My buddy Zachishere shared this video with me by the electronic group Royksopp which has a very space invaders, atari, 8-bit, and just plain kool feel to it. Love it. So thought I would share the video with you. The song is called “Happy Up Here”
So yesterday I came home to discover my monthly schwag bag from Startup Schwag had arrived. Its always exciting to find out what new shirt awaits my growing collection. This month it was Glue (From AdaptiveBlue).
Glue works automatically as you browse popular sites about books, music, movies, wines, restaurants, gadgets, stocks, actors, tv shows and other everyday things around the web. The Glue bar appears right on your current page to show you friends who looked at the same things and what they thought.

Yesterday in the mail I was suprised when I got home from work and my blog bailout check had arrived!!! 1.57 million dollars even!! But unfortunately it was not a real check. DAMN!
I while back MoneyPath setup a page where you could figure your bailout worth for your blog or your twitter account. I thought it was a kool little thing so what the heck I will try it out. My blog of course was worth 1.57 million dollors while my twitter was worth a whopping 11.7 million!
It was fun…here is a pic of the check and my 12seconds video i made.
Got my blog bailout check today!!! 1.57 million on 12seconds.tv
Happy Anniversary to one of my favorite movies “The Matrix” as today marks the 10 year anniversary of its release on March 31, 1999. I remember seeing this moving and just loving it!!! I cant think how many times I saw it when it came out and how many times since.
To mark the occasion of the Anniversary I thought I would post the trailer.
Also one of my favorite site FriendFeed has a tribute today with their logo that I thought was pretty kool.
I was recently alerted of a free screening of the documentary “Nerdcore Rising” here in KC next Thursday (4/2) at Park University which is free to the public. What is Nerdcore Rising you ask?
The documentary “Nerdcore Rising” investigates the newest, wave of hip-hop, nerdcore, as it follows the godfather of the genre, MC Frontalot, on his first national tour. Beginning in South Carolina and culminating in nerd mecca – the Penny Arcade Gaming Convention in Seattle – masses of fans across the country come out to bask in the Front’s geek glory as he strives to achieve mainstream success.
Here is a little teaser of the film
So are you planning to attend? Would love to meet others who are into the nerdcore scene and just have a good night at the movies! Hope to see you there!
What happens when you mix twitter with COPS plus some bad tweets.
Happy 3rd Birthday Twitter! on 12seconds.tv
This time 3 years ago twitter was born and we all have’t been the same hehe. Ever since its been “What are you doing?” in 140 characters or less.
the first tweet by biz one of the founders of twitter
from wikipedia Twitter was founded by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams. It began in March 2006 as a research and development project inside San Francisco podcasting company Odeo.[4] Odeo was co-founded by Noah Glass and blogger Evan Williams. In October 2006, the company was bought out by management, and Williams, Stone, and other Odeo employees started another company named Obvious Corp. to operate Odeo and Twitter, another startup Williams had been testing in the offices for about a year.[5] Twitter had been initially used internally by Odeo’s employees and became a product of Obvious at this time.[6]
I just wanted to thank the whole twitter team for a great service that has allowed me to meet some great people, be a part of great things, and share my thoughts and ideas.
