Hashtags are a community-driven convention for adding additional context and metadata to your tweets. They’re like tags on Flickr, only added inline to your post. You create a hashtag simply by prefixing a word with a hash symbol: #hashtag.

Uses:

Conferences: “rubbishcorp’s slides on guff were great. #presentation”
Events: “#blogfest blogfest is ace.”
Memes: “My #themeword for 2008 is dinosaurs.”
Context: “I can’t believe anyone would bother reading this far #rubbiscorp.com”
Recall: “Buy some fags (cigarettes). #todo”

So there.

GO!VIEW is a new service brought to you by Sony, and powered by Sky. So now you can download top entertainment stuff via your Broadband connection to your PSP.

Sweet.

This little beauty counts number of pages on your blog or website that contain swearing and compares it to the total number of pages. The result indicates approximately what percentage of pages on your website contain naughty words. That number is then compared to a percentage of all the other websites who have used the Cuss-O-Meter, giving you an idea of how foul-mouthed you are when compared to the rest of your interwebs.

Bums.

“Tables charting the chemical elements have been around since the 19th century - but this ‘modern’ version will have a short video about each one”.

If you don’t like the bike action you’ve gotta love the Linkin Park soundtrack. Gaz Top 360 Rad, isn’t that what they say…

The same as Summize, which I guess having just bought, they simply repurposed.

“Summize is a popular service for searching Twitter and keeping up with emerging trends in real-time. Like Twitter, Summize offers an API so other products and services can filter the constant queue of updates in a variety of ways. The Summize service and API will be merged with our own and integrated under the Twitter brand”.

owngig came about owing to the phenomenal rise of the private gig, where an artist plays a small show often in a unique venue. Up until now they have been the domain of the super-rich, so we felt compelled to source these shows more democratically through the power of the crowd and put them in the reach of true fans.

Just tell us about the acts you want to see, where you want to see them and how much you would be willing to pay. We regularly track and group requests and negotiate on your behalf with artists to commission exclusive shows wherever your demand dictates.

Hopefully this service is a benefit to the artist also, in that in enables them to understand where in the world their fan base is located and consequently tour in places they might otherwise miss out on. We hope you like the concept and are willing to give it a go. We’re confident it can work if enough people get behind it, ensuring owngig.com becomes a direct link between artists and real fans.’

That Radiohead video, you know, the one shot on a ‘laaaaaaassssser’.

‘No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes’.

Via AR again…

Nice.

Well executed.

It’s been a long time since I have posted anything that helps me get brilliant at Dinosaurs. This well bad makes up for it.

Enter a long word, receive shorter synonyms.

Old skool, but funny.

This is an ace (planning style?) Blog from the lovely people at HyperHappen. I was going to post some of their stuff today, but there’s quite a lot, so it’s far less hassle to just push you to them and then you can see for yourself.

Be sure to put them on your reader.

‘In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon’s hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview about peace. 38 years later, Jerry has produced a film about it. Using the original interview recording as the soundtrack, director Josh Raskin has woven a visual narrative which tenderly romances Lennon’s every word in a cascading flood of multipronged animation.’

‘Raskin marries the terrifyingly genius pen work of James Braithwaite with masterful digital illustration by Alex Kurina, resulting in a spell-binding vessel for Lennon’s boundless wit, and timeless message.’

I love him.

PS. BP are wankers.

This dude got bored with his homework and distracted by Blender, resulting in the above animation of New York. The movie was created using use one stock photo (yes one photo) and Blender 2.46, which I have and obviously I’m now going to learn.

Wow.

Enkin is a system that runs on Android and that augments reality in real time. It geotags and displays infomation about your surroundings based on what it’s pointed at. It does that by combining GPS, orientation sensors, 3D graphics, live video, web services and a novel user interface into an intuitive navigation system for mobile.

It’s smart, but just so you know, it doesn’t make you sexy or interesting.

Super Monkeyball is, as always, simple, addictive and frustrating.

If you’ve played before you’ll be familiar with the set-up and this version is much the same; 5 worlds each containing 11 stages - which are unlocked linearly. The accelerometer controls, although natural, are difficult to master and you’ll find yourself falling off the edges. Stick with it though, as it does get slightly easier as you get used to the ‘crazy’ tippy action. That aside, the graphics and gameplay are impressive and way better than anything on a phone to date - which kinda sets the tone for iPhone as a potentially ace gaming platform.

It’s the first big game for the iPhone, and although a little clumsy, it’s pretty good.
