If you are looking for Webinometry on this map, it was sunk somewhere just south of Miscellaneous Blogs on a fateful journey from the Sea of Zero (0) Comments to the eastern coast of Tech Blogs. You see, I was shipping my blog content to a competition with an arch nemesis regarding who has the most mathematical references per post. To throw him off, I shipped it under the disguise of an ice cream freighter. I was informed by my trusty accountant Whimperman that it was sunk by a sea monster. Reaction below:
Wario Land: Shake it has done a brilliant job in creating this masterpiece of online advertising. Absolutely love the creativity these guys had to build this. Check it out here
This past weekend was one of the most outrageously fun times I’ve ever had, and it showed how really unbelievable it is to have great friends. I think everyone there was looking forward to this wedding for months and it 100%, without a doubt, did not disappoint.
Here’s the video montage of the wedding festivities. With the massive cooperation of everyone at the wedding, Mohs and Laura had no idea that this was going on (you’ll see them at the end, Mohs in his sweat drenched shirt and orange tie, and the lovely lady in red Laura dancing up a storm). What started off as a cutesy gag gift for the bride and groom eventually turned into a “what could we possibly get away with without them knowing” full on puppet wedding production, all entirely made up on the fly.
Even the near fatal miscue moments turned into some fantastic shots, like the entire family picture, the wine glass clinking kiss with Amy (sitting right next to Laura), and my personal favorites, the party barn shots with Mohs at the bar and Laura on the dance floor (brilliant work by Gabs on those two). No risk, no reward.
The couple’s first look at this video had them, as Mohs put it, simultaneously laughing and crying. I glad to see the art of puppetry hasn’t lost its magical touch on our souls. And if this whole web application thing doesn’t work out, maybe my next career path can be puppet wedding videos. I’d love to hear company names and tag-lines for that.
I haven’t seen a better description for the intersection of narcissism, ADHD, and stalking. The t-shirt (being exceptionally modeled) can be purchased here:
One of my most favorite comics online, xkcd, does a great job creating funquations (please see About Webinometry if you are not familiar with funquations). Here’s their latest one:
I came across this from my buddy Hamish, who by the way just finished his MBA at London Business School and is starting an exciting investment banking job at Credit Suisse. Congrats buddy!
UPDATE: My friend Justin just informed me that the actual formula in here is .002 + e ^ (i * pi) + Sum (1/(2^n)) from n = 1 to infinity. This reduces to .002 -1 +1, which is much more interesting than .002 + (some random number) + 1. This is a brilliant response to George Vaccaro’s unbelievable encounter with Verizon’s billing department.
