It started as a regular blog entry and now it seems one of most popular notes these days.
My old friend, Bergie has posted nine days ago, a short info about Jerry and his magnificent finger. I won't retype the story now, because it is not what I wanted to say. Check it yourself later :)
What I wanted to say is that you never know what you can do with your simple note. For what I read, Bergie just commented the fact that some futuristic, aesthetic surgery design has been made while our friend Jerry has it implemented for over a year. As usual it was posted on Bergie's blog with some links in common social communities like Jaiku, Qaiku, Facebook etc. After a day or two we found his note Slashdotted and spread around more and more blogs, news sites etc.
Today, I started my day with opening onet.pl - most popular Polish news portal (or rather whatever portal) and guess what I found in "Tech-news" section. Yes, you bet:
The highlighted item read: "USB memory instead of a finger". Almost sure what I could find there I followed the link and got this:

The article reads that Jerry's got a 2GB USB in his finger and the rest of story we know, but they added that Jerry now works on the second finger edition with extended storage and WiFi connectivity. And guess what... they're quoting BBC!!! So I expect tomorrow Jay Leno will visit Jerry to ask him for the show :)
You were warned. Be careful what you do coz you never know when you end up in CNN Headlines :)
