Things I didn't post - Week 2

Jan

So I thought I would do a quick little post about all the great things I found around the Internet this week and what I’ve been up to lately. I’ll try to do one of these every single week. It’s going to be split into categories for clarity.

Photography:

Top 30+ Flickr Tools to Enhance your Flickr Journey - This is a great article that a friend sent to me on Twitter and I really think you should go check it out.
Top Tips for Choosing a Tripod – a list of great questions that I’ll definitely remember when I go out to find me a good tripod. As I wrote in the [intlink id="61" type="post"]Nikon D60[/intlink] post I’m looking for a great tripod.
Yosemite 17 Gigapixel photo – I know this a little old but it’s still amazing and I love how you can see all those people. Amazing
124 “Best Photos of 2009? Blog Posts - Great for the weekend if you have some time to kill, that is so many blog posts.
High-Res Satellite Images of Haiti Capital Show Devastation From 423 Miles In Space – This is such a tragic event and it’s been really hard for the world to understand how much devastation the earthquake actually have caused.
Odd Romance: Lady Gaga Partners with Polaroid - I’m still not sure I get this but I guess Lady GaGa is the head of relaunching the Polaroid.
14 Hours of Walking in Stop-Motion - Just amazing video of the the longest street in the world.

Youtube videos that amazed me this week:

Guy Has Glasses Tattooed On His Face – When I watched this the first time I couldn’t believe that it was real but then I read some comments on it at Mashable and I guess it was a fake. People are even talking about it being a RayBan Viral Ad but I’m not so sure about that.
Tilted Twister – LEGO Mindstorms Rubik’s Cube solver - Lego + Mindstorm + Programming + Rubik’s Cube = awesomeness x10. This is really nerdy yet so awesome.
Avatar Makeup Tutorial - In the beginning I thought she was serious but then I realized that she was just making fun of all the hardcore Avatar fans and it’s actually quite funny at times. “their human equivalent to having really bad acne”
Drawing Illusion - I can’t believe I haven’t seen this one before, because that is some awesome drawing skills.
Tiny Gallon breaks backboard – New Year’s Eve 2009 – This is just plain crazy, not exactly new but still crazy.

In other news:

DisplayPort 1.2 spec blessing for creative pros - Sounds like some good news for the new MacBook (Pro)
The best of the best and the worst of the worst of 2010 CES - Only coverage of CES 2010 I’ll do – check it out.
