Happy Holidays Everyone!
I’m calling 2007 my “Adventure Year”.   It’s been quite an adventure and I got to meet a lot of cool people and do a lot of cool stuff.   I spent some time in a beautiful city, Seattle, and an interesting one in New York City.   Philly’s home though.  I like it here, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get away :) And I’m happy about that. My heroes...

The Simpons used Carly Comando's song 'Everyday'... →
“A few months back a producer from the Simpsons contacted Carly about using her song ‘everyday’ for an upcoming episode in which they were going to parody my video. She was negotiating a rate for the song, until they never got back to her. No fee was agreed on, no contracts signed. She and I both assumed that they were no longer interested in using her song for the show. Last night the...

Why hasn't Google Built/Bought a Social Network?
(orkut never counted, although could come back into play) Because Google IS a social network. They are playing around with a Wikipedia/Mahalo style project now. Oh boy oh boy. Google has done something interesting here. I believe they’ve “collected” first, and then will “connect”, rather than the other way around ala Facebook, Myspace, and every other social...

All you need is the internet, you Jackass.
As you may have heard, Paramount will be releasing a Jackass kind-of-sequel called “Jackass 2.5” on the internet December 19th.  For free.  You’ll only be able to watch the stream of it for 2 weeks, no downloads, and after that you’ll be able to buy it on DVD or paid download. This is a smart move and pretty revolutionary.   Paramount has nothing to lose.  Apparently this...

Be careful kids, you could have a worse word tattooed on you.   This girl didn’t do too bad, it’s not like it means “K-Mart” or “Ugly beyatch”. I love the music in this piece.   Have any funny tattoo stories? Send em along.

what w00t means to me - congrats w00t
w00t was crowned word of the year by Merriam Webster today.  It beat out facebook for gosh-sakes.  Thank you Merriam, and thank you Webster.  I luv you. What does w00t mean to me?  Oh, so much.  So many of us have said it for years, and have gotten blank stares from people who spend under 1 hour a day on the net.  No more!!!  Us w00t-ers have arrived. No more when I walk through Walmart and grab...

MZuck says sorry on behalf of Facebook
The whole act now, ask for forgiveness later mantra of the web bit Facebook on the ass this time. Their Beacon advertising model, which part of it publishes your activity on other sites to your friends on Facebook sounded creepy and weird to me in the first place. But hey, I don’t work for Facebook so what do I know? This could have been a good feature if Facebook actually gave you the...
