linkable laughter

Last night I was in bed watching Hook on my computer (thank you very much netflix on demand you are the love of my life), and a friend sent me a link to the video below. With all these views and how awesomely entertaining this is, I can’t believe I’ve never seen it before. I don’t think I need to say anything more…so enjoy the laughter and amusement that this video will bring you!

party for your ears and eyes

Happy Friday all!! So today I wanted to post a video I saw on my friends blog TouchE*plode. The music makes me really happy, and the video is wondermazing (so good I had to mix wonderful and amazing).

…ps if you don’t like it, give it a chance because towards the end the colors in the video will make your eyes go, “oo…ooo…yessssssss!”

Yippity DoDa it’s friday! Have a great weekend!

this is my happy pill, i am now sharing it with you (use when laughter is needed)

I’m totally obsessed with this video. If you’ve seen it, you should watch it again. If you haven’t…I wish I could experience what you are about to.

I think it’s like potato chips, you want to put the bag down, but as long as there are chips left in the bag you gotta keep munching away….you can’t help yourself.

Hi, my name is Emily and I’m addicted to Drinking Out Of Cups (that’s when you say…Hi Emily).

who is magibon?

So I was on youtube last night looking at the new videos from my subscription channels and I saw a response to magibon from iJustine (Justine Ezarik). Of course immediately I youtube search magibon and find a ton of responses to her videos….Finally I find her channel, which is called MRirian, not magibon, and watch some of her videos.

I agree, she is adorable, but I still don’t get it. She has a video with her nodding and making squinty faces that has over a million views! That about blew my socks off! Seriously though, this magibon youtube phenom is insane, and now it’s coming to the US. We can’t understand what this little pipsqueak is saying, but people are still posting responses to her, mimicking her videos, and posting video responses. I understand the soldier boy fad, I get the ghost ride ya whip fad, but I have to say this magibon thing may take a while for me to really get into…I mean I can understand why it would be fun to mimic her, in fact I might just do that, but before I jump on the band wagon, anyone have any insights as to why she is so popular? Or how she got so popular? I’m really in the dark here…

I show, you show, we all show

Here’s a site I found accidentally (which is kind of how I find a lot of my sites), and haven’t had more than 5 min. to look at it. But, my gut instinct is telling me it is cool enough that it shouldn’t sit on a sticky note and wait to be written about. WeShow, and purely on first impressions with a little digging around the site, is cool. I guess it is best compared to youtube, but the difference being in the layout, search capabilities, and content on the site. It seems to have the most bizarre and obscure video, and video clips; from the scene in Willy Wonka where Violet becomes violet, to the new web trend of lip synching. But, the part about the site that I really like right away is that everything is categorized for you. For example, I found that Willy Wonka clip under the category Classic Videos: Cult Videos. Awesome categorization!!!

I’m going to spend some time on WeShow to see what I think, but I have a feeling it’s going to be my go-to site when I want to see The Panasonic strip tease commercial (for example…ha). Spend some time on WeShow, and let me know what you think!

can ya Digg it?

Sorry for those digitally dynamo dudes and dudettes that read this blog, but again I’m posting for the not-so-savvy readers out there. Digg has been around since late 2004, and plays a huge role in daily digital happenings. It’s a site that allows you to have a personal profile, similar to your social networking profiles, but focuses its energy on the “Digging” aspect(which I will explain momentarily), rather than your personal profile. You can see Digg all over the internet; from the New York Times online to PopSugar to Lolcats, they all have Digg This! next to articles, photos, videos, or anything else you could love or hate. When you push the Digg This! link next to whatever it is you are Digging (you know what digging means…like yeah man I totally digg that), it brings you to your Digg account and adds your Digg vote to whatever you just dug. The point, and coolness factor, of all this is that depending on whatever gets the most Digg This! clicks (which is like voting kinda, but all over the internet) gets top of the page on the Digg site. Don’t be fooled, this is a big deal. There are the main categories like Images, Video, News etc., but then there are subcategories separating things like technology, entertainment, lifestyle etc. It’s like an all-in-one news source for everything and anything. So, getting rated the highest means that the most people are interested in, and looking at/reading that specific thing. Perfect example is that right now if I look at the main category All than click Top in 24 Hrs. I see the thing that is getting the most Digg This! is a YouTube video called “What Girls need to know about their geek Boyfriends.” It’s cool to see what’s important to most people out there in specific interest areas. And, it also introduces you to things you never would have found online by yourself.

So, can ya Digg it? I know I can!
