Popped Culture: Curious George Learns a Hard Lesson About Desire [Video]

I downloaded Chrome some time last week and have so far been happy with the results. Very fast browser. I know it’s still new and all but I have run in to a few problems.

The following one I find a little bit hilarious:

Cool video…

.

Very soon in Eastern standard time it will be 1:10 on 1/1/10. Last night during the New Years festivities my friends and I were remarking on the digital prospects of a new decade. Some time this year it will be

10/10/10

On that day twice it will be

10:10 10/10/10

My friend, Daniel whose birthday is on December 21 will get to enjoy this tongue twister this decade:

My birthday will bring:

Say what you will about the president, but he totally “gets” the internet generation. Take a look at this site: Get the facts about the stability and security you get from health insurance reform | Health Insurance Reform Reality Check

Well designed, connected (you can share info on Facebook and via email) but each testimonial is low-fi youtube clips. Just gorgeous. A real coup for getting the facts amid the shouting crowds and protests.

Perhaps I was just really tired when I read this this morning, but I read it as “Lawmakers trip, hit tourist hotspots.” — which of course, has a decidedly different meaning. Though bizarre, the connotation fills me with joy.

K. I know I’m a big nerd already but I think these pillows are just the bees knees! So cool looking plus inexpensive! Do want!
