Honestly, this is brilliant – while the clip itself has been mashed up to cover everything from Hitlers replacement motorbike to his choice in gaming consoles, this subtitling by Laurel Papworth (original article) has a bunch of agencies across the ditch resorting to ad-hominems – a classic sign of “oh-bollocks-what-do-we-do-now”.

Disclosure: I have met and spent time with Laurel during a workshop a few years back and was well impressed then, as I have continued to be as I’ve followed her commentary on all things social media. For those interested, I’d recommend following her posts, and subscribing to her podcasts.

I was reading a CIO Magazine article this morning on ‘The Cloud’, and found this wee video embedded in the article of Larry Ellison (CEO Oracle) talking about ‘The Cloud’, he certainly calls a spade a spade…

The embedded video came across my Twitter feed this morning (thanks @rgoodchild) under the heading of ‘The Perfect Geek Rapper’. Now while m0serious may not be in the same league as NerdCore rapper MC Frontalot,his material will still coax a smile from those of us who have an interest in site design, UI and Ux – as well as imparting some good coding behaviors…

Slap on your headphones and have a listen:

Peace out yo… (Man, I’m soo hip and street and stuff… *makes complicated gesture with fingers*)

So much doom and gloom in the media around the impending (or present?) financial crisis, I thought some of you may appreciate the following two clips which explain the current situation quite well…

Enjoy

I got sent this brilliant clip from The Onion today in relation to my previous posting on if we can trust people to backup their content or not. For the reality impaired, the Onion is a spoof site, but funny nonetheless – but just imagine if something such as this did occur to some of the major data hosts on the web.
