Spider Versus Space Shuttle Atlantis

This was rather interesting. During a live camera feed showing the space shuttle Atlantis on Nasa TV, a large spider appears to be attacking the space shuttle. Thankfully, he didn’t cause any damage and was properly exterminated.

Human Tetris

I thought this was a well done video complete with sound effects and everything.

TETRIS played by real human-beings sitting in an auditorium: TETRIS is the 4th video performance of the GAME OVER Project, directed by the Swiss artist Guillaume REYMOND (NOTsoNOISY creative agency). This stop-motion video was shot and played for “LES URBAINES” festival www.urbaines.ch at the Palais de Rumine (Lausanne, Switzerland) on November 24th 2007. You can find also SPACE INVADERS, PONG and POLE POSITION on our website www.notsonoisy.com/gameover

Get A Mac Misprint

Recently, PC World did a piece on how the fastest notebook to run Windows Vista was a Macbook Pro. Since that article has made it into the public, the Apple marketing department has jumped all over the opportunity to cash in on the review.

If I were Microsoft, I’d get Apple off my back and disable any way for an Apple based machine to run Microsoft software, including anything in a virtual environment. Microsoft can’t run Mac software, but Mac can run Microsoft software. Someone needs to pimp slap Steve Jobs.

Pop Goes The Web2.0 Bubble

This came across the feedreader the other day but only now am I getting the time to post it. This is a hilarious Web 2.0 video with a catchy tune. It basically highlights all of the discussion that has taken place about the web 2.0 bubble. I laughed so hard when they showed the valuation of Facebook and it was almost as much as Ford.

TechSoup Episode 6

This episode of TechSoup covers HellishHolidays, a site that showcases some of the worst moments during the holiday. TripIt, a travel planning website. Facebook removing the word “IS” from the status updates and finally, a plug for Chris Brogans new video blog called AttentionUpgrade. Chris Brogan is one hell of a brand. Just about anything this guy does, people love.

Mr T World Of Warcraft Commercial

Here is a recent video clip highlighting the new World Of Warcraft commercial featuring Mr. T. You know, that guy who was part of the A-Team and Hulk Hogan’s tag team partner way back when. At any rate, I thought this was hilarious.

Night Elf Mohawk!

Matt Dickman Explains AjAX

Matt Dickman, host of a self produced series called MarketingProfs has created a video which explains what the term AjAX means. Not only does he give you the definition of the term, but he explains how it works using an easy to understand real-world example. I thought it this may be helpful to anyone out their who still doesn’t understand the concept of AjAX.

Steve Ballmer On Search And More

This is a video clip of John Battelle asking Steve Ballmer questions relating to search. Steve describes search the way he and Microsoft sees it. In his outline of a successful search strategy, he pretty much describes the way Google does it. Go figure! It’s an interesting interview that goes beyond search. For example, John asks Steve if they are making money through their deal with Facebook.

CommenTag Promo Video

Here is a promo video I found on YouTube for CommenTag.org A service that lets you organize the discussions on your blog, otherwise known as comments. The system looks like it will be interesting to use and will be in private beta on January 1st, 2008 Midnight GMT.

There is very little info in regards to the company on their own website. At any rate, the thing that is stopping me from using something like this, or DisQus or any of those other commenting system replacements is that, I’ll have to start over. Unless you guys know of a system that integrates with what I already have so I don’t lose all of the comments that are already published on the blog, I’ll be sticking with what I have.
