Japanese Girls Horny By Sound

On this japanese show a lot of japanese girls has been hypnotized to become horny by sound. Luckily they are crawling on the floor wearing really short skirts. Isn't that nice.

X-Series

Although my previous experiences with 3 Mobile left me with contempt towards the company, the coming x-series seems really interesting. Maybe they will actually provide the promised services this time. It does seem a little too good to be true, though - I'm looking forward to see the pricing scheme. X-series is launching 1. december in UK, 1. quarter of 2007 in DK.

Erwin Neutzsky-Wulff

Du skal se det her interview fra DR2's Deadline, om du er bekendt med forfatteren Erwin Neutzsky-Wulff eller ej. Og hvis ikke, så bliv det.

Musicovery

I like online jukebox/radio sites like Last.fm and friends. Musicovery is of the same idea, but I like their interface better. You place a dot anywhere you like on two axes, one going from dark to positive, the other from energetic from calm. You can choose hits, non-hits and dicovery mode, genre, as well as period of time. You can also see whats music is coming, and skip ahead to songs that catch your eye.

Cookers

Guess it's time for an indie movie recommendation - and I'm talking the original sense of the word indie. Cookers is a paranoia story about two young outlaw drug addicts, who steal a van-load of chemicals used to cook crystal-meth. The couple sets up a lab in a rural farmhouse intent on cooking a batch of grade-A speed. Strange and terrifying things start to happen at the house and they don't know if they're hallucinating from all the speed or if it's real... The brilliant meth addict portrayal warrants a 9 out of 10 in my book.

The Departed

The Departed is the new Scorsese movie, and it is good. I give it 9 out of 10.

Casino Royale

The new Bond movie Casino Royale is excellent. It has been some years since I liked a Bond movie, but this one reinvents the series. 9 out of 10 in my book. 8.1 at IMDB. 95% at RottenTomatoes.

Lauren Hill Racist

I can't believe people believe this ****. Lauren Hill never said anything racist in any interview, MTV or otherwise. Seriously - if she did, it would be everywhere on the net. Here's a short article on the history of the rumor.

Please. Treat unsubstantiated facts as fiction.

"Claim: During an MTV interview singer Lauryn Hill said, "I would rather die/have my children starve than have a white person buy one of my albums."

Status: False.

Origins: In 1996 a caller to the Howard Stern show claimed Lauryn Hill of The Fugees made anti-white statements during an MTV interview, to the effect that she rather see her child starve than have a white kid buy her album."

What? No, I'm...

This one goes out to all you annoying people out there, apparently severely troubled by the demanding combination of technology and manners.

Tinyurl

Tinyurl transforms those way-to-long-to-type urls into the format tinyurl.com/xxxxxx.

http://www.ddavid.dk/2006/11/opus-life-is-life.html becomes http://tinyurl.com/y5h3om.

E.g. this could be useful if you put urls in your MSN name, as these aren't clickable. You get the idea.

Cinemateket/Filmhusets Still-Foto Samling

Ved du godt, at Cinemateket - bedre kendt som Filmhuset - har en virkelig imponerende still-foto samling? Hvis jeg husker rigtigt, fik jeg engang at vide, at det er en af de største i verden. Jeg har været derinde nogle gange, med en liste, jeg havde skrevet hjemmefra. Man får nemlig ikke lov til at komme i selve arkivet. Man spørger om lov til at se stills fra en bestemt film. Arkivaren henter dem, og et par hvide handsker, man skal have på, når man behandler dem. Sejt. Jeg har endnu ikke ramt en film, de ikke har haft i hvert fald nogle stills fra. Priserne er rimelige, synes jeg (jeg kan ikke huske dem præcist), og du kan få print helt op i plakat-størrelse, fordi det er rigtige fotos.

How Cellular Phones Work

The article Cellular Telephone Basics taught me how cellular phones actually works. Nice. As a shorter, but not superficial, intro to the subject I also recommend How Cellular Phones Work from the excellent site Howstuffworks.

