Say it ain't so!
Not Billy! We lost Billy Mays yesterday. I actually watch Pitchmen and he was a pretty funny guy and quite a personality. So I was actually really sad to hear about his death. Check him out on Conan just a week ago.

R.I.P Smooth Criminal.
As I’m sure everyone in the world now knows. Michael Jackson died yesterday from cardiac arrest. The guy was such a legend that it was kind of surreal to hear that he died. He was and always will be the King of Pop. Usher and Justin Timberlake have tried to emulate him, but no one ever could. The guy was practically pure entertainment and just amazingly talented. “Thriller” is...

Oh Bolivian News... you crack me up.
I guess the crash of Oceanic flight 815 is pretty realistic as a news program in Bolivia aired stills from said crash and claimed it was Air France flight 447. They were duped by a hoax email and didn’t bother to check it out basically. The “photos” are in wide screen and taken from inside the plane that is being ripped apart… and also it’s daylight when the plane...

Revolution
So you might have heard about the Iranian election and how it’s pretty much been stolen by Ahmadinejad from Mousavi. Riots broke out and things got real shady. There are photoshopped pictures of a pro Ahmadinejad rally and The guy who leaked the real elections results (Where Ahnadinejad came in 3rd) is killed in a suspicious car accident. You can read it all in a nice timeline here.

I have a dream...
… that one day the name Sarah Palin will be forgotten.
There’s this feud between Letterman and Palin about a joke he made. You can read about it here. Dave made a joke about Sarah and Bristol who were in town, but later found out it was her younger daughter who was in town, not Bristol. So it seemed like he made a pretty bad joke about a 14 year old girl. Well Dave is not an...

My Bone-itis!
I know I already posted about Futurama coming back, but it bears another post. Fox themselves have confirmed 26(!!!) brand new episodes have been ordered from Comedy Central. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Futurama is Matt Groening’s true masterpiece. While the Simpson’s is great and the the first decade or so has a special place with me, they are simply...

Oh Hannity... You so craaazy!
My favorite part is when he twists the President’s words to try and make him look bad.

Your new search engine
bing
Microsoft is on the ball these days and now have a search engine that rivals google. Crazy… I know. I like, just about everyone, use google to search the web, for directions, find low prices, and just about everything else. It even powers my phone (Android). bing just makes it more intuitive. While I don’t think bing will overthrow google anytime soon, I do think it’s a...

"You're not using preset waggle commands."
Microsoft unveiled their new Xbox tech today at the first day of E3. This right here… is Microsoft R&D at work.
Poject Natal
I’m almost more interested in the more pedestrian uses of this tech. Like automatically signing me in when it sees my face and browsing media with just my hands.
And here is Peter Molyneux and Lionhead Studio’s “Milo.” A tech demo...
