Remember Star Fox 64? Of course you do. That also means you remember one of the most iconic phrases in video game history. 4 words: “Do A Barrel Roll.” Well apparently Google remembers them too. Go type it into Google on Chrome or Firefox. Watch the madness ensue. Maybe not madness but still really funny. Gotta love you Google. Keep it coming.

College kids probably spend more time on Facebook then they spend drinking, frickin, and studying combined. Scary thought, but I don’t think anyone is gonna dispute me. Seeing as how all these college kids are spending half their days on Twitter and Facebook, it kinda makes you wonder which schools do it best, and which schools are really ruling the space.
Too legit to quit is right. We should have stopped hearing the name MC Hammer years ago yet he continues to make the news every so often for reasons that grow more and more ridiculous with time. The story this week is either a genius PR stunt or the ravings of a washed up lunatic. Mr. Hammer is launching his own Search Engine which he hopes will compete with Google and Bing.
I know what you’re thinking. With keeping up on my Facebook, my Twitter, my Linkedin, why the fudge would I need another social network to occupy my time? If you indulge me though, I’ll attempt to explain why Chime.in, a brand new social network that launched officially today. Its CEO, Bill Gross calls it an “interest network” that allows you easily access posts that are both quality and relevant to your interests.
Today was officially named however, by decree of California Governor Jerry Brown, Steve Jobs Day, for a dude who happens to have convinced America that owning one particular computer makes you more special than owning another. The iPhone is pretty cool but has this gotten out of hand?
You’re probably sitting there wondering “WTF?” But strangely enough, this video sums up Jobs’ life pretty well – aside from obnoxiously fantastical liberties that the animators took with the details. What blows my mind is that this was uploaded on August 25…but Jobs didn’t die until yesterday. Someone in China knows what’s up…
In mourning of the passing of Steve Jobs, watch this video of his Stanford University commencement speech. An inspirational speech from one of the most important entrepreneurs of our time. A Blackberry one day will go back to being just a piece of fruit. The apple won’t have the same fate because of Steve Jobs. #RIP
“Children’s Hospital” is a hysterical show on Adult Swim held down by two of my favorite comedians named Rob: Rob Corddry and today’s Top Tweets star, Rob Huebel. I haven’t caught much of Rob’s stand-up, but the next time he swings through New York, I’m there. The dude has 276,000 Followers and has earned every one of them. Don’t believe me? Read on?
The iPhone 4S is nothing huge, nobody besides Apple will tell you it is, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some awesome new tweaks and perks that this new contraption had to offer. So if you happen to have an upgrade ready to go, here’s everything worth noting about the iPhone 4S.
The reason Justin Timberlake, of all people, was cast to play Sean Parker is because only he could conjure up the Badassitude it would take to play the genius pirate millionaire. I could give you a whole history of his rise to tech stardom, but just to illustrate my point, I will give you the small sample size of 7 days. Thesis statement: Sean Parker has done more Boss things in the last week than you’ve done in your whole life.
