Charlie Rose and Fell Down Too

Something I missed linking to last week: news stalwart Charlie Rose is apparently a gadget freak to the point where it physically hurt him...

He was carrying a newly purchased MacBook Air and made a quick (but ultimately flawed) decision while falling: sacrifice the face, protect the computer. “In doing so, he pretty much hit the pavement face first, unfortunately,” they said.

I have new respect for him for both going on with the show and loving Apple computers so much. See him in bandaged and bruised action here.

Three Frühlings and a Baby

Hey there, we had a baby. After 10 days, everything is slowly returning to the new normal, and I'll be back tomorrow with new links and some stuff you may have missed in the past week.

Awareness Test

This video is a remarkably accurate awareness test in only one minute.

Photoshop Disasters

My brother just pointed to me to the hilarious Photoshop Disasters, which is like keeping up with celebrity gossip, but the celebrities are designers and the paparazzi is nerds.

My favourites so far are this, this, this and this.

St. Patrick's Day

All the fun of St. Patrick's day without having a drink: check out these cool optical illusions set to music, and then put your beer goggles on (and get completely creeped out) by viewing this.

Chocolate Skittles

Skittles sticks to their reliable insane weirdness to advertise their new product, Chocolate Skittles. Where I'm from, however, we call chocolate Skittles Smarties.

Food Court Musical

I've had the song from this Food Court Musical in my head since last night. This one's from Improv Everywhere, but if you haven't seen the original unexpected musical from Prangstgrup, watch it here.

Full WALL•E Trailer

The full trailer is here for Pixar's latest movie, WALL•E. Personally, I find that Pixar trailers never do the actual film justice, but there's some great moments in there, it looks fantastic in HD if you can spare the bandwidth, and I have no reason to believe it will not be another amazing movie from my favourite studio.

What Should You Read Next?

Just type in a book and What Should I Read Next tells you what you think it might, based on what other people like. Nice and simple.
