Good Advertising – Makita Drill Ad
I’m going to start another series, that will be titled Good Advertising – which will naturally get stuck with any adblocker out there. If you’ve been reading this blog for any time, you’ll notice that I whine and moan quite a bit about advertising and the industry in general. This comes from the fact, that [...]
Stand by me played by the world
I love music, and there’s something inspirational about when people unite in song. Even the cliched ones like the American superstar songs did with We are the world (video below). What comes first, is a video from the Playing for Change project that raises funds to build schools. It’s inspiring and awesome! From the award-winning [...]
The Butt Race – YouTube’s no.1 from 1965
If Youtube and some other technologies required by Youtube, such as the Internet were around in 1965 we would be watching videos like this. Videos directed by 14-year old kids, that are original and funny – and most importantly, have a very catchy name to get those viewers in. See? The next time your parents [...]
Evelien Lohbeck’s notebook
Again, the web delivers something awesome to my retinas – this time the awarded movie / animation by Dutch artist Evelien Lohbeck titled the “Notebook”.

Bionic Penguins? You betcha.
Robots are super cool, bionic swimming penguin robots that talk to each other forces me to reinvent the scale of cool. Created by German engineering firm Festo, these robotic penguins use state-of-the-art 3D sonar to navigate around their surroundings and, according to New Scientist, are suitably flexible: The bionic penguins can twist and turn almost [...]
Cops and Clowns fighting Matrix-style
I knew you just can’t resist looking at that topic, and the best part of it is that it is actually true. Here’s a video by Stink Digital they made for some TV company promoting some new technology, but I’m unable to say which those are since this “ad” doesn’t mention neither of them. So, [...]
Palindromic video
Palindromes are just awesome and brilliant, and here is a fricking palindromic video that’s not the easiest thing to do. Check it out!
Cuteness over crappy days
Since yesterday was a bit of a crappy day, I needed some cute overloading to make the evil monkeys stop pointing their fingers at me – and then I found this in my RSS reader. The monkey-like creature in the video is a Loris, and it looks so unhappy when the scratching pauses. If you [...]
