Computer Camp Love.

Totally nerdy.

Flight of the Conchords

Has anyone caught this show before?

I like it.

Hey there BFS.

BFS hearts the Plain White T’s and their hit “Hey there Delila.” I knew I couldn’t pass up this rendition done by the Showbiz Pizza Place band Rock-A-Fire. BFS this is all for you.

The guy, Chris Thrash, that has done this has also done Fergie’s London Bridge, RHC’s Dani California, and a bunch more. Check out his profile.

Pretty cool, but I am still a little weirded out by the animatronics. Too many greasy cheese pizza whack-a-mole moments at Showbiz.

Weiner Mobile.

Weiner Mobile from gotshoo and Vimeo.

This video is on the last leg of our Colorado trip. And you thought I had posted everything! I think at this point I have been driving for at least 10 hours. The majority of the driving was through Kansas, which is the worst state to drive through. It was such a boring drive I woke up GTG just to get video of the Weiner Mobile. As I describe it in the video, it was an epic moment.

The Mountain Goats.

I found this band surfing through my MySpace friends and non-friends. Never heard of them before this, but I like it so far. Kind of a folk-punk sound. They’ve got a bunch of live shows in the Internet Archive. I am listening to one right now.

The video to the song that got me interested in them.

Anyone else heard of them before and have any recommendations about them?

Blame GTG.

Pit stop on the side of the road, took four snapshots and they came out looking like the above.

Eat cake.

The neighbor’s kids had a birthday party back in June. I am just now getting them online.

The set.

Right clicka.

Couldn’t pass this one up.

I wore a Members Only jacket.

It’s true.

Man, I miss that touch, that feel. Something happened when I put it on.

Okay, everything else from the 80’s, except the hair-metal, has come back. Why not this?

Sterno, you still rockin’ your Members Only?

The Avett Brothers

… are coming to town.

Thanks Just-Two-Guys for the heads up.

July 11th.

SpringfieldFlickrMap Mashable

Guess you guys couldn’t see it.

Above: I created this map with geotagged pictures from Flickr with the geotag: springfieldillinois. Of course, you can log on to Flickr and do the same thing; except this is with Microsoft’s Virtual Earth. I did this using Microsoft’s Popfly. Popfly is kind of a drag and drop framework based off their Silverlight. In fact, this only took me about ten minutes to put together. If you’ve heard of Yahoo Pipes - it’s kind of the same. This one is more for users.

The basic premise is that you take a data element and mash it up with something visual. Like taking your Flickr feed and displaying it in a flip book.

The video below does a better explanation of explaining the concept and has sort of a mini-tutorial.

Digg this.

Okay, I like digg… but not this much.

This is what I’ve dugg.

Tainted Love - Part dos.

Sixpence - Kiss Me

C&C Music Factory - Gonna Make You Sweat

The hardest video to find, and I settled for a spliced version of the #2’s of 1997.

The Cardigans - Lovefool
