Weird Al vs Lady Gaga: The Saga
Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed I have been a fan of Weird Al Yankovic for many years now. The level of respect I have for the man ratcheted up several notches when I read his latest blog post. The story details his journey to create the [...]
The Best Unboxing Video Ever
Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed Unboxing videos – we’ve all seen them, but you’ve never seen an unboxing video quite like this. This is bigger than the iPhone 4 unboxing. It’s more moving than unboxing the MacBook Air. This unboxing video could be the last unboxing [...]
Star Wars Parody Song – Midichlorian Rhapsody
Jeff and Maya Bohnhoff are creating some of the best parodies I’ve heard lately. This one is a take on Bohemian Rhapsody – Star Wars style! You’ll find eighteen tracks on their CD, including titles such as DNA, Landing Party, Our Meds are Cheaper and I Am the Walmart. The titles alone are enough to [...]
Puppet Reviews Opera Mini for the iPhone
The people at Hoggworks make puppets, create high-quality online shows, and do a whole lot of other great stuff. Brian Hogg is the brains behind this outfit, and I’m not sure that everything is where it should be in his cranium. I mean that in a VERY good way, though. This stuff is hilarious, and [...]
Who is Justin Bieber?
Justin Beiber is a teen sensation who was originally discovered on YouTube by R&B artist Usher. His story is much like a fairytale – the stuff dreams are made of. Young girls all over the world fight over who is going to marry the poor young kid. Guys his age wish they were him, even [...]
The Geeks: An Oliver Stone Film
Perhaps by fate, an unknown actor by the name of Chris Pirillo was today selected by director Oliver Stone to play the role of Chris Pirillo, the deeply troubled, famed technology connoisseur. Stone’s choice of Pirillo for Pirillo was largely due to Pirillo’s utter lack of experience in film. Certainly, Pirillo has watched a few [...]
Christmas Music Parody – Blue Vista
Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed Every year, I enjoy making a tech-themed parody out of a Christmas song. This year is no exception. Welcome to “Blue Vista”. We were talking about Christmas and Vista both in the chat room today. Someone laughed and mentioned “Blue Vista [...]
LEAVE ME ALONE…?
Yes, I get it – this video is a parody. I think Tuesday Night Tech has been trying to get my attention, and they’ve succeeded. Seems that their sense of humor is right up my alley, whether they’ve been slagging on me or not. I’ve had virtually no time to digest my podcast subscriptions, let [...]
I’m in a JibJab Cartoon!!!
From What We Call the News… There was a time not long ago when each and every day at six o’clock each evening you knew news was on its way from anchors of integrity… It’s all downhill from there. Then along came cable and the ratings race ensued Great legends found themselves replaced with… It [...]
My Favorite Portal: Protopage
I can’t think of the last time I set any site as my default “start page” (other than my own, or a local document of collected links and search fields). I was checking referral logs for bLaugh and noticed that Protopage and Netvibes kept popping up. I had visited each of them a while ago, [...]
Comic Freeware
When we released the bLaugh API, I was hoping that some enterprising developer would use it to create something fun. Mike from Singer’s Creations just unleashed Comicazzi tonight. Essentially, it’s a desktop app that will let you drag and drop bLaugh comics onto your current wallpaper. If that doesn’t sound very exciting to you, I’ve [...]
Is This Offensive or Funny?
Okay, so… Brad and I released this comic on bLaugh today: Should be chuckle-worthy, though it wasn’t the original strip. I showed another image to friends, with some of them suggesting that we hold it indefinitely – and others suggesting that we run it immediately. If you’re offended easily, you don’t want to see this: [...]
bLaugh is a Reader’s Choice
For some reason or another, choosy users choose bLaugh. At least, that’s what the readers and staff of BusinessWeek Online report. We just received a “Best of the Web” award in the Humor category. I’d still like to see bLaugh pushed out and shared on more Web sites, portals, and print media. Who else won? [...]
Don’t Download This Album
I’m not a professional music critic – and don’t pretend to be. However, I’ve gotta tell you that “Straight Outta Lynwood” [SOL] is one of the best albums that “Weird Al” Yankovic has produced to date. Yes, I’m biased – having been a fan of the band ever since the seventh grade. His originals finally, [...]
