I thought some people, especially the geeks here, might like my website on computer failures:  
Its a fun little distraction. If you have any funny screenshots, feel free to share them.

It’s your unlucky draw in the sites that are allowed to be referenced. To bad I was going to give it a look. It’s not like others sites that are not commercial endeavors don’t get mentioned and linked to. Maybe a Weird Earls submission will get a link. It sounds like the right type of page.
