I’m a simple man and this cracks me up.

October 29, 2008

So, I have admitted before and I’ll admit again that simple things can just crack me up. The following photo is one of those things. Not high-tech, and not really THAT funny, but the look on Biden’s face is just so awesome in the third pane, that I had to post it. Enjoy!

Custom Steve Jobs Bobblehead Charger

August 12, 2008

Wow, this is truly what happens when art and geek meet. The Steve Jobs bobblehead charger. BOOM!!! See more photos and the whole process here. Now, the best part of this is that this is a truly hand-crafted, custom piece. No Chinese factory busting these out. And this little guy is not alone either, there [...]

Couldn’t say it better myself

July 24, 2008

I’ve always been pretty outspoken about the fact that I think DRM is from the devil, so when I saw a Prius with this license plate, I had to take a picture. It was outside of my favorite coffee joint Albina Press, and I was able to ask the owner of the car if this [...]

I don’t think there’s anything I can say that improves upon this leprechaun search.

Ouch!

Excellent use of a video to sell a product

June 30, 2008

With everybody trying to be viral and do something zany and crazy in the world of online video, it was refreshing to see MooCards just do a simple and fun commercial. That’s really what this is, even though this commercial is hosted at their site. By the time I was done watching it, I was [...]

What if this man was actually our president? Running our country?

June 16, 2008

I am absolutely enamored with Barack Obama. I thought this speech was not only beautifully written, wonderfully delivered, but to me, it actually felt as if he believed what he was saying. And if that’s true, I honestly can’t imagine what it would be like to have someone like this in charge of our country. [...]

Powerful email enkoder to help save you from the spam

June 13, 2008

Hivelogic recently released a new version of their Enkoder software that allows you to truly obfuscate any online email addresses, preventing bots and scrapers from adding your contact info to their spam lists. Before, I’ve always used just a simple obfuscation technique involving hex codes, but this goes way beyond that. It’s available as a [...]
