For Those Who Like to Watch
… Here’s the film I made for Darryl’s Hard Liquor & Porn Festival. This three-minute short contains adult themes and content, but no nudity.
Sorry!

Want to know what it’s like to be (almost) a billionaire? Check out this video from YouTube founders Chad and Steve…
It’s nice to know that the reckless days of internet land grabs aren’t over just yet. And I’d like to remind the good folks at Google that every website has its price, including this one!
Love that. 18 months ago I remember wondering outloud “what is this youtube” and now 1.65 billion later. Amazing. What a great vid look at the smiles on their faces. Good for them.
In days of old I would painstakingly tweak my travel photos in Adobe Photoshop and upload each and every one of them with a thorough description and appropriate links. I wouldn’t even have considered uploading videos, as the large file sizes would eat up my available server storage faster than you could watch them.
But this past weekend I placed my precious travel souvenirs in the very capable hands of Flickr and YouTube, both free services and current darlings of the social media set. It was such a painless experience that I’m starting to rethink this whole blog re-design thing.
Considering that this very page has permanent links to both my Flickr and del.icio.us accounts, and that I’ve also had a free Blogger account since 2003, maybe I can nix my monthly web server bill by having AC.ca re-direct to a start page that will list all these other accounts as links.
I’ll try to mock one up this week to show you what I mean…
Now with share-y, taggy, web 2.0 good-ness!
I’ve got about forty photos up so far on my Flickr page, and also a couple of videos on YouTube. The photos are a bit of a work in progress—I’m still adding descriptions and I don’t know the names of some of the other authors at the NALIS reading.
Little help, Ray?
NALIS reading, in order of appearance (I think):
Willi Chen
Lakshmi Persaud
James Aboud
Ita Sadhu
Grandmaster Wat
Austin Clarke
That’s the stuff… Thanks man!
Joyce Davidson? What an obscure (un)pop-culture reference. Was this song your request? And did the band play the theme to “The Shulman Files” as an encore?
Okay everyone, which would you rather read about today—the latest on my Linux adventures or the most popular movie in Hong Kong?
Yeah, I thought so…
This real-life altercation on the upper deck of a Hong Kong bus has been viewed in its many incarnations almost six million times! Click on the screen grab above or right here for the version with English subtitles.
And like every other internet meme, the Bus Uncle video now has its own portal page, rife with mash-ups, remixes and ‘official’ merchandise… Enjoy!

Excellent video! I like everything in it, from the framing to the pacing, to the suprise ending.
This made me laugh like the Ukrainian grandma did at Darryl’s party.
