Here’s a crazy, awesome stop motion advert for UK based online magazine The First Post.

Ben Folds Covers Such Great Heights
This isn’t the best cover of my second favorite Postal Service track, but Ben gets lots of points for inventiveness. Dropping an s-bomb where there wasn’t one before sort of amuses me too…

The Upcoming A.V. Club
Leonard just tipped me off to a couple of really awesome new features on Upcoming:
- Any link to an mp3 now embeds an audio player — the nifty, lightweight 1 Pixel Out Flash player — into the page. [example]
- Links to YouTube videos embed the video into the page. The site does all the heavy lifting for you. [example]
Great work guys! I hope I didn’t steal anyone’s thunder by posting this here tho…

Crazy, but bad ass 1300mAh rechargeable batteries that get their juice from a USB port.

Lovely! This will come in handy later.

This time he “embedded” a British phone booth across the street from Philippe’s. No use in going to see it tho as it’s apparently already been removed.

No Sympathy For The Record Industry
Brendon Lloyd has done a scathingly funny letter from the RIAA to an alleged illegal downloader for McSweeney’s that’s really worth reading. Check it out:
This is your notice that you will be sued for one of the following:
- Downloading a song from the Internet.
- Singing the “Happy Birthday” song.
- Other.
- None of the above.
If you would prefer not to be stripped of your home and dignity, please send us $3,750 in the return envelope. If your toddler has been named in this lawsuit, explain to them that the fruits of their labor as an adult will go to pay a debt that will ultimately lead to their death at a young age due to their inability to afford medical insurance. Toddlers never understand that, but they’ll get the point if you make them cry. If your household pet has been named in this lawsuit, it will be euthanized.

Scheduling Conflicts
It’s no secret that I loves me some “Gilmore Girls“. So while I’m excited to see the show come back, I’m also sad that I have to make a choice between it and “House” as of next week.
I guess BitTorrent and my brother’s roommate’s TiVo will have to fill in the blanks for me…

Direct proof of why Wikipedia is the greatest fucking site on the internet. The level of detail on this article is damn near staggering.

Might be handy if I decide to get into the habit of podcasting.

BitTorrent finally gets some of that classic David Watanabe polish.

Hey, I know that dude! Congrats on the interview, eecue.

Had Randy not pointed out that Nick Frost and Simon Pegg were doing a video blog for their new film “Hot Fuzz”, I’d have been oblivious. Danke!

The White Stripes Vs Bart Simpson
As always, YouTube picks up the slack to show me the bits of TV I wish I hadn’t missed. While it’s nice to see Meg and Jack doing a clever little cameo, I can’t help but think this feels a little too much like a Family Guy style tangent for me to call it genius. *shrug* Whatev.
