First Bill Gates + Jerry Seinfeld Microsof Ad Makes No Sense (61)
on
Gizmodo (2216) permalink
Besides the slick and probably expensive editing designed to make Jerry Seinfeld look like the more awkward of the pair, there's not a whole lot of special effects in this clip. In fact, there's not really a whole lot of anything, including laughs, information or pimping of Vista. It's kinda like Seinfeld's really long, really rambling Superman ad for Amex he did a few years back. We hope the rest of the campaign is better. ...Shared by Aaron (19) Aaron Beebe (2) Andrew Sims (5) Angus (42) Benjamin J.

Filed under: Video, Internet ToolsA while back we noted that Amazon was planning to bring its video on demand service to the Mac. Well, it looks like they've finally flipped the switch because the service is now live. Much like iTunes, they're selling TV shows as well as offering movies for purchase and rent. Unlike iTunes, it's a streaming rather than a download service. Fortunately, they've got a number of free videos which will give ...Shared by CannonGod (199) chip (24) Chris (15) Elroy (21) Fourbin (15) gfurry (12) Jim (5) Jrod (66) Keeez (14) kepp (18) Mike F (377) Robert Scoble (61) robert steburg (16) Ryan (18) Todd Mundt (50) zer0ck (78)- zer0ck said: about time

Time Magazine says that when Sarah Palin took office as mayor, she approached the town librarian and asked how to go about banning books from the town library: [Former Wasilla mayor] Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. “She asked the library how she could go about banning books,” he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. “The librarian was aghast.” The ...Shared by Adam (30) Adrian (25) Alexander Carlill (9) Allen (10) Andrew Terry (25) andy (13) Bill Streeter (15) bk (2) Dan Russell (12) eoin (1) J.
