The joys of having a common name.

These posts never fail to make me laugh. Thanks to the Sarah Brown.
Brian Kings do the same thing to me on a daily basis. One of them works for the government, one is a lawyer looking for a job, and there have been several students.
Sometimes I offer their senders’ a nice correction. More often than not, I tell them to berate Brian for his inability to use email, or play...
This was the first video I ever put on the internet. Peter and I posted it as a quicktime on our pre-tumblr-tumblog, it got linked on Collegehumor and went viral.
I’m amazed that the explosion didn’t leave a horrible scar.
iPhone App: Photo Phonebook →
joelaz:
This useful, free iPhone app updates your phone’s address book with your friends’ profile pictures from Facebook. That way, when people call, you see their photo instead of just caller-ID. It takes just a minute to update hundreds of contacts. Note: when you get to the screen that shows all the available pictures for import, there’s a check box that says something like “request updated...

Very handy. Send this link to your parents, and tell them to “click their mice” on all the “underlined stuff”. That way they’ll know what the fuck you’re talking about next time you’re visiting home and you make a Charlie Bit Me reference.

Yelp and the Business of Extortion 2.0 →
“When you do get a call from Yelp, and you go to the site, it looks like [your reviews] have been moved … almost all the time when they call you, the bad ones will be at the top.”
This is very disappointing. My contributions to Yelp are through, and I hope a lot of other people follow suit.
The prosecutor must show that Carl Lundström personally has interacted with the...

…anything you upload to Facebook can be used by Facebook in any way they deem fit, forever, no matter what you do later. Want to close your account? Good for you, but Facebook still has the right to do whatever it wants with your old content. They can even sublicense it if they want….

Hey, let's shape my future.
Today, I was slapped in the face with an ultimatum:
A) Keep current (cushy, easy) AE position indefinitely, for a 25% paycut until we have more shows in production. Once more shows start post-production, I’d get my 25% back, while retaining my position.
B) Take a night AE position with the same company for a 10% payraise. That position would last until the end of our current show (ten...
I chopped together a quick montage of Sunday’s parkour session in Claremont. Straight cuts, no fx, nothing fancy. It’s simply a minute and a half of people being talented.
Watch it in HD on Vimeo.
This was part of Sunday’s Parkour session. Mark took a chance with a huge gap over concrete stairs.
