Jimmy Fallon and Engadget: raw and uncut
Engadget, one of my favorite Tech Blogs, and Jimmy Fallon bust out the funny and talk about the Sony P.
“We had a chance to get on the show floor at CES and chat with Jimmy Fallon (the new face of late night television as he’s taking over for Conan O’Brien in March) on his gadget tastes, stock purchases, and jacket size. We hope you enjoy as much as we did.”
2 commentsSome Music to Look At
Last night my fiance and I went to The Metro (a great venue, if you haven’t seen a show there) in Chicago to see Thrice. She bought me tickets for my birthday, and I enjoy their music immensely. Thrice was unbelievable and if you haven’t heard any of their music, please check them out. Everything I wanted them to play, they did (Broken Lungs, The Artist In The Ambulance, The Whaler, Burn the Fleet and more – Check the set list after the break). Their stage presence is awesome, the lyrics hit home (as they usually do) and their melodies took center stage. Whenever they come around again, I’m there.
I do want to give a quick word about one of their openers, Pelican. This band completely knocked my socks off. Pelican is four guys who play unbelievable music, which you are forced to listen to (in a good way), the one catch, they have no lyrics and no singer. These guys can play and play well. I suggest if you have a chance, check them out on iTunes or online. Check their newest video after the break.

What could make a game of Missile Command more exciting? If you said playing it on a gigantic multi-touch screen, you’re probably right. Luckily for you, someone has gone to all the trouble so you won’t have to. A gentleman named Steve Mason has created a large-scale version of the game that can be played by hand using multiple contact points.

I saw this a couple weeks back, and recently saw it come up again on Joystiq. It’s one of those games that you can’t help but play over and over again. Check it out, you won’t play another game again: You Have To Burn the Rope
