If you thought Guitar Hero was cool...

Someone just showed me this video.

I'm speechless...

Tal just triggered a burst of nostalgia when he posted a link to Day of the Tentacle's, my all-time favorite game, intros.

If you haven't played the game, or worse, don't know what the hell I'm talking about, you're missing out on the best games ever produced. You don't this kind of quality anymore... sad...
I've already voiced my opinion about abandonwares before and getting back to that post, I really wonder how this game would look&feel on a new platform like the iPhone.
Any iPhone owner up for shooting a quick video? Yossi (could be a topic for your show ;)) ? Please...

Day of the Tentacle Intro - Part1:

Day of the Tentacle Intro - Part2:

Don't these two videos just make you want to download ScummVM and play?

I just had to share today's Dilbert:

(I think Mordac works at our IT organization... ;) )

I just got this great video (via Facebook):

Got to love this "Will it blend" videos series...
So what do you think? How about an iPhone smoothy? ;)

The guys at Microsoft sent us this video about a year ago.
Now its on YouTube so I can share:

What would happend at Microsoft if we could really share the pain...

Bill Gates walked off, on-camera, after the interview with John Stewart on the Daily Show.
Some funny takes about this:

And another one:

Hey Gates, What the hell?!

Technorati : Bill Gates, Daily Show, Microsoft, Vista, Windows

Saturday Night Live did an iPhone parody:

Technorati : Apple, SNL, iPhone

It's always funny to see this kind of unwanted critical error windows. Especially when its Bill Gates presenting or, as in this case, on a huge screen at Times Square... :)

Another hilarious CES\iPhone comedy video...

Wait for the punch line at the end...

Technorati : CES, Colbert, Comedy, Humor, iPhone

Technorati : Apple, iPhone

Even though the NY Times Reader application is very cool, I think there are better ways to reach to the hearts of the people and sell them this new WPF technology.
After all, I think most downloads for this app are done by techies like me, who may spend few hours playing with it just to see the capabilities and then move to something else. Maybe New Yorkers may find this a bit more interesting but still, the evangelists at Microsoft could have thought of a better application to spread the word.

Sports Illustrated Reader for example. now that would be a true killer application!!!
It appeals to the vast majority of the world, not just techies and New Yorkers and even though it requires installing beta software (.NET Framework 3.0 RC1, the reader itself) I'm sure there won't be any complaints...

Now thats the way to approach the grassroots

Technorati : .NET 3.0, Microsoft, WPF, WinFX
Del.icio.us : .NET 3.0, Microsoft, WPF, WinFX
Ice Rocket : .NET 3.0, Microsoft, WPF, WinFX

Turns out I was born in the year of the Dog (1982).

Here's what the chinese calendar site has to say about dogs:

Dogs are honest and faithful to those they love but they tend to worry too much and find fault with others. They make ideal secret agents or business people.

Uhhh I'm such secret and mysterious business man.... Maybe dogbert should be my new role model.

Btw, 2006 a Year of the Dog too... So I guess I should expect a year full of secret plottings and money making deals

Thought this was funny and worth sharing:
