Quarter Life Crisis

An awesomely brief podcast featuring John January of American Copywriter talking about the "Quarter Life Crisis" that twentysomethings go through when they finish school.

Good stuff.

You're only as old as you feel.

Poetry in motion.

An incredible cliche of a title, wouldn't you say? Regardless, I love this website. It documents a project which takes poetry written by Former Poet Laureate Billy Collins, and gives it an animated treatment.

I love the fusion of media. The written word, the spoken word, the animation. It's beautiful and fun and stimulating.

This YouTube video is disarming. It illustrates two things that I'm not proud of:

1. Subliminal messaging works, even on advertisers.
2. People who work in advertising are really like those two guys.

Pretty remarkable.

She has much back.

This is what the internet is meant for. Talk about remarkable. The editing is solid, the song very well done. This is the kind of entertaining stuff that my industry needs to be spending time creating. I love it.

Online comics.

Comeeko is perhaps the greatest thing since sliced bread. It allows you to upload pictures and create a comic out of them. For example:



If you think I'm not going to mess around with this, you are sorely mistaken!

I think I might have to make a series of Office Ninja comics.

Twitter.

Just an update that I still find Twitter remarkable. It's a great little web-app that people are flocking too. Lots of talk and chatter about it making blogs obsolete. I don't know about that, but I do enjoy Twitterville quite a bit. Great way to stay up to date on those you find interesting.

If you sit in front of a computer all day (or any part of the day, for that matter), it might be worth checking out.
