be forwarded to his mother. Triggered by the University’s archaic Listerv system, Wiseltier’s message was sent to nearly 40,000 other students in the mailing list, many of whom didn’t hesitate to have a little fun with their discovery of the “reply all” feature. For more hilarious screencaps, head over to BuzzFeed!

The capital city of the Philippines has been drenched by heavy, deadly rainfall for 11 days now, beginning with the arrival of Typhoon Saola last week, leading to mudslides and extensive flooding. About 60 percent of Manila is currently flooded, and authorities are reporting 72 deaths so far. Nearly 850,000 remain stranded or displaced, as residents wait for a break in the downpour, predicted to begin on Thursday.

This creative agency thinks it can redesign Wikipedia to be more usable, and it’s on to something (via Creative Agency Launches “Wiikipedia Redefined”)

But really, does Wikipedia need to be redesigned? It’s not the prettiest site on the internet, but unlike Craigslist, it’s easy to use in its current form. It feels like a great promotion for the creative agency, however. Thoughts?
