Comments now less of a hassle

Hey everyone (all 3 of you),

My apologies for being slow with moderating comments — for some reason I’m not getting emailed when a comment is submitted like I should be. Consequently, I’m opening up comments to be unmoderated. Unless comment spam becomes a problem, I’ll keep it that way.

So there, now you have no excuse for not saying your piece…

A different way to aggregate the news

dead_sea_newspaper_sm.jpgUpdate: my friend Alex pointed out (thanks, Alex) that, contrary to what I wrote originally, in fact 554 front pages from 54 countries are available from the Newseum. So hey, it’s even better!

Sure you can go to Google or Yahoo and read news from around the world. But did you know you can see the front pages of 386 newspapers from 39 countries? Well, you can, thanks to the Newseum.

By the way, I found this site from a journalist who made a virtual newspaper vending machine with a Mac Mini and an LCD screen. Check it here. (via Make)

Hipster video

FujiyaMiyagi_thumb.pngI gave up on videos once they all became “Bentleys, ass, cut”, but a band named Fujiya & Miyagi have a way-cool video you’ve got to check out.

I can’t tell whether the domino segments are entirely CG or bona fide stop-motion — what do you all think?
