Megan Fox in Transformers Image by nicogenin via Flickr
Besides Megan Fox, and Michael Bay doing Transformers again, I really want to see this movie. Transformers 2 may seem like a cheezy flick, but let me tell you, I was jealous of kids with Transformers when I was a kid. Nope, I wasn’t exactly the rich […]

The pictures from the Dream Amsterdam project made by Peter Funch are now online on the IWONDER site. If you haven’t registered for the project, go check it out. Art translates into what you love about a city. Here are some pictures made with Sabine and Marc an me.

Here is the press release sent out […]

As those of you who read this blog, or know @Marlooz you know she had her laptop stolen while at the #140conf in New York City. Her twitter followers raised enough money for a new one for her. She put together this compilation (was working until late last night I can tell you) to thank […]

Do you want to know the amazing story of how video games came to be the way they are today? I found this great 5 Part documentary series that takes us through Pong being made on an oscilloscope( I think ), to the Virtual Worlds we have today. And every beautiful Ms. PacMan, Legend of […]

Many people wonder how Viral Campaigning works. Many beleive that all you have to do is make a funny video woth a cat and that will spread the message. Sorry, that was about 2-3 years ago. The truth is nowadays you have to create a Multi Media Alternate Reality Game. Otherwise known as an ARG. […]

Since I’ve been back in Amsterdam, I have been unable (too lazy) to get a bike. My old one, is dead somewhere near GabeB’s place and I can’t find the key. Marc had another bike which he lost the key to outside my house since August. Good condition though. I finally got around (was awake […]

I just got a message through facebook saying this:
If you have a Twitter account, set your location to Tehran and your time zone to GMT +3.30. Security forces are apparently hunting for bloggers using location/timezone searches. The more people at this location, the more of a logjam it creates for forces trying to shut down […]

So last weekend or so I was in Berlin to Speak at a workshop, and I did an interview with gruenderszene as well as some other journalists. In any case gruenderszene posted the video interviews as well as a nice writeup. In the interviews I talk about twitter, the difference between entrepreneurs in Europe, United […]

Hey family and friends that read this. Here are a whole bunch of pictures that I haven’t gotten to posting. Everything from going to Berlin, DreamAmsterdam, Steve’s B-Day party, GabeB singing at Panama, breakfast with Sabine and more in between. Slideshow frenzy!

Yesterday I saw this video come up onto facebook. Now I see it coming in on youtube. I had trouble watching it the first time, and it does not get better. It is the cold harsh truth of what is happening in Tehran at the moment. I must warn you that the video is extremely […]

The thing about working freelance…

I haven’t had a TV in Holland for a little over a year now. Actually I never really watched dutch TV to be honest when I did. When Bicyclemark skyped Amserdamize and I if we wanted to be on TV, we said sure why not? A friend of his Shylo (fun geek girl who loves […]

My dad is Qikking at the Chattahoochee Nature Center. My mom works there saving the environment like she has always done. I remember chaining myself to trees as a kid with al the other neighborhood kids, in protest to a highway being built through a park in the area. Great memories. Love my parents for […]

image via CaglePost.com It is interesting to see how the web is being used as a tool for activism in Iran. And probably more importantly how people around the world show their support for the cause. Let’s take Twitter and Iran. Most of the news is coming out of this country through Twitter. And journalists really […]

Caturday means more cats. Actually I’m more of a dog lover being allergic to cats, but virtually I think they are awesome. Maybe I need a virtual cat on the XBOX like Milo? Today coming from my buddy Nuno is Cats on Catnip. For more videos check his post here.

Xbox and Steven Spielberg have gotten into a project called “Milo“. It is scarely like A.I. that was made by Spielberg, and really shows how far the “Tamagochi” Phenomenon can happen. When we feel lonely our laptops and our games are our new friends. Scary and sick but this is how it is going. But […]

Ok. If you haven’t seen the Fly Swatting Obama in the last 24 hours, you haven’t been online. Reminds me of some technology a friend of mine is working on that is a laser guided mosquito killer, but I digress. Then there is Wierd al Yankovic’s Craigslist song. I met Craig from Craigslist once at […]

My roommate Marlooz gave a presentation today at the 140 conf by Jeff Pulver. Back in Kinnernet, Pulver and I where in a group talking about twitter and I shared my TwitterDate experience with Marlooz. Now Marlooz and I are roommates. He said he wanted that story at the 140conf. So Marlooz was able to […]

A picture for an awesome girl for her birthday. Happy Birthday Sabine! I hope this year is the best one yet!

It’s time for some Puppets and muppets. Why? Because you can never go wrong with them. I see a revolution coming with puppets here. Much like the revolution in Animation spearheaded by greats like Spike Decker, Bill Plympton, Danny Antonucci and later the boys from South Park and others. Going from Disney kid animations, and […]

So, I come across a video that I would like to save on the internet. I may wanna use it for a class, to create a mash-up, keep a copy of friends videos, use it to VJ, etc. I need to download a lot because of either copyright, or loss of account or some other […]

The other day I was helping my friend Isabelle out with her blog. Of course setting up a blog with your own hosting etc. you need some good passwords. Isabelle was having trouble with good passwords that were easy to remember. I told her about my L33T technique and she thought it was brillant. Here […]

Some of you may have seen some of the popular work that Andy Samberg, Jorna Taccone and Akiva Schaffer have done. Most recently they have come out with the hit “I’m on a Boat”. One of the songs off The Lonely Island album “Incredibad“. But to know the back channel this comic genius of our […]

How many people spend hours behind the computer screen. I do, but I also face a window so I get some sun during the day as well. (Speaking of which I really need to clean my window. Very dirty.) In any case REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY has now allowed computertan.com to give people tans by a computer […]

Have you played PowerPoint Karaoke yet? Ok this is one for the real nerds and geeks. The rules are simple.1. Have a powerpoint or slideshow that no one knows yet.2. A presentor tries to present the Powerpoint or Slideshow and make a coherent (and often humoruos) presentation.3. (Optional) Presentor must take a shot after every […]

Last weekend in Berlin I met with a number of journalists to talk tech. GameBizz.de is a popular site about gaming which also did an interview with me. Here is the interview in which I talk about Games, Game Development, teaching at the HKU, female gaming demographics and what Newspapers could be doing with Gaming […]
