Auto-tune the News One, Two, and Three. These are must-see videos. Number 2 is even getting some airtime on the radio. Commercial radio! I hope someone gives these guys a job in television or something, because what they are doing is fresh and hilarious and it needs to be rewarded! They do folk music on…
Toy Story Mania is coming to the Wii. Remember the Wii? It’s that white box that’s sitting under your TV. You bought it, played Wii Sports, and haven’t touched it for the last two years. Here’s a neat article about the tech behind the attraction. “Taken individually, Midway Mania’s individual control systems are pretty straightforward,…
Rap Chop is a remix of Vince’s Slap Chop commercial, and it’s easily the best thing I’ve seen on YouTube this month.
