Click to View "Don’t Copy That Floppy"

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

I’ve just run across a video that was actually shown to kids in their schools years ago. My best guess (based on the computers and screen contents in the video) is that it takes place in the early 90s. It’s called “Don’t Copy That Floppy”, and it explains to us some important things about piracy. [...]

Click to View "Cyriak"

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

Cyriak, a flash animator of his very own genre, creates amazingly unique animations from photos and bits of film. His style can’t fully be described by words, but “surreal” does a decent job. Some may find these videos a bit disturbing, just a note.
This video gives you an idea of what kind of brilliant insanity [...]

Click to View "InterfaceLIFT Wallpapers"

Friday, March 21st, 2008

Ever wish that you had dozens, even hundreds of high resolution (HD even) wallpapers without paying a dime? As a photographer and Photoshop-guru, I find myself typically only using my own wallpapers. When I want something else, however, I am quite picky. I tell you this because almost everything at InterfaceLIFT meets or exceeds even my [...]

Click to View "Verizon FiOS Rising"

Wednesday, March 19th, 2008

FiOS is slowly making it’s way to every corner of the Internet. Neighborhood by neighborhood it is taking a chunk out of Comcast’s (substitute your region’s Cable internet provider) monopoly wherever it goes.

Most cable internet is approximately 630KB/s down, and 40KB/s up in my area. If more than one or two devices are using the connection, the upload gets overloaded. If you’re [...]

Click to View "Songbird and SkreemR"

Sunday, March 16th, 2008

Mozilla, the company that brought us Firefox and Thunderbird (as well as many less-notable programs), has ventured into the media player business. Enter Songbird.

Songbird’s interface clearly takes a cue from iTunes, however is a far cry from it. It integrates a web browser with tabs and search, functioning very much like Firefox, including a specific [...]

Click to View "The Magician"

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

A brilliant flash animator created an excellent flash animation about a magician wildly killing people and then being overtaken by some random guy. It is absolutely hilarious, but be forewarned that it is also quite gory. I’d not heard of him, hopefully he’ll continue to be so creative. You can see the video here.

You can [...]

Click to View "No-Tech Hacking"

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

Before I begin, let me emphasize my title here. “NO”-tech: absolutely nothing in this video covers something you won’t have. As well, let me warn you that it is an hour long, and once you begin watching, you will not stop. If you hack, sneak around, or are just a generally curious person, this will [...]

Click to View "Ted Stevens and Robert Byrd"

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Ted Stevens, if you don’t remember him, was an aging senator from Alaska (he has since resigned, video below). He is most famous for explaining the Internet, because we clearly all don’t have such a keen understanding of things as him. If you missed that post, here’s a link.
 Ted Stevens, looking out for his home [...]

Monday, February 11th, 2008

If you don’t know who this is, clearly you’ve been depraved of a lovely sermon on how the Internet works. If you use the Internet, and you obviously do if you’re here, I recommend you watch this immediately. Note that the first video isn’t amazingly entertaining, but to really understand the second one (which is [...]
