May 16 Blow Your MindAndrea sent me this link today.
It uses shockwave to present images in no other way I've ever seen. "Information" is my favourite (first link on that page) May 04 MY SPACES BUTTON IS BACK!Thank GOD!
I switched to another passport account and back to my regular one and the button showed up! (along with the stupid banners on the side) but hey can't win em all.
So I hope to do a bit more blogging as time rolls on. April 28 Pilate Was AWESOMESaw Piliate last night in Waterloo after winning passes on chartattack.com. The Starlight Lounge is a small, but really funky place. They brought thier own sound system and sound guy and without a word of a lie the mix was the best I've heard at any concert. The Dude also agreed. They played a lot of tracks from thier new album and opened up with a fantastic version of Knife Grey-Sea (Andrea's fav track btw, but she had to hear the first minute or so from the bathroom, bad beat there.). They played some old stuff as well and changed it up. Into your hideout was fantastic and fresh. The ended with It's Alright and added a verse at the end (from what I rememeber) that was just Todd playing and singing. If I was in London this weekend I'd go see them again tonight in a heartbeat. If you can buy tickets at the door (they had it last night at our venue) I would STRONGLY suggest doing so. I didn't bring my cam because I thought I'd be too far back. I was wrong, but i didn't have a clean view anyways and the lighting blew nuts. For those that are heading to the London show tonight, enjoy because it's going to be f'in' fantastical. March 07 Cat Hits HammerAlright... Not sure why but this vid made me laugh really really hard. Tears ran down my face. Quote Cat Hits Hammer February 09 Crazy Things That People InventAnd by crazy I mean amazing.
Andrea sent me this link today and it's of this touch screen that support pressure and multiple touch points.
I'm not gonna lie, click here to view this thing and be amazed (i know i was) January 10 *OooOoo Guh GuHH GUUUUUHHHH* Aaaaaaand I'm done.Fucking Apple. What do I say outloud when I first heard about Intel in Mac... Here let me tell you: "I'm going to hold out until they release the 15" powerbook with the intel processor before I buy a Mac".
Now with a little back story from the rumour mill stating that the Mac Mini and iBook were first on the list. Damn was that SO not true. Now it stares at me... In it's silver glory... Fucking thing.
Oh, and for funzies Apple also thought that showing thier Intel Ad would be an awesome way to bring it out with a bang, and bang they got. Seriously, the ad crashes your browser... FireFox, IE, ANYTHING and if you clicked that link you'll know what I'm talking about.
So while I walk around with this e-boner until my wallet doesn't look like Lindsay Lohan anymore, I shall watch forums and drool over pictures of the impossible dream. (or until some cheeky bastard hacks an intel OSX for us PC desktop kids that has native ATI graphics support) January 03 Trailer Park Boys: The MovieOh fuck yeah boys (and girls if you like) this summer we get a new Trailer Park Boys movie! They have a site up for it with a teaser CLICK THIS BIG FUCKING LINK TO GO TO THE TRAILER PARK BOYS MOVIE SITE *whew*
Anyways Scott Southward gave me the bug that they were making a movie so with my fantastic internet skills I went and found the site for the movie.
Got me laughing a couple of times, but Scott made a good point in that they better not keep all the funny shit for the movie and fuck us all over on season 6. I'll be happy if Bubbles just cries less, other than that season 5 was pretty good (I think season 2 or 3 are my favs so far knowwhattimsayin'?!)
Anyways April and the Summer of '06 is already shaping up to be pretty fucking sweet. December 15 The Power of ... 5?!I have no idea if this is a joke or not, but Gillette has come out with The Fusion. 5 blades and a 6th on the backside of the cartridge to do your sideburns or shape your beard. I think that's a neat idea because trying to do that with the other style makes like a gradient of stubble.
Check out The Fusion. December 13 Happy News Only?! happynews.comI was sent this yesturday from a co-worker. It's a news site that only reports on happy news or news that makes you feeeel goood.
