Really amazing new technology for image resizing. May not be that appealing to all, but to pixel pushers like myself, it’s definitely worth checking out.

Once again, I’ve stumbled upon some long lost memory on YouTube - last time it was 80’s Cartoon Intros. This time I found a lost scene from Star Wars: A New Hope. This whole scene was on the Star Wars Radio Broadcast, I remember listening to the cassettes as a kid. Anyway, enjoy…

In other news, I’ve switched browsers. I’m now using Flock. Not to sound like too much of a sales person, but I’m really impressed with it so far. If you’re not familiar with it, I’ll give you a brief rundown. It’s basically a different version of FireFox. It’s built off the same architecture, and has a lot more features. I’m really enjoying the Media Browser, as well as the integrated blog tools - which I used to write this post. All of the FireFox extensions I used before work great on Flock so I can use it for my design/developer purposes as well as my recreational web needs. On top of that, my buddy Tim designed the badass interface that really sets it apart from other browsers. He told me that I couldn’t combine Flock with Star Wars, guess I proved him wrong with this post.

First of all, here’s a little background on typography for those of you who don’t know what it is.

If you know of any others that fit into this category, please leave me a comment.

[edit] just saw this video and had to add it to this post:

Funny video for Gnarls Barkley’s version of Gone Daddy Gone. The animation is great, they really did a nice job on the characters. On top of that, it’s a decent song and there’s a great panty shot towards the end of the video

On a different note, I really like how BrightCove has put all of the share/link/email options into the player instead of just linking back to the site like YouTube does.
