TV. Food. Pop Culture.
I think it’s time for a new Twitter goal. Last year, I made a fuss about wanting to reach 1,000 followers (with at least one being a noteworthy celebrity), and happily I succeeded on both fronts (thank you, Blair Underwood). Now I’m at it again. I’m restless for more followers, and no, it’s not because …

From Crackle: 1: The Criminal Lifestyle Not so long ago, I posted about my friend’s upcoming web series The Bannen Way. Well, the project finally debuted on Sony’s online site Crackle (which contrary to what you may believe is NOT a tasty snack), and it’s very impressive. I mean, it features Robert Forster and Vanessa …

Over the weekend, my friend jash became the proud new owner of a webcam, and for the first time, he was able to enjoy the many splendors of iChat’s video-conferencing feature. He tested out this marvel of technology with me, and it didn’t take long before he began playing with the backdrop effect, as made …

Forget the tribute song by The Game and Chris Brown. Don’t bother with the one hour specials cluttering up the TV landscape. Ignore the flowers on Hollywood Boulevard. The best ode to Michael Jackson so far is a nifty website called Eternal Moonwalk which has compiled user-submitted moonwalks into one random, never-ending sequence that both …
Martha Stewart just called Bill O’Reilly a “bone head!” Well, actually, her “dogs” said it. And they didn’t even really say that. They just made fun of him on their “blog,” and Martha linked to it on Twitter and called him a “bone head,” which was really just a reference to what the dogs were …

What’s more fun than complaining about Facebook? Nothing, really. So that’s why I’m doing it again! Granted, I got most of my issues off my chest last week with my Top Ten Bad Things About New Facebook, but there are a few annoyances that have crept up since then that still need to be addressed. …
My friend Heather started up a new blog recently called Eat Your Feelings, and quite honestly, it’s sort of tailor-made for this audience. Basically, it’s a cooking blog, but these aren’t just your typical recipes. They have some backstory to them, such as the “Chicken with Mushrooms for When the Bitch Deserved It,” which features …
A funny thing happened after I heavily critiqued Facebook earlier today: my account went haywire. HMMMM…. Have I been blacklisted from FB? Time will tell…
Last week, Facebook overhauled its site for the second time in only about nine months or so, and the reviews are in: it sucks. And it sucks in the most insidious ways. You see, at first glance, things don’t seem too drastically different. Navigation and usability is more or less the same (unlike the last …
