AS you might expect in the Age of Mashups, the “Don’t Tase Me, Bro” incident has given birth to a slew of user-generated web content — and heck, even games.
What do you think of the podcast? And come to think of it, what’s your favorite radio drama?
Mine would have to be “Gabi ng Lagim.” I still remember as a kid dreading having to go up after watching TV alone downstairs because I’d hear “Gabi ng Lagim” playing on the radio, heh
WE know that USB is pretty cool and all sorts of devices have come out making use of this technology. But this one takes the cake. It’s the USB Humping Dog which does nothing but… well, it’s pretty obvious what it does, right, heh
This thing is actually for sale at Digital World Tokyo. They come in three breeds — Beagle, Dalmatian and Chocolate Labrador.
The USB Humping Dog doesn’t contain any flash memory, OK — these dogs are made for humping, and that’s what they’ll do.
Oh, and because you might get a kick out of it, here’s a blast from the past. It’s “Don’t Copy that Floppy,” the anti-piracy ad that the Software Publishers Association, now known as the Software and Information Industry Association, came out with in 1992, which is now enjoying a second life as a viral video thanks to sites like, ahem, YouTube.
A copy is also available for download at the Internet Archive. Yeah, I know you can find a lot of ways to download files off YouTube and other video sites, but why settle for the FLV file?
And speaking of irony, here’s a thought: this ad was talking about protecting creativity, but, really, how creative was this rapper dude ad? If you’re trying to convince people, would it hurt to come up with more interesting ways to convince them — and pay attention to the quality of your ads?