Thought others would like to check it out instead of other pooptastic political mombo jombo. December 08 ChrismahaunquamsikaHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Ok can't type... Just dial this number 1-888-353-7667 Virgin Mobile is fucking funny. Robosapien V2Robosapien is back and he's bigger and better than the first. I mean look at his knuckles!! He can also see in colour... How sweet is that... Here is the product snip from the site:
Robosapien has evolved - 2 feet tall, more moves, more attitude, more functions, and more fun! It has an "Advanced Colour Vision System" for object recognition, an infrared radar for avoiding and picking up objects. He has "Targeting Technology" to follow a path you trace out, can talk about himself in English, has changing moods. He is fully programmable and can have new personlalities either via the remote or from PC downloads. He can even play with other Robosapien toys.
Looks like he'd be fun to play with and to give the Roboraptor a sweet little back-slam. Then I'd grow tired of him, but Chris wouldn't! December 07 Drunk SantaGot sent Drunk Santa today. I had to put it down since I wasn't getting any work done. At the time of writing this my high score is 1033. It gets hard when they put the booze on the tracks. This game is not only an accurate depiction of what can happen when you mix alcohol with train tracks, but also supports a sweet soundtrack and a fantastic set of sound effects. Christmas House Plays a Christmas SongYeah I'm too lazy to go look for the oringinal one, but here is the Christmas one for you all to enjoy. December 05 Formerly Macromedia *sniff*Well that's it kiddies. Macromedia is no more and it will now be Adobe Flash and all that other jazz. 3.4 billion bucks and Adobe pretty much owns the entire product line that is used to create anything on the web. Wow. (unless you use front page. If so you're probably 6 years old or have a web teacher that's 400 years old)
I'm looking forward to see how Adobe brands the products and where they take it. I'm going to suspect that a lot of the After Effects stuff is going to make it into the next version of Flash (ie. MotionMath).
Well Macromedia is was a good ride and I hope all your execs are buying sweet houses and fancy sports cars! November 29 Cartoon BonesJust a quick update Ramsay just sent me this page and I thought I would share it with everyone. Some guy draws skeletons of animated characters... I thought others besides him and I would enjoy it... So yeah... go have a look! Find more music that you like! Introducing Pandora.I often get in certian musical moods and usually only have 1 or 2 artists that reflect that. Well along comes Pandora. This bad boy will actually take the artist you type in and analyize speed, pitch, feeling and mood. I typed in Yann Tiersen and it came up with a band called "Scout Niblett" and I actually really like it.
(p.s. the next song just came on and it's an artist called "Mirah" *grin* Andrea if you are reading this that's way too wierd!) November 22 Photos of Michelle Ysebert via Amanda Gallant-TurnerI must admit that the title of this post was basically for search engines to pick it up and maybe spider over to the ellemusic site, but time will tell if that works!
Anyways, Amanda (Chris' g/f for those that don't know... and if you don't Chris he's my bro(ther) and sporting a pretty intense beard these days.
Yeah short and sweet since I'm working, but I gotta give props where props are due!
Oh and Amanda I know this will get back to you at some point, but I want to borrow that glowly orb thing as it takes some pretty sweet photos! I want to sit on it naked with a mirror below me to signify that the glowing eggs that I can lay reflect the world as we know it. That's some deep shit and the odds of me a) being naked on a glowing egg and b) finding a mirror that I could sit on without it smashing to a billion-kazillion peices is pretty damn slim. Not only that, but it sounds gay as shit.
So yeah, when I get around to it I'll post about The Adventures of Mango Man and Orange Lady, but to wrap up a weekend at work might make me feel a little guilty and since "the man" Rogers cut my ass off (for a good reason) I'm without net at home until Wednesday night :( November 14 I've got those good vibrations!Wow... Just received this link to the iBuzz which to say the least is an interesting little item. I'll let you click the link but if you are around work people you might want to wait until they've left.
I'd love to see how this sucker performs to Vanilla Ice's Havin' a Roni. Should be called Havin' an Orgy all over my fackin' iPod. More Free Google Stuff!This post is pretty geeky but if anyone has a website you might want to check out Google's Analytics. While being free this integrates with Adwords (another paid advertisment service by Google) to maximize your spending and to quickly understand what your visitors are doing.
I've added it to MX Projects so we'll have to see what happens in about 12 hours or so. The nice thing about the reports is that all the graphics and maps are done with Flash so they can make it look freakin' sweet while keeping the file size and server stress down.
I'm looking forward to messing with it a bit more and I'll probably get into the adwords program once I finish the 3rd version of my forum. |
