The Worst Observation in Internet History - Urlesque

I have to thank Cherie for the link. The Worst Observation in Internet History - Urlesque Can you believe in the early days of the World Wide Web, people were civil and respectful to each other? Really. It's true. We had to independently verify this clip (found while researching this "What Is Internet" compilation ) to confirm its authenticity -- so blown away were we at the sea change between then and now. Enough rambling. I (less than) proudly present:

It really put the movie into another context that actually made me want to see it. Its all about the attitude you go into it with on how disgusting it is.

Color-Coded Plastic Ties Tell You Day Your Bread Was Baked

Image
Color-Coded Plastic Ties Tell You Day Your Bread Was Baked : Turns out that the plastic tags and twists on loafs of bread aren't just for looking pretty, they are coded to indicate what day the bread was baked on, writes Wise Bread . The most commonly-used code for 5-day a week delivery is is blue for Monday, green for Tuesday, red for Thursday, white for Friday, and yellow for Saturday. It's a nifty 'and now you know' factoid, though it probably won't save you from getting a stale loaf, because the shelf stockers for whom the code was designed are already doing that for you.

Actors in Character - Now That is Acting! There's no denying the fact that most of us have pretended to be actors. Photographer   Howard Schatz   took this idea one step further, place actors in a series of roles and dramatic situations to reveal the essence of their characters.

Charlie Brooker on Gadaffi

Charlie Brooker on Gadaffi : Charlie Brooker's commentary on Gadaffi's erratic atrocities -- and the western leaders who've kissed up to him over the years -- from last week's Ten O'Clock Live is some of the most nose-milk-spurting material ever aired. I wish that all of Ten O'Clock Live's clips were on YouTube, as it would be amazing blogfodder -- the show is better than The Daily Show most weeks, IMO (I've asked, C4 say their lawyers won't let them because there are got clips of the BBC, Sky, etc, which is some pretty weird fair dealing analysis).

Motorola Xoom rooted in two hours flat, sinister transforming exoskeleton jetpack returns in Verizon ad

Motorola Xoom rooted in two hours flat, sinister transforming exoskeleton jetpack returns in Verizon ad : " What's the first thing you're going to do with your Motorola Xoom ? If you're Koush , the answer's clear -- install your very own ClockworkMod recovery image and ROM Manager, and grant the latter superuser permissions. That's right, on the very day of release, the Motorola Xoom's all but ready for custom builds of Android and all the joy they bring. Meanwhile, Verizon's decided to bring us the latter half of the abruptly cut Xoom TV ad, which actually differs significantly depending on whether or not Spanish is your primary language. Either way, it's a fairly sordid affair, with no Iron Man feats of stratospheric skill to be found, merely a quick demonstration of gaming with the accelerometer and a few quick swipes through Honeycomb. You'll still watch it if we tell you it's after the break though, won't you? Continue reading Mo...

Consumers more likely to buy Android devices than iPhone according to survey

Image
Consumers more likely to buy Android devices than iPhone according to survey : According to research firm Market Force Research , the average consumer in the US is now more likely to buy an Android device than the iPhone. A survey conducted by the firm found that 34% of respondents planning to buy a smartphone are looking for Android devices and 21% are looking for the iPhone. A mere 12% have eyes on a Blackberry for their next smartphone. Of all the survey respondents about 21% didn’t know what smartphone they were going to buy. The firm also found that 51% of consumers have a smartphone and of those that don’t, 33% plan to buy one in the next six months. Only 6% of those that responded plan to purchase a phone without data access. “With the Verizon-Apple partnership in motion, we anticipated that more consumers would be moving to the iPhone, so it intrigued us to see the sizeable shift toward the Android,” said Janet Eden-Harris, chief marketing officer for Market Force. “Some of our...

You probably won’t find it there anymore, as this is from 2008. I know it’s old news, but this thing mesmerizes me every time I “discover” it, so I might as well post it here.
