Elsewhere on Wired:

*	Wired's Kevin Axline has your Valentine's day guide to [winning the heart of your Flickr crush][4], along with some hilarious recommendation and photographs. We at Monkeybites are of the opinion that there's a good chance your Flickr crush is actually some sort of art/sociology project designed to mess with your head and create an online persona similar to lonelygirl15 -- especially if your crush happens to be the [preternaturally talented Miss Aniela][5]. Of course we've been wrong once or twice.

*	Which reminds me, I've been meaning to say this for some time: Flickr is the new MySpace. OMG!


*	Anyway. Table of Malcontents wins today's best title (they always win best title, damn them) for this ditty: [Parasitology of Blogging][6]. "In the sea of the internet, blogging is a million lampreys sucking on the bloated cephalopod of a giant squid feeding upon the tiny Nautilus of a single unique thought." Yup, that about covers it.

*	Talk about getting screwed, 27B Stroke 6 reports that travel author Edward Hasbrouck was invited to attend the aviation security summit in Washington yesterday, paid his own way, sat quietly in the back and was then [ejected][1] because his name tag read: Author. Wired reporter Bob Usselman was [barred at the door][2] along with the rest of the press.

*	Cult of Mac has a [hands on review][3] of the new Airport Extreme -- sounds pretty sweet.
