Bruce Sterling On The Evolution Of “Blogs” Into “Flow”

Bruce Sterling writes in his Beyond The Beyond blog : If blogging is like being beaten to death with croutons, twittering is like being eaten away by a sandstorm.
I’m with Sterling on this one - not because I’m smart but because it’s so fucking obvious.

Blogs are a transitional medium built on a highly unstable platform. […]

Justice Music Video - “DVNO” - Smells Like Cutural Zeitgeist

Brands. Titles. Flying Logos. Craft. Art. Music. Culture. Where we came from. Where we are. What we are. And where we’re going. Zeitgeist.

.
Cheers.

Stupid Monkey Virus Things

Yeah - I’m in that frame of mind today.
Stupid ass dumb fucktard monkeys.

.
And, yeah, I know - I’m one of them.
Cheers.
P. S. Okay - this is what happens when I take a moment to go trolling through the intertoobs and that’s when I come up with shit like this:
The Earth is growing.
Uh-huh.
WTF?
I know […]

Blue Gold: World Water Wars

Suddenly I feel very thirsty:

You can find out more at their web site.
Cheers

TRON Sweded

The cardboard Star Wars swede was priceless. The big dog robot swede was snorkingly funny. This is fucking brilliant. TRON - Sweded:

Found it on Gizmodo. Thanks.

Net Neutrality In Canada

Michael Geist has posted on how the recent clusterfuck with Bell (throttling P2P traffic on ISP resellers) is bringing into the light the issue of Net Neutrality and Free Speech in Canada.
He makes a good point that we’ve been hearing most of the shouting about Net Neutrality from south of the border but nary a […]

Bell Canada Caught Throttling & Filtering YOUR ISP’s

The interwebs are buzzing about Bell Canada caught throttling ISP traffic - controlling the flow of information over not just their own pipes but also traffic on reseller ISP’s - just because they think they own the net.
Fuckers.
Those independent ISP’s who offer unlimited net traffic to their customers? The ones we flock to because […]

Bert & Ernie Go BRUTAL

I found this on Wiley Wiggins blog - and felt like I had to post something today - so this is it:

.
Cheers.

Legion Of Decency

It’s not what you think. This Legion Of Decency is a great blog run by Jim Henshaw and it provides some of the most insightful harangues about the Canadian Film and Television industry you are likely to find online. It is comparable to mark Achtenberg’s Musings & Contradictions and Jill Gollick’s Running With […]

Elephant Paints Self-Portrait

This is video of an elephant, rescued from abusive treatment in Burma, painting a self-portrait.
We’ve seen animals, such as elephants and gorillas and others, paint pictures - some are sold to raise money for various animal welfare organizations.
It’s cute.
It almost always elicits responses such as: “Oh, look, it’s almost like what my little child […]

Ze Frank - Twitter Colour Wars

Okay - this is all Jill Gollick’s fault.
Actually, it’s Jill’s fault, Ze Frank’s fault and Twitter’s fault and everybody else’s fault except mine.
I’ve joined Twitter - and I’ve joined the VeryGreenTeam.
Jill told me about Ze Frank’s announcement of starting a Colour War on Twitter. So, of course, I just had to go check it […]

Tim Berners-Lee Rejects Net Tracking

Here’s a great BBC interview with Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of the world wide web, and how he is opposed to attempts to have ISP’s track users’ behaviour on the web.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee told BBC News he would change his internet provider if it introduced such a system.
Plans by leading internet providers to use Phorm, […]

Arthur C. Clarke - Last Words

I’ll let him do the talking.

.
I wrote earlier on how his work touched me - you can read that here.
Cheers.

New Math

I have, from a young age, been a fan of Tom Lehrer and can sing (badly) almost all of his songs. Fortunately for you he exists to do it better. And here is a YouTube video that uses the audio track of one of his clever ditties, New Math. A great introduction […]

The Only Thing Guns Are Good For - Biggles

A great music video, from someone named Biggles, I found on LiveLeak which is described there as:
Music for our Generation, this could be the future, Enjoy.

Cheers.
