Links: 9/10

1) Zing: The Governator lands a jab at ex-Governor Palin on Twitter.

2) Do Evil!: Apparently, this is the slogan of Zynga, the company that makes the ever-popular Farmville application.

Also, an interesting comparison between Farmville users and real farmers.

3) Another Zing: This one from an unlikely source: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

4) Next Generation in Printing: Introducing 3D printing.

5) Cats Gone Wild: 100 cats are unleashed into a London Ikea store.

7) Awkward: A Chinese diplomat offers a drunken toast. Awkward moments ensue.
