An easily embedable chart-image creation tool, from Google
Yeah, it's fairly geeky, but if you need charts, this lets you get them easily. it's also awesome that they developed this for their spreadsheet and presentation online tools, and then set it 'free' in this way. Smart of them to realize the benefits of unbundling this functionality. When will they unbundle the spam protection of GMail?

Internet harassment law may protect suicide-prompting harasser
It's a little more complicated than this, but basically: an older lady may have goaded a 13-year-old girl into committing suicide. So her town passes a law to protect people from Internet harassment. Next, someone starts harassing the lady over the Internet about her role in the suicide, so the lady may be the first person protected by the law for which she was the inspiration.
