Have you heard? A live action Newsflash Edit: Looks like the trailer was leaked in YouTube. (Note: I would still go to the Transformers.com site and see it there. Much better quality. Still, this isn’t bad.) Newsflash Edit 2: Looks like someone pulled the trailer from YouTube. (Gee, I wonder who.) Anyway, the only place… Read more Transformers Movie Preview and Baby Boomers
A few months ago, while reading one of my favorite blogs (BenSaunders.com), I saw a couple of posts (post 1, post 2) on something called the “TED” conference. “TED conference?” I thought. “Like the United Airways low-cost air line? You know, I used to work with a guy named Ted…” No, it wasn’t either of… Read more TED Talks: Technology, Entertainment, and Design
The following is an advertisement for Al Gore’s movie, An Inconvenient Truth. Why am I posting it here? Well, aside from the fact that you should probably go out and watch it, I post it here because it features the best robot ever: the alcohol powered Bender, from Futurama. No, don’t expect any good animation… Read more Al Gore Meets (and Beats) Bender
Some guy with way too much time on his hands put together a Star Wars vs. Star Trek video using clips from both the Star Wars movies and Star Trek shows.

If you’ve gotten the same articles over and over again in your Gnorb.NET RSS feed, you’re not the only one. For some reason, the system is sending out over RSS the past 10 or so articles randomly, over and over again. I’m doing my best to figure out what’s going on, but until then please… Read more Weird Stuff Happening with the RSS Feeds…
After my long (and generally happy) days with Linspire, I’ve finally decided to make the switch to Ubuntu Linux. What can I say? I’m a sucker for distributions, and having tried it a while back, then hearing how much it’s improved, I decided to take another shot I at it. Man, am I ever glad… Read more Switching to Ubuntu
Incredible sight. This came from a National Geographic story (link to article), so no, I didn’t see this and capture it in all its splendid wonder. Here’s a bit of the article that explains what it is (great for factoids): It looks like a rainbow that’s been set on fire, but this phenomenon is as… Read more Picture of the Day: Flaming Rainbow of Ice
I read the following in — of all places — ESPN’s Soccernet. (Talk about a weird location for something like this.) When you get a text from your loved one saying something like ‘Love You’ or some other pithy comment, the proper response is, apparently, to text back straight away ‘Love You Too’ and, for… Read more Text Messaging Etiquette for the Romantically Involved
