Stephen Fry versus Technophobic Judges. FIGHT!!
British comedian and actor Stephen Fry, a full-fledged geek and tech nerd, sent out a tongue-lashing on a generation of technophobic judges who don’t understand the internet and/or social media in an interview with the BBC back in February. Read the rest of this entry
New Twitter Logo = Awesome New Art!
Soon after Twitter unvieled the newest rendition of their official trademark logo, it didn’t take too long for some people to reinterpret the new logo into an artistic work. Take illustrator Ape Lad, who used the outlines of the new Twitter logo to produce images of Link from the Zelda games, Wolverine, Phillip J. Fry from Futurama, Linus Van Pelt from Peanuts, Yoda, Bugs Bunny, Woody and Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story, etc. Here’s a link to the rest of his Twitter logo-inspired graphics on his Flickr account. Check out some extra images after the break in this post. Read the rest of this entry
PlayStation Vita to get Skype App Later Today!
I remember using Skype on my PSP-3000 a few times and being impressed with the feature. As a matter of fact, Skype was one of the reasons I sold my old PSP-1000 model for a PSP-3000 one (that, video-out, and the “Rock Band: Unplugged” bundle; man, that game is fun!) However, it was limited to voice-based calling, which was fine, but at the time any computer with a built-in or external webcam could utilize the video/voice call option. I finally got a chance to use the video/voice call option on my Samsung Epic 4G, but ran into some trouble early on in a call with an old college friend of mine (apparently, software now-a-days need something called “updates;” I know, never heard of ‘em).
Awesome Shawn Michaels Facts
It’s become clear that I’m a fan of pro wrestling (really, just check the header and click the “Pro Wrestling” link), and being from San Antonio, Shawn Michaels is – and will always be – the poo, the top dog, the Showstopper, The Main Event…..ok, calming down now. A few weeks ago, the world of Twitter took to the interwebs to post some interesting, funny (and possibly factual) truths about the Heartbreak Kid himself. Here are six of my favorites:
“Fear of spiders is arachnophobia, fear of tight space is claustrophobia, fear of HBK is called Logic.“
“If the President ever pushes the “Big Red Button”,@ShawnMichaels_ cell phone will ring.“
“When you met @ShawnMichaels_ it was the greatest day of your life, for him it was Tuesday.“
“When @ShawnMichaels_ left the Virgin Islands it was known simply as the islands.“
“@ShawnMichaels_ can divide by zero…“
“People hunt animals. Chuck Norris hunts people.@ShawnMichaels_ hunts Chuck Norris.”
