The internet in 1969

This video, created in 1969 shows an early version of the internet. Interestingly some of their vision is really accurate - multiple monitor screens on the desk, shopping by "pushbutton", paying bills online. You can tell they're still attached to handwriting rather than typing, but you can't get everything right. Enjoy! Many thanks to Niki Black for pointing this out, and to Geeks are sexy for the original post

The great gig in the sky....

Pink Floyd's Richard Wright has moved on to that great gig in the sky..... Just another brick in the wall I guess:

Running up that hill as interpreted by Placebo

I really enjoyed this video of Placebo and their interpretation of Kate Bush's "Running up that Hill".  It really is a different feel for an awesome song and shows that her music translates well, regardless of who performs it - it's not just her unusual and unearthly voice that makes her music work.

Misheard lyrics

One of my favorite categories of video on youtube or google video is the category of Misheard Lyrics. This is where you take a popular song, and put subtitles in with what you THINK the lyrics are - without actually looking up the lyrics. I also have a weakness for Bollywood movies and music. I guess it's my general fascination with Indian culture and food. In any case I stumbled across a curious combination of misheard lyrics and Bollywood music videos today that I thought I'd share. Check out the video - and be aware that the lyrics are what the author THOUGHT he heard. It is NOT a translation. For the ultimate original MisHeard lyrics vidoe check out this one too. Enjoy - every once in a while we need a laugh to cheer us up - hope this one tickled your fancy... Cheers, Lee Drake CEO, OS-Cubed, Inc.
