i ♥ anne frank bookz
Just catching up on my feeds and this popped up – a glimpse into what teenagers love and hate reading. Some interesting stuff in there, if a bit random – including the fact that reading “My own blog or fan fiction” comes in at number 4 most loved and that Facebook is number 9 most [...]

Seriously, WTF?
Don’t really know what to say about this, other than, check out what people have made using Tampons. There’s step by step instructions for each item and even a video of someone playing Ode To Joy on a pan pipe made of Tampons!!!? Nothing is off-limit when it comes to the interwebs. All a bit [...]

La Times on Lifecasting/Qik
The LA Times reports on lifecasting and Qik.com, the software I got all excited about earlier this week when a live video stunt took place in Norway using Qik.
Jason Calcanis is interviewed in the piece and besides calling himself a “nerd who builds websites” he predicts that “The worst moment in almost everybody’s life [...]

First Twitter marriage proposal! (she said yes)
UPDATE: Wired has ran something on this and it looks like it’s the SECOND Twitter marriage proposal!
I’m offline for a few hours and look what I miss – what must surely be the first ever marriage proposal done via Twitter. Congratulations Emily and Max! Quite literally everything is happening on Twitter these days.

Behave yourself: Guitar Hero on the DS?!
There’s something a bit odd about this (just check out the video, me thinks they look a bit silly) – but, I just can’t resist even more music and DS action. This time Guitar Hero makes it’s debut on the DS using a nifty little plug-in-device-type-key-thingy. Looks a bit clunky if you ask me, but [...]
Social Objects by Mr Social Object
Nice interview by Shel Israel with Hugh Macleod about social objects, social markers, social marketers, social marketing and other interesting stuff. Some old stuff covered but still really nice to see Hugh talking about it himself. (Hugh, you rock BTW)
No embed (boo!), click through to watch at Fast Company.

Qik – live video stunt
Right now (and I mean as I type) there are some guys in Norway spraying the Qik logo on a wall and broadcasting it via a mobile phone using Qik. People are watching as they “talk” to the Norwegian police and generally have a laugh doing something very cool using mobile technology. They’re also using [...]

Twittertrix
Drew just pointed me in the direction of the Twitter Fan Wiki. It’s a nice resource for everything Twitter, as you’d expect. Amongst everything on there I came across this – a Matrix-like Japanese mash-up of Tweets (done by this guy). Pretty nice me thinks.
Which reminds me, have you seen this blog – Stuff White [...]

Ultimate shed (number one)
By now you’ll probably know I have a thing for sheds. So when this popped up in my feeds I just slipped into auto pilot to blog about it. I think (as I remember an email from a fellow Biter) it was featured in the Metro this week too. But, just in case you haven’t [...]
