SMule: Ocarina [Zeldarian] from SonicMule, Inc. on Vimeo.
Yes. These people really are playing a virtual Ocarina by blowing on their iPhones.
No. I don’t have any reason to make this up.

Updated: New Video replaces the one that got yanked. I think that’s the theme from Zelda.
In case you missed it, this is a viral video for Absolut Vodka. I find it odd that a viral video can have a roaring tiger graphic and yet still be to subtle.
Now if they could only come up with a Takashi Murakami tablet…
Hi all. Flat Ben here. You may have heard of Flat Stanley. Well, I’m kind of like him. I just spent the last week with my Aunt Dawn and Uncle Stirling in New York City. I can’t wait to tell you all about the things I did while I was there. I just hope I can remember it all! Here it goes…
Copywriter Kate Lummus and I (along with invaluable support and insight from Misplaced Planet‘s Shaun Boyle and Benni Pierce) created a TV spot that we had hoped would send us off to Southern France for a week of all expense paid, sunburned, glory.
But he’s right about pretty much everything else. Below is an instructional rap video from The Poetic Prophet on the importance of proper coding. Seriously.
For all you open source nerds, this one is for you:
I haven’t had a chance to write here for awhile. Work, life and Pinkomag.com have all been keeping me pretty busy. I did get a chance this morning to upgrade my version of WordPress to the new 2.5 Release Candidate 1. Pretty huge. So far it is working great. Very slick and easy to work with. The navigation options in the admin screen have been cut in half (always a plus) and they finally FINALLY included an imbed video button! Check it out for yourself.
If you’re interested in helping the people over at wordpress by testing the new code, download and install Release Candidate 1 of WordPress 2.5, and join their testers mailing list.
When I first saw the new Macbook Air, I was immediately reminded of the first generation Ipod Nano. As you may recall, the original Nanos where so small, and so lightweight, that people would put them in their pockets, forget they had them, and sit on them. I remember visiting a Mac store not long after the Nano was introduced and seeing a long line of people at the genius bar with half an ipod in each hand.
I wouldn’t expect the same thing to happen with the Macbook Air. For one thing, modern pants technology does not allow for people to put full-sized laptops in their pants pockets. However, I wouldn’t be surprised to see companies like Marware coming out with some sort of rubber-skin-laptop-protectors. If all else fails, you can always use a Manila envelope.
