Susan Boyle made my night

You have to watch this video until she starts singing to understand. Rethink what you think about things - accept you're wrong and see the world as an amazing place that you've been too cynical to appreciate. This should erase some of the callousness built up from reality TV.

edit: watch it again after you finish the first time. Honestly, you owe it to yourself to see her (and you) through new eyes. Listen to the judges echo what you thought before. Last thing they say before she starts, "Ok, big song . . . " waiting to hear her fail.

Cool video - what's happening now

Eepy bird - The Post-it Experiments

http://eepybird.com/, the creators of the famous Diet Coke and Mentos phenomena, have had another vision, and it was of post-it-notes as slinkies. I've got to admit, I've earned a paycheck or two for playing with the little accordians, but I've never come close to this.
Watch the video below, and don't forget to go to the link above to see all the other videos on their site, including the old Diet Coke and Mentos ones. Enjoy!

Go to the bottom and look for "view now"

I don't know what to say, other than it's funny. I saw this in a friend's Facebook profile, looked it up, and thought she was crazy. I went back the next night, and watched the whole thing. It will be with me until the day I die, and it is a small select group who will ever know what I'm talking about, apparantly, because it looks like it stopped after the first episodes. They all end in a satisfying storyline, however, and it's musical . . . you can't beat that . . .

Blip.FM

I'm a DJ now. That's right, I spin music to entertain the masses. Click on the Blip.fm link on the right panel to check it out. Add me as a DJ and hear the "blips" I make added to your playlist. Let me know if you decide to DJ, too, and I'll add you to my fav. list and give you props.

Honestly, it's like a social network site meets a radio station, and it's a lot more addictive than you think it could be :)

Your handwriting -> a font

Go to http://www.yourfonts.com/ and follow the easy instructions to create a font based on your own hand writing. The only requirement is that you have a scanner. It took me five minutes to create one that looked EXACTLY like my own handwriting, except that it was all online and not really messy. I only did the first page, but you have the opportunity to create an entire font of your own. If nothing else, it makes neat letters home.

note: the post from Lifehacker.com (that I saw this at) has made it so popular, you may have to try more than once - it's worth it!! :)

Free Audio Book - "7 Habits"

You can download the entire audio book of "7 Habits of Highly Effective People" by Steven Covey from Audible right now at http://tinyurl.com/cpc3pb

I highly recommend this book to anyone. I originally read it in college for an ethics class because the instructor said he couldn't teach ethics unless we all lived by principles first. I have listened to the audio book and re-read the paperback many times since, so much that one of my employees told me the book looked more worn that his Grandmother's Bible . . .

It does require you set up an account on Audible first (if you don't already have a login), but you shouldn't have to pay any charges to enjoy this book.
