The video above just cracks me up. And no Alan, I’m not switching to cat diaries 24-7. I found this video while exploring rooms at Hive7. I walked through many doors and found some neat new stuff. I liked this virtual world. People tell me it’s like Second Life, but I don’t know much more [...]

01180020 Originally uploaded by everymosquito. It’s pronounced “RAY-zee-stunce”, and it’s making Apple very “UHN-ah-pee”. The French government has decided to open up all of the online music stores so that no one company can dominate France’s music download market. How unhappy is Apple? So much so that it has made a statement that the French [...]

one red paperclip Originally uploaded by kylemac. If it’s not on your radar already, it’s time for another crazy Internet story about someone with a wacky idea. This time it’s a gent from Montreal who started with a red paperclip, and his quest is to do “up trades” eventually trading for “a house, or an [...]

Microsoft is showing their self-deprecating side with a video that can now be confirmed that Microsoft actually created. The “iPod Box Parody Video”, follows another video entitled “Bill Gates Goes to College” that is available at ifilm. The “Napoleon Dynamite” parody was shown at PDC2005.

I grew up in a very safe town in central New York State. About the only danger we had was getting a blizzard that would dump 3 feet of snow and have 50 mph winds along with it (I experienced that a couple times). I never experienced those really dangerous things that are in everbody’s [...]

The Theater 435 class is having a great time. As evidence, I submit the above picture. Just a few of my favorite stories so far are of finding the van at Epcot, the subway ride, and the Philip Rose talk. You know, you teach “your” kids a few things about blogging, and you send them [...]

Flickr photo by Hagge. No this isn’t about how to fold your computer. At a staff meeting today, I casually mentioned that a device called an Internet Tablet (specifically the Nokia 770) was being tested by one of the UMW faculty in my building. Steve Gallik teaches a Histology class in the Jepson Science Center, [...]

In yet another chance to blog about some Google video, here is an entry at the College MovieFest site. You can also watch the QuickTime version. This movie and the concept of all the movies at CMF gives me yet another place to gobble up my free time. UPDATE!: The students in the “can drive [...]

You all remember Sony’s bouncing balls video right? Go take a look if you don’t. Anyway, I’m very conflicted by this video above. I’m reminded of the joy that I felt when seeing 250,000 colored super balls bouncing down a San Fransisco street. Though some might see a game advertisement, I see American soldiers in [...]
