The Effect Of Twitter Followers On Emmy Awards [Infographic]
In case you don't live in the States, I'll quickly explain what a Primetime Emmy Award is. It's an award presented in recognition of excellence in American primetime television. It's basically the television equivalent of a Grammy Award (for music) and an Academy Award (for movies).

Superheroes In Real Life (And Yes, They Have Masks)
Like most kids, when I used to watch Superman and Wonder Woman in cartoons, I asked my mom if superheroes existed in real life. When she said no, it was almost as devastating as learning that there is no such thing as a man dressed in a red suit who comes down the chimney to deliver presents made by ...

40 Harrison Ford Faces Illustrated
Have you seen the new Harrison Ford movie Cowboys & Aliens yet? I haven't. Apparently, the story goes something like this... In 1873, a spaceship arrives in Arizona with aliens who want to take over the earth. They decide to start by conquering the Wild West region, which is where they find a fe ...

Pica Pic: Play All Those Retro Handheld Games Online!
I think almost everyone got to play the small handheld monochrome gaming pods when they were kids. It was the coolest gadget a kid could have, and we walked around with it to let everyone else see us play it. That's how us geeks did it, and we always watched to see if there were any other kids aroun ...

An Air Guitar Performance Like You’ve Never Seen Before
My friends and I used to play our air guitars all the time in the 80s. Back then, there was nothing quite like the exhilarating feeling that came from playing an air guitar to Guns N' Roses or Def Leppard. Then when were were old enough to drive, it was all about playing the keyboard on the steering ...

Unbelievable 55 Minute Long Matrix Fan Movie
It's been a few years since the last Matrix movie, The Matrix Revolutions, was released. It was back in 2003 to be exact. It created a cult following with a lot of people thinking they were Neo himself. Well, as we know, that doesn't really make any sense, yet still there were large communities who ...

Mind Blowing Ukulele Cover Of Billie Jean
One of the world's most hit song generating artists was Michael Jackson, and even though he died, there are still some expectations for the material Michael wrote which hadn't yet been released. There are still 4 albums to be released with his songs, and Sony Music is of course beyond secretive abou ...
16 Online Gamers Unmasked: What They Really Look Like
Up until recently, when many of us talked about our social media presence, we often referred to it as our online life. We'd often refer to our offline life as our real life. However, as technology and social media becomes an increasing part of our daily lives, more and more of us are realizing that ...

Finger Tutting: How To Dance With Your Fingers
We got a hot one tonight baby! This is so simple yet creative, and I love it. First of all, this is an advertisement for the Samsung Galaxy SII phone which recently launched in France. Secondly, it's gone viral (Yay... for a change Apple didn't think of it first), and lastly, I betcha it's the coole ...

Transformers: The 2,000 Pound Bumblebee Vanilla Cake
It's always so much fun to see artists get inspired by the release of new movies. Yesterday I wrote about the stop-motion animations director who recreated the entire Cars 2 movie trailer in Lego. That was the result of several months of hard work, all inspired by a movie.
Another artist, a famou ...

Cars 2: The Entire Trailer Recreated In Lego
In just a few days, Cars 2 will be released here in the States. I know most people are fans of Lightning McQueen, but Mater was always my favorite. This new movie focuses more on him and his little adventures, so I have no doubt I'll like it. The only question for me is whether or not I'll see it in ...

It’s A Dad’s Life: A Daddy Gangsta Rap
I have plenty of friends on Twitter who are dads, and to be honest, I sometimes wonder how they manage to fit it all in. Their tweeting is off the hook, and still they have a day job to go to every day. And as if that wasn't enough, they also have a family to take care of. It really ought to impress ...

Smurf Village: The Real Life Completely Blue Town
If you grew up in the '80s like a lot of us did, you probably remember watching The Smurfs on Saturday mornings. I always loved that show (especially Papa Smurf and Smurfette), and of course, I begged my mother to buy me a Smurf lunchbox, a Smurf t-shirt and the Smurf cereal.
Since The Smurfs 3D ...

Memory Tapes: Strangest Music Video You’ve Ever Seen
I think most of us are quite used to music videos that have insane special effects. At least this is true if you've seen some of the later (not recent though) Michael Jackson videos. He always had the most insane special effects, and he was always on the edge when it came to technology. However, rec ...

17 Odd Facts About Seinfeld That Might Surprise You
I am one of those odd people who would rather work instead of watching a series on the telly. I know I will get sucked right in and then hours upon hours will get wasted on something that I will never gain anything from, if you know what I mean. That happened when I started watching 24 (you know tha ...
