This is an awesome new show about the real people behind MMORPG characters in a guild. Even though it seems so true to life it always amazes me that such a diverse group of people can get along. (via Wonderland)

Polyvore is a site where you can easily make collages. The interface is great and the community seems very active. The site seems less then 6 months old.

Watching Arin laugh at the question about his “failing personal relationship and failing business relationship” is just priceless. (video)

Every day 95 percent of the YouTube library is watched at least once [...] six hours of video are uploaded to the site’s archive every minute.

You never see videos about boys leaning how to crochet. Anyway this camp looks pretty awesome.

Dedication (video) – Justin Theroux (dir.), Billy Crudup, Mandy Moore, Tom Wilkinson, Martin Freeman, Dianne Wiest

I can’t tell if this movie looks good or not. I want to like it but something about it really makes me think of Four Eyed Monsters. Something about the editing, music, and story just have that feel to it. If it’s ripping them off I’m gonna be a little pissed like I was watching Dark City after I had seen the Matrix (The Matrix ripped them off). I think I fall on the side of excited though just cause Mandy Moore look absolutely stunning in this movie.

This is a really great video showing the reference material Blizzard used for the WoW dance moves. With choreography having the ability to be copyrighted I’m surprised that they have not been sued. (via Wonderland)

Office Porn – Shows you the insides of web 2.0 and technology company offices.

I want to like AideRSS, an rss ranking service, but they are just too vague on how the service ranks posts. Feed reading is such a niche power user activity that they want to know more about the secrete sauce before they commit to it. Though I think part of my problem is that I am a filter style blogger and I want to be the one finding obscure post and shining a light on them.

1. Gmail – I never close this tab… ever. I swear it’s javascript running 24 hours a day could fill an ocean of memory leaks.
2. iStockPhoto – building some graphics for SugarLoot
3. Google Reader – Another tab I use a lot along with more javascript memory leaks.
4. SugarLoot Admin page – updating contests
5. This Blog – writing this post and kept open for quick link posting.
6. Obligatory Random Article – Always have at lest one open. This time it’s Bruce Sterling’s Dispatches From the Hyperlocal Future. Hard not think of Harvey Feldspar as Jason Kottke.
7. Writely (currently google docs) – I’m definitely a google whore but in my defense I still think of it as Writely. My NaNoWriMo book from 2 years ago is open which I frequently open and pretend like I’m going to write more. I only have 6k words and most of it is notes. I’m not doing very well there.
8. SugarLoot – viewing my changes from the admin page.
9. Google – Spell checking words that I’ve spelled bad enough to baffle FireFox’s spell check which I don’t consider very strong. Google’s algorithm can help me spell anything though.

More fun stories of the Wii’s high demand from Matt Haughey.

I like Wes Anderson but I could care less about his new movie, The Darjeeling Limited.

Study: Iraqis May Experience Sadness When Friends, Relatives Die – “If a woman has already lost one child, the subsequent killings of other children will evoke similar responses,” he said. “In the majority of cases we studied, it appeared as though those who lost multiple kids never actually got used to it.” (via Wider Angle)

John Udell has a great post on hi process editing screencasts.
