Did you clear out your comment spam? When I imported all my old wordpress data I'd forgotten to get rid of those 20,000 comments...

Wow, I didn't even know I was looking for a plugin to do photo albums.

Thanks Scott!

To access the episodes directly without the flash interface, try http://clearification/flv/epX.flv where X is of course a number from 1-4.
5&6 are apparently not up yet.

Re: Michel Gondry: Be Kind Rewind & Master of Space and Time | Laughing Squid

I have that paperback of Master of space and time - it's one of Rucker's best books, though it went out of print for some time. Despite having some basis in credible(-sounding) science, it's much more readable and less dense than some of his more recent work (Frek and the Elixir comes to mind).

I've been looking forward to a movie of this for a while, though I really hope Jack Black isn't the protagonist (as rumors claimed long ago). This movie calls for someone smarter and a little less... manic. I could see somebody making a case for him as mad inventor from Envy, but really the role needs someone else.

And of course the Gary-brain attack is just screaming out to be Gondry-ized.

If you haven't already, check out a piece he did called "The Cube".

Sounds like it's time to throw together a quick Columbus Bloggers meetup, especially if the Squid would be picking up the tab again...

Odd, it's watchable on this page but unavailable on the youtube link.

Was this a late April Fool's joke? This was a joke, right?

Yet to be produced? Perhaps that very one, as I'm sure I've seen smaller versions of that that made little hemispherical ice cubes sold before using that very same trick.

The real question is: is it stackable?

SYNC magazine has a bunch of fake gadgets and products every month. This isn't real.

So this is, what, a virtual reality tub? With the screen so big you'll swear those other people are there in the tub with you?

Cheaper units are available from LEDShoppe and Fifthunit, among other places. Much cheaper, though I cannot vouch for their quality (nor either merchants').

"completely free to use"? What a concept... free use of air. Does this mean that somebody somewhere considered charging people to stand in something the size of a porta-potty without even something to sit on?

Clever, neat looking, but think of how useless it will become once it begins to accumulate the usual coffee table junk?

Thanks!

I'm looking forward to the plugin info for adding to the admin pages - thinking about creating a theme/plugin editor for the admin.
