America
I was reading a discussion on Ask Metafilter about understanding America and I got inspired about what a great country that we live in. I also recently re-discovered Stumble Upon. You see I have this list of about 30 bookmarks that I visit on a regular basis. When those are done, I’ve officially finished the internet. I just sit there trying to think of something to Google. But stumbling allows me to randomly go through sites that are rated good by the community. There seems to be some kind of relationship to that discussion and the links that I’m finding today
Ask Meta-filter discussion about understanding America
The Wikipedia entry on the history of beer in America
A picture of the invasion fleet at Normandy
A video about the Chrysler Turbo Encabulator
I don’t know if these links explain America. I’m sure if I spent time on it I could noodle out some correlation of feedom and responsibility and recreation. But I think that it explains my interests and humor pretty well.
Later!

This may be the perfect project for the internet. At first we were all just surfing around looking for naked celebrity gif images, then modems got better and we discovered videos. Then some of us started making videos of us lip syncing to popular songs. Then someone coined this term “crowdsourcing” where you get a lot of people to do little bits of something. Now there’s this… and now we can all go home.
Wait… we’re already at home.

Maybe it’s that I’ve seen most of these movies? Maybe it’s because it seems like at any moment they might come to life in full video. We see so much full motion video on the internet now that its surprising to see moving images that are still gif animations. Certain ones are better than others, I personally like ones where not all the elements are moving at the same speed. When you look at a full page of posts you almost slip into a drug induced stupor for a second. Check it out, I’m sure you’ll enjoy a few of them.

Almost every video that I find on Vimeo is really high quality and looks like it took a lot of time. Maybe it’s that the producers spent a lot of time on them and they dont want them being dominated in views by the new talking cat video or some kid in his basement lip-syncing to Lady Gaga.
This one is worth your time.