Onelook

Onelook Dictionary Search is an astonishingly useful ressource. It let's you look up an english word or term in 98 different quality, online dictionaries in one go. It also offers a powerful wildcard search.

Carnivale

You *need* to check out the two-season series Carnivale. The setting is a travelling carnival in 1934 America. Think freak show, magic and prostitutes.



HBO ended the show after the second season, which is a real sign of character.

Carnivale first season at the time of writing costs 24£ at Amazon.co.uk. Pretty cheap. Get it.

Youtube & Co

Seriously - you need to spend some hours roaming the wonderful archive that is Youtube. An amazing amount of movie, tv and home video clips, music videos and everything else, more or less.
Other similar sites include MetaCafe, iFilm, Google Video and DailyMotion.

Movie Stuff

If you like movies, here's a couple of ressources.
IMDB - Internet Movie DataBase is one of the most impressive databases online. I have never drawn a blank - not even with regards to obscure, 'foreign' movies.
Rotten Tomatoes is a collection of movie reviews from a lot of (mostly American) sources. The generel opinion at the site is sometimes surprising. Be prepared for some stereotypical hammering. Metacritic is a similar site.
Filmz is a danish site, which works. It brings you news on movies and the industry.
I also recommend Apple's trailer-site, if your in the mood for trailers and teasers. The amount is pretty impressive, and it's updated.
For further movie information, check the movie label below. Also check the video label to see the clips on this site.

Last.fm

You need inspiration as to bands you didn't know you liked. You go to Last.fm, enter the name of a favorite band and the music starts to play.

Crazy Japanese Game Show

"Terrible things happen on the sadistic Japanese game show Silent Library. And, because it's set in a library, the contestants must remain silent."

Drop Spots

Drop Spots is nice, little idea. You find a place outside to hide a little thing, then map it at Drop Spots, maybe with a note attached. Then somebody replaces it with something of theirs. There is only one drop spot marked in Denmark, but you could just start one in your area, if you want.

Psilocybin

Klubværelset på P1 handler i denne omgang om de euforiserende psilocybin-svampe. Denne her udsendelse er, så vidt jeg kan huske, det bedste jeg nogensinde har set og hørt i de danske medier om emnet! Jeg troede ikke, at man kunne komme så langt omkring emnet på så kort tid. Godt gået, Rasmus-mayn.

Nedenfor en lille time-lapse video af hjemmedyrk.

Sore Loser

Faith Hill clearly thought she deserved the Country Music Award for Female Vocalist of the Year.

Borat

Borat is all the rage right now. The movie Borat!: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan premiered in the US recently, so you can get it with your favorite filesharing app. I hated the Ali G character, but judging from the interview below, and the 8.5 rating on IMDb - at the time of writing #119 on their all-time top 250 - it's worth a shot.

Group Polarization

Interesting concept: Group polarization. Group polarization effects have been demonstrated to exaggerate the inclinations of group members after a discussion, especially when the group is biased.

CDMA - Code Division Multiple Access

Today I am the proud founder of CDMA. CDMA is an organisation of individuals in love with the net. A society of super-users, you might say, as true skill comes easy with passion. I think it is strange, and irritating, that an organisation with the only requirement being strong romantic feelings towards the net does not exist. Well, now it does.

Web Science - Field of Study

It's good to read that Tim Berners-Lee, creator of the www-technology, is leading an initiative to make web science a field of study. I've been waiting for this. I'm totally joining these guys.

"The Web has become such a force in commerce and culture that a group of leading university researchers now deems it worthy of its own field of study.

The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Southampton in Britain plan to announce today that they are starting a joint research program in Web science."

Very Short Stories

Wired has this article on Very Short Stories. Six word stories. I really like the concept. Example from the article:

Gown removed carelessly. Head less so.

Gamelio

You can bet money on your Counter Strike or Quake skills at Gamelio. Interesting.
