Wow… Apple, time to “borrow” this for a new commercial. I love the part at the end where they show you how to buy the song on iTunes. Hilarious and clever.

The OS X desktop as music video.

A digital filmmaker named Dennis Liu has made an amazing video for The Bird And The Bee’s lovely song “Again & Again”. The set? His Mac desktop.

 An epic amount of work - mad respect.

Possibly my favorite Barely Political video ever.

I got the chance to talk to Gravel a bit during the shoot, dude’s a class act.

(via ryandestroys) “Zardoz,” what this is from, is actually a kind of good movie. Forget the fact it has a shirtless Sean Connery and a giant floating stone head with a wizard inside of it … there’s something magical about 70s sci-fi movies. There’s an odd, unmonitored oddness to them that you just don’t find very often in the mega-budget blockbusters that pollute the landscape of the future.

“ Remember when I drove past the theatre 2 days before Matrix 2 came out and a certain someone was sleeping on the sidewalk outside the box office like a god damn homeless idiot? Remember when someone stood in homemade Darth Maul boots for six hours waiting to find out who the fuck Darth Maul was? Remember when you stood up and cheered for the fucking Hulk Teaser right in front of me? RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME?! Well, you were wrong to be excited about all those things. And Sweeney Todd. But don’t take it out on the one thing I’ve looked forward to for three years.

$100 for his Xbox Live name, Dave.

“ McElhenney, Howerton and Day initially shot a pilot of [Always Sunny in Philadelphia] for $200 dollars on an AG-DVX100 and edited it on a home computer. (They claim that most of the $200 in expenditures went to pay for pizza and the cost of gasoline to drive to location shoots.) FX picked up the show and re-shot the pilot, again with the DVX100 (for a price, says FX, significantly higher than that of the original $200).
I love hearing stuff like this. Especially since “Always Sunny” is one of my favorite shows on TV.

Jesus, what an adorable little ball of puff. I mean, look at his little ears twitch! His little mouth! Good god Mr. Chatterbox, you’re the ultimate instrument of cute.

Then I read in the comment section, that little Guinea Pigs make this sound when they’re scared, and calling for their mom.

Suddenly, I felt heartbroken for the little guy. He’s so lonely, so concerned! A gut-wrenching twisteroo. Those little ears, now skittering with misery and panic … the tiny mouth, puckered in a gaping grimace of sorrow.

Chatterbox, I hope you’ve found solace by now.

I have five invites to Brightkite

caro:

I have five invites to the private beta of Brightkite, a wacky little location-based mobile service that seems to think it’s going to outdo both Twitter and Dodgeball. It was getting tossed around in San Francisco last week at the Web 2.0 Expo and it seems decent. Privacy controls are more extensive than Dodgeball, which is something that I think concerned a fair number of people outside the early-adopter geek set. I’m a big believer in location based-services (LBS) as the feature that will really set off mobile social-networking, but nobody’s gotten it right yet. We’ll see if this one takes off. I’m not sure it will. But who knows?

Normally when I have invites to give away I shoot an up-for-grabs message on Twitter, but most of the people I know on Twitter are based in the Bay Area. I would kind of like to test this out in New York, where it seems like Tumblr has more of a foothold (to say the least). So if you want one, reblog this with an e-mail address to which I can send an invite.

This will also be a strategy to see if there are actually five people reading this.

 I’m really interested in this tech … justinsuperstar@yahoo.com

I was always curious how much they were paying to cover the interior of a subway car…

Good Magazine investigates how much advertisers pay to populate NYC with ads.

I want to get a bus for a month! I wonder if they tell you where it will be going. It would just be a picture of me smiling with the text “Hey! I just spent $500!”
