Real NPR interviews sound exactly like Saturday Night Live satire... Is this real?...No, Really.


I've always thought the SNL skits featuring Will Ferrell as well as other cast members imitating NPR to be quite funny, but sometimes NPR really is like the SNL skits!

Wringing out the work week with an Autocross on the weekend.


BMW Car Club of America - Golden Gate Chapter Autocross

There's nothing better than taking out your aggressions at an autocross. Technically your car should be fine, they engineer these things to do stuff like this, otherwise those commercials wouldn't exist!

*Note - It's got 105,000 miles on it! Definitely, no garage queen.

Colbert interviews Biz Stone


The day Twitter made sense for me was the day Twitter Search became available. It's easy to see that there is gold in mining the thought stream.aka activity stream. Think about it as having the ability to be able to track the real-time pulse of the world, as first witnessed via the Obama Twitter account and the Mumbai attacks. We're talking about GOD like powers now.

There is definitely reason for Google to be interested in Twitter, but can Google build a better version of Twitter Search? I am convinced that Google can, but it probably take them a while to build it; and most likely won't be as elegant.

Heavy Metal in Istanbul


Good documentary about a Iraqi metal band seeking asylum. After watching this you realize these guys are no different than you and me.
