Of course this was found on digg.
Someday when I also have far too much time on my hands I want to count the number of cuts in this video - it didn’t seem like very many.

Thank you Cory Doctorow for giving us this. It’s been around for a while, but I still get a kick out of it. He encourages us to place this on emails, stick it to those foot-long reciepts, and put anywhere else it seems fitting.
On a MMW kick
Ever since my friend said he saw them in Chicago and I found another CD they did with John Scofield I’ve been on a huge MMW streak. Here’s whatever I found on Seeqpod that seemed new (to me), rare, or live….
Merlin Mann of 43folders.com posted this to his blog, and as a mac newbie, I’m also posting it here for further exploration. Some of these I know about and some are new. Merlin said it’s a good list, so I’ll try at least some of these.
Thanks to Ed Vielmetti for bringing these to A2B3 this week. What a great bit of really cheap swag. Checkout PocketMod.

Color Palates Made Easy
So this from MacBreak weekly - a podcast I’m listening to right now, so I’ll have to find the links for it later. Evidently one easy way to get a color palate is to find a piece of artwork or image - or take picture of something with a nice sense of color you’d like for a web site and then upload this image to the “Big Huge Labs” palate generator. As the name suggests, this supplies you with a color palate to use in building the site.
Next I’d be interested in seeing a shortcut tool to add the palate into the css of a WordPress site theme.
