Again and Again!

Got this from Tom Merrit's Twitter Feed. Just watch. Especially the Mac Haters!
[and the mac lovers, sorry to say you may want a Mac Pro for this]



For the people who can't load the video, I'll just depict it for you. It's a user-generated music video of a song by 'Bird! Bee!', called "Again and Again'. This person made use of applications on her mac and created a screen capture out of all that. that's the basic gist of the video. She used the iSight camera, Microsoft Office, Spaces, iChat, Dictate, Stickies, Photoshop, Illustrator, Finder, Quick Look, iTunes, Screensavers, Time Machine, Dashboard widgets, Safari, iPhoto [yeah], Final Cut Express, just to name a few apps and technologies in a Mac.

Potential 'Get a Mac' ad? I think so too.

why my blog's better than yours.



BenSee: You blog is failing at 2.0-ness.

firstly, I would like to say that my blog is very web 2.0. VERY.

Look.

  1. Who has his twitter feed by his sidebar? Twitter is one of the winners of the WebWare 100, which is a user-voted award for the best web2.0 stuff!
  2. Who makes polls? That's user interaction. That's Web2.0.
  3. Who adds imeem and seqpod, which are WEB2.0 Apps? Adding music to a blog is the same as having 'services' catered to the viewer/user. that's WEB2.0.
  4. tagboard, needless to say, is also userinteraction. same as number 2.
  5. I often add youtube videos as posts for my blog... Same as number 1, Youtube is a Webware 100 winner.
  6. Yahoo Answers!, Flickr. These are Web 2.0 social networks, and I intergrated them to my blog. Web 2.0 is about intergration, the convergence of people online! And I even do my own 'networking' by adding tons of links!
  7. del.icio.us is a Web 2.0 app, needless to say.
  8. My blog is way more leet than your pathetic, depressing blog, whoever you are, unless your blog is called the Collosal Celestial Waste of Bandwidth. [don't click if u're low on RAM.] or Dvorak.org/blog, or Fake Steve.
There. 8 reasons, all of which are very valid. So slam me!

by the way, something off-topic:
YAY! 333 posts [excluding this one] to go before I reach collosal stage!

and another 9333 posts before We hit the big 10,000 [Celestial stage!]. Let's see if Google will still host my blog by then... [thanks Google!]

Movies I want to watch this summer.

By summer, I mean May - August 2008.

Let the list begin!

[Ideas courtesy of ROTTEN TOMATOES]

1. Mamma Mia! The Movie
Starring Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgard, Julie Walters, Amanda Seyfried, Dominic Cooper, Christine Baranski. Based on the smash hit musical.
2. Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull
It's Indiana Jones! And besides, everyone's been waiting 18 years for a sequel.

3. Get Smart
Huge array of stars [Anne Hathaway, Steve Carell, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson] with the plot of a secret agent as dumb as Johny English [Rowan Atkinson]. Too familiar, but still cool in my book...

4. Wall-E
A Pixar film of a robot who lives alone making [rubiks] cubes out of rubbish. [jk.] It's as if Pixar has returned to their roots of wacky stories nobody ever thought of. Fascinating stories. Just like Wall-E.

5. Kung Fu Panda
Jack Black as a lazy panda, trying to learn Kung Fu from a bunch of animals. Seriously.

Others that almost made the Top 5:
6. The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian
7. The Dark Knight
8. What Happens In Vegas
9. Iron Man
10. Speed Racer

Talk about elections...

[Heroes fans should know this by now... it's quite an old thing, but anyway, if you don't,]


No. Really, vote!
