Like I can come up a heading…

Online video is taking a whole new turn, what with GoogleVideo(for some reason they want you to submit your videos to them, scary thoughts are coming to mind), and now the viditorial.

Creative licensing is always going to be a problem in such cases, and the UK has shown the best way of preventing piracy, make it public, with a creative license. Its a good model, and solves a lot of problems.

Speaking of videos, this Mac ad can be construed in so many other ways; than simply being ‘a good one’. Also, I can imagine why the Pope would find heaven not too great, but how he could not scratch his head in disbelief at this; I don’t know.

People like me have been caught for being the shams they are ;-) ; you’ve been warned.

One always finds at least one weird invention a day, now for inventions that cancel each other out. They’ve come up with readymade buildings; as well as automating all construction work. Couldn’t these two talk to each other first ?

Porn is always popular, we can harness even this for a good cause.

India lost, Ganguly’s gonna get fired anyway, as always unneccessary tension introduced in an Indian ODI series, when they’re almost winning it. As always, Harsha Bhogle shows us what Ganguly might be feeling now.

Another vote, another day, the UN reasserts how absolutely redundant its become now. (more…)

Looking around

Apparently the Schiavo case has not finished, at least two others (similar, but not quite) are cropping up.. the question to me is how big a deal are we going to let them become.. and how much of one judgement will affect another.

Apparently, all my posts have a reference to Google, so here’s how billionaires settled for $1 salaries. And then went off to buy planes.. quite amazing how you can make money.

Charles and Camilla tie the knot today.. and have some very special guests. I knew that wedding gifts are either loved or despised, but this is an interesting side-effect.

Porn lived over 7,000 years ago :D ; talk of primal urges..

Why does one make even the Cookie Monster think healthy. Damn, the one role model for gluttony is gone. Talk about censorship..

And in case, you don’t understand what I’m talking, you can go suck a bally egg.
Or eat Pi.

Now this is what I call convincing spam:

I never learn..

Inspite of all my whining, I never learn.. I still randomly go off on a “sight-seeing” trip of the blogosphere.

Regardless of any real stuff I come across.. I still remain boggled by the weirdness we come up with.

I remember those electronic pets that were all the craze some years ago (what were they called ?).. the next step is here. I’ve found it quite late as this shows:
Total Owners: 94,497,753
Total Pets: 134,050,758
Neopets per Owner: 1.419
Neopets.com Pageviews : 241,132,270,000

Of course, that could be only from China.

And, of course, if you’re having a wedding, you know where to go..

Thanks to Clicked.. a beautiful range of links for the day is mine.
Then, I paste the good ones here.
Yeah, I know, copycat!

The next step of GoogleMaps is on Flickr, where MemoryMaps have started making an appearance.. views of your hometown. We’re probably heading towards the world’s virtual tour(Google Sightseeing ?!), which might already be done by NASA for the entire planet. It needs .NET & DirectX 9.0c, you have been warned. As far as the software goes.. the concept is enough to boggle you.

Speaking of GoogleMaps, this is eerily close to what I imagined was happening.

To me, blogging was towards something like this, and what I think we’re moving towards.. provided we use it the right way. As with anything else.

Who ever said we were superior ? As plant movements show, we’re way down in terms of scariness and possible taking-over-of-the-world..

If it was the fact that we invent so much(and this is not your typical list), then this is the one I’m not going near to. Ever.

I knew Blogger sucks ! Go… Blogsome !
