This is the original artist. Had no idea. He passed away today so I feel we should share this gem in his memory.

Enhance Your Lighting – GE: http://youtu.be/egIY7ushchU

Possibly one of the best video clips I’ve seen this year. Also,  Jeff Goldblum is hot.

Sigh…. You guys…

I’m seeing a trend continue online that I feel I can no longer ignore. The trend of the

person who asks too many questions when the answer is “LITERALLY RIGHT IN THEIR FACE

“.

Please….

If your favorite indie store/merchants post something on Instagram letting you know that it’s now available, introducing new merchandise or even simply showing the selection they have on hand, please don’t be that person in the comments with “how much” or “tell me more about it”. Don’t.

Know why?

Because it’s on their website. Or in the details.
True story.

I can’t tell you how many times recently I have seen a dozen or so questions typed out on someone’s twitter or Instagram feed to someone by folks who don’t even ATTEMPT to look up the answers on their own. Too many simple people with smart phones. Their website is listed in their profile people!

Maybe it’s just me. I’m the type where I like to search down the rabbit hole and look for the answer before someone asks the question. But a lot of this seems to be common sense. At least try.

Also…

Stop posting on people’s pictures with your “tips and tirades” on their lives. A pregnant woman posts a pic of her lunch with an orange soda, and now there is a stampede of people demanding she abstain from such. Someone posts a pic of their favorite outfit. Ya’ll start posting that they shouldn’t wear those white shoes with that blouse.

Meanwhile too many of you keyboard gangsters are in sweats, wearing plastic hair and sneakers that looks like space boots while chain smoking. Hmph

Stop putting bacon in everything. Stop.
You don’t like sushi? OK that’s fair.

Does not mean you get to tell me that I can’t have sushi. Do like the others and order the teriyaki plate and sit silently.

When crossing the street, put your phone away.

Don’t worry, be happy.

Hey fellow tech geeks!

OK, for those in the the know I am a big fan of Google and their latest gadget the Chromecast is an awesome example of why. It’s affordable ($35.00) and fits right into the HDMI port on your TV. You can use your phone or tablet as a remote and stream Netflix movies from bed!

The device is available at Best Buy and Amazon (sold out for now online)

Heads up for those that like their privacy as well as those who simply like to be aware of developing trends…. Especially the invasive ones.

A company had developed a format that will allow them to not only tell when a consumer has viewed a video ad, and but uses facial detection and claims that it will also be able to tell the race/sex of the viewing consumer as well.

Yes. Thru your computer and phone.

I know you all are going to be shocked by the answer.

Stunned.

Disbelieving eyes and frozen looks of shock.

That by the way, was sarcasm…

Check out what the latest victim of Kanye West and his “ways” says about working with the rapper, and why the designer found working with Kanye “challenging”.

Kanye West strikes again!

Funny…

Hey all…

I know this has been a dramatic news week with all the news that’s been coming out thus week but there is one huge.. HUGE thing that has received little to no coverage whatsoever.

You no longer have the right to remain silent.

I repeat… That Miranda part about you having the right to remain silent? No longer applies.

Seriously. The Supreme Court put an end to it this week.

Sigh..
