So one interesting thing about seeing the press go out is to seeing articles or blogs written in foreign languages. Firefox decides to format characters that it does not recognize as being installed on my computer as question marks. I get a kick out of seeing text that looks like this (which evidently needs a japanese language pack):
imeem ????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????imeem ????????? P2P ??????????????????
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Blog??????IM??????????????????????????????????????imeem ????????????????????????? AES ????????
?? CEO ? Dalton Caldwell ??????????????????imeem ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
When I glance at it, it seems like I am reading an email from someone that is very, very, very confused about something. Like, confused to the point of flipping out and holding down the "?" key on the keyboard while yelling.
If I were designing that software, I probably would have picked something besides a question mark for foreign characters.
