Short post today since I’m still a little groggy from last night’s Mindshare event – which was, in short, as their tagline describes: enlightened debauchery. Met some of the most interesting people I’ve ever met, and the presentations totally blew my mindhole. More on that soon.
But I wanted to share with everyone a couple of things that have made my day that much better, and why I’m looking forward to just not owning a TV ever again. And not just because I can watch all the TV shows I ever really wanted to over the net.
The Future of the Celebrity Crush
Cali Lewis hosts a show I’m totally addicted to, Geekbrief.tv. And why should I have a crush on this seemingly normal lady? Well, for one, she knows what she’s talking about (tech!), she gets access to events and interviews I actually really like to see, and she is genuinely into it. Her enthusiasm comes across in her delivery and it’s infectious. I may even buy a drobo simply because she recommends them and offers discounts on her show… even though I really have no need for one. But maybe I should consider a RAID array…
Anyway, Here’s a gag reel. (Mp4)
For those into girls: She has an adorable laugh. Just you watch.
For those not into girls: Well, do you at least like bloopers?
The Next Generation of Musicals
You like the work of Joss Whedon? How about Neil Patrick Harris?
Me too! Okay! Here ya go! (link out)
It’s good. Trust me. Srah and angelaboration can corroborate this. Some will dismiss it for being a musical, or having musical numbers in it, but it’s more complex than that. It has layers. There’s something totally different underneath than what’s on the surface. And sometimes there’s a third even deeper level, and that one is the same as the top surface one. Like with pie.
Just watch it.
What about your life can be easily translated to the internet?
Joss Whedon? Buffy? Angel? FIREFLY!!!! Yeah, you’re damn right i’m a fan!
Joss Whedon ruined my weekend! *cries*
Heck, yeah! I JUST got back online, and I’m downloading Act III of Dr. Horrible as we speak. SO EXCITED!
Well seeing as how I’m thousands of miles away right now, I use the interwebs to keep in touch with you all =)
Thanks for reminding me about Dr. Horrible too, I nearly missed it.
I was disappointed with Dr. Horrible. I LOVED the first act, but it seemed the last two were lacking. Maybe I just didn’t like the way it ended…I don’t know…
sayin hi to a fellow gemini & musician…
I agree… a girly with knowledge of our beloved “nerdy” things is an A+ in my book
@Tin Ma’am: Hehe, yes, I did know this about you. :P
@srah & @Jenn: You know I hear it’s said somewhere that Joss Whedon repeatedly gives fans what they “need” instead of what they “want”, and I’m wondering if this is true.
@Angela: So your computer is fixed?
@Twilightred: We still need to figure out how to play the Storyboard game via internet…
@blaez: hi! checkin’ out your site, as well!
@SO@24: (heh, you get two @’s) Also check out iJustine, then.
Yup! Computer is back, thank God!
