Facebook is pretty much a part of everyone’s lives now. It’s ingrained in most of our social interactions in some form or another. There is nary a person I know that doesn’t at least use it or check it once throughout the week. But what if Facebook didn’t exist in this day and age? Check...
With everyone trying to get the latest deals and savings, it’s no wonder sites like Groupon and Living Social have taken off recently. Now the big boys, Facebook & Google, want to jump on the coupon bandwagon. Although only in limited markets right now, I’m sure they’ll expand their offerings quickly. Check out this infograph...
Although not officially released until May 3rd, the Beastie Boys are allowing you to listen to their entire forthcoming album completely free. You can stream all 16 tracks from Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2 online right now. I think this is a great way to leverage the internet to increase interest for their music. They’ve already done an...
Looks like the infamous white iPhone might actually finally be here. One Belgian retailer (Van Roey) has received their first shipment. But it’ll cost you a whole lot, $935 for the 16GB and $1,095 for the 32GB. I don’t know about you but I certainly would pay that much for this pearly phone. Maybe there...

Fan Yang is the “bubble scientist” behind the feat. He helped organized and direct the people into the massive bubble of...
Some times being a news interviewer can be tough. You’ve got the normal challenges of being live on camera, reading from teleprompters and listening to the producer direct you through the earpiece. These things can be practised and learned to do with ease. But even the best can get thrown off by a tough guest....
I’m pretty sure by now you’ve seen the video of bully victim Casey Heynes. The Australian kid who was always being picked on…until one day a bully took it a little too far and Casey retaliated. The school ended up suspending both students as they have a strict no fighting policy but since the video...
With the popularity of Twitter and Facebook and with their constant stream of information, it’s only natural that a lot of use get our “breaking news” from such sites. A message can spread on Twitter faster than CNN can get the story, write it and post it. This happened recently with Wyclef Jean (of the...
We’ve all been witness to a bad commercial before. How about those darned class action lawsuit ads that are always popping up during my Jeopardy! program. They’re horrible but I’ve gotten somewhat immune to viewing them. Here are some truly awful local TV ad spots. I’d doubt if it wasn’t for YouTube and the internets...
