A Firefly MMO has been announced, although it appears to be exclusively for mobile phones.  Will be interesting to see what it’s like, but it may be too late. 

A great ad campaign which uses national flags.  Very well done.

A mash-up I didn’t expect to see:

John Williams has come on board to score Star Wars: Episode VII.

What if the Internet was laid out like a galaxy?  Check it out here.

It has some strong language (deservedly so), but the best response yet to Orson Scott Card comes from Harvey Fierstein.

Can Richard Simmons stay still for 60 seconds?

The new trailer for the next Hunger Games movies is here.

I was never into the boy bands the first time around, but I kind of like this song, maybe it’s a weird reverse nostalgia thing:

Amazing “get well soon” wishes….to roadkill.

The best (or worse) drinking game ever?

Okay, one more video, this amazing thing happened:

That’s it for now, have a great one!



Alright, update for everyone, heavy on the videos, but I hope you enjoy them all:

First up, a fan-made trailer for a Mega Man movie.  It takes a while to pick up, but not bad for less than $1,000:

Scientists are working on new self-healing materials that use the energy from the sun to repair themselves, pretty amazing!

I just finished reading the Hunger Games Trilogy, and it was awesome, now I need to go see the movie.  In the meantime though, here is a trailer for The Hipster Games:

The NYT covers addictive digital games, pretty awesome.

Big stuff from Google with their augmented reality glasses, and the inevitable remake of it:

Also from Google, they’ve been working on using Street Maps technology in museums around the world, now they’ve shot the interior of the White House:

So…Santorum is crazy.  For a while, he was campaigning on a platform of outlawing porn.  I was talking with a friend this week, a speaker brought into her work place was also known for going on tirades about pornography.  And we all agree, it’s a case of “He who doth protest too much…”  But anyway, in response, porn stars (ahem, hard, ahem, working Americans who would be put out of work) came together to make a video in protest:

One of my favorite church signs, going viral:

And lastly, holy crap, you know people are stretching when they want to protest Desmund Tutu.  I saw him speak at my church, and the man is amazing and a living saint.  If you ever have the chance to listen to him lecture, please do, you will not regret it, I promise.

That’s it for now, thanks everyone, have a great one!
