Tipping the hat
It's always fun to see companies reference other companies with which they work. VirtualBox is a software package that allows you run several different operating systems in their own virtual machines (like VMWare, Xen, etc). Their about box is great. They have the Suse Iguana (wearing a Red Hat), the Linux Penguin playing a tambourine emblazoned with the Ubuntu logo, the Microsoft "Butterfly," stars (alluding to Mandrake/Mandriva) rising from the fire, and the BSD Daemon eating a multi-colored Apple. No, VirtualBox can't boot OS X, but the apple is probably an allusion to Darwin, which I assume VirtualBox could boot, and upon which OS X is built. Did I miss any logos?

The Good Blogs
I'm giving this a trial run. Right now, I'm only promoting Tech, Business, Venture Capital, and Auto categories, so hopefully the content will be pretty clean. If you see something that would not be in line with my standards of "family friendly," please contact me at once, and send along the URL of the offending article.
