[yesthattom]

1. Webcams: Is everyone on the Internet naked?

2. PAM Modue for the UrinalMatic3000 (a good paper, but we don't want to go there)

3. What I learned about my ex-girlfriend from reading her Live Journal.

4. What I learned about my ex-boyfriend by analysing his webproxy logs.

5. A model for determining PC purchasing policy (written by that "Dude, you're gettin' a Dell" guy)

Apparently not everyone recognized it as a joke; see here for an example.
