A great spot from the BBC showing how they never miss anything exciting and now thanks to their internet player, you don’t have to either. It’s well done and it happens to have Monty Python’s Terry Jones in it, which is a nice bonus.
This is a clever bit of set design. All of the press junket interviews for Verne Troyer’s new Mike Meyers movie were shot on a mini set built just for him. It’s kind of poetic to see people forced to make themselves comfortable in a space designed for others. He must have enjoyed this… maybe [...]
I love stuff like this.
People writing somewhat useless, but fun and clever bits of creative programming, just because they can. I wish the return animation lasted longer, but I will no doubt be getting this program when available. Just because I can. Calling Klondike-94327!

If you’re wondering who Harvey Corman was, check out this sketch with Tim Conway. Every week on the Carol Burnett Show we would wait for one of them to lose it and laugh when they shouldn’t. This is a classic example of why they were so good. Clearly this clip features Conway’s [...]
This is clever. Linton Weeks of the Washington Post took an early retirement from the paper. In his final published article, he took the opportunity to send a message in code to his readers. When I first heard about this I was expecting something a little more rude or playful, but even though the message [...]
It seems the new Grand Theft Auto is a little tamer than previous versions. Nice!
