In the early days the Internet was believed to be the ultimate equaliser - the information super highway that would revolutionise the way we live. Because of the net,15-year-old boys no longer need to sneakily raid their father's secret Playboy collection anymore; instead they can get their pornographic fix electronically.
Likewise, lame 16-year-old girls all have the chance to get their 15 minutes by singing away on YouTube.
And now, any idiot with access to the Internet can project their messages to Gliese 581d, the nearest Earth-like planet outside our solar system.
Simply log on to www.hellofromearth.net , register, and you're one step closer to to pissing off aliens!
The deadline to submit messages is 2pm on Aug 24. Don't count on getting a reply any time soon though. Gliese 581d is 20.3 light years away and last time we checked, that's pretty far, even for troll/prima donna transmissions.
