Put a shot of blackberry cordial in the glass before pulling the pint.... 'tis grand, I'll tell ye that fer nuttin'.

Finally we know what purpose all of those Blackberries mouldering on store shelves have been put to. And these guys aren't exactly iFixit - that's for sure.

So basically they had 100,000 blackberrys that were going to the dump and they figured out a way to rig them into a commercial!

Gotta hand it to them, that's pretty amazing.

I'm definitely not a fan of the rampant consumerism and the idiots on both sides who equate their phone with their identity... but it seems to me that the amount of vitriol and anger in this video suggests that TheAmazingAtheist thinks about this specific topic more than most fanboys I know. He probably has to, as he has quite a few more people to hate on.

Me, I dislike Apple's policies towards developers (and, hence, their walled-garden) and like the ability to write little apps for my Android phone without a subscription. (I tried out writing iOS apps, but found myself doing a lot of mundane things that you don't have to worry about with Java) I'd have tried a Palm Pre, but it wasn't available for T-Mobile.

I'm very interested to see if Blackberry can pull out of their 'slump', and I'd like to see MS become a player again... But I imagine that I'll stick with Android for as long as they're the 'least evil' (read: 'most free') option.

I would rather my Identity include "The guy that is a fan of Open Source and dislikes Apple's corporate policies" than "The guy that gets so worked up about what other people think about other people that he yells and spits at a camera until he's red in the face"... but that's just me.

Listen close, as life turns its pages
Makaveli here, kickin' rhymes for the ages
Seen things in stages, wise words spoken by sages
From SkyTel to BlackBerry pages
Your crew don't phase us
We'll make you bustas pay us
Run up in your spot like C.J. from San Andreas
I wrote this song a long time ago
A real long time ago
Feel me!
I wrote this song a long time ago
It was the dopest song I ever wrote... in '94

What can a nigga do
when half the people voted for George W.
It's a bitch, fuck George W.
-- can't be true --
I wanna choke him, because he's a snitch
I'm talking about George W. Smith
From city council, he ran in '93
Out in Oakland,
you probably didn't hear about him

I wrote this song a long time ago
A real long time ago
Way before Slim Shady was in demand
Way before we dropped baloney on Afghanistan
I wrote this song in '94

How am I doin' this?
Look around the club, see everyone in the place
Showing 'Pac love got a smile on my face
The girl in the miniskirt has bad taste
Because her shirt don't match
And there's a puddin' stain on the back
What the fuck is that? It might be doo-doo

And you in the back, you ain't shit
You bought a gin and tonic
but you didn't even tip
And if you hit this table one more time
then the record might skip Might skip...
I told you, stop hittin' the table

Tupac Shakur
I wrote this rhyme in 1994
I'm not alive!
Thug life!
Dave Chappelle, that ain't your wife
A married man, you've got two kids
Go home!

I wrote this song a long time ago
A real long time ago
Way before Beanie Sigel had to do a bid
Way before Dave Chappelle had two kids
(Don't give him no coochie)


DJ: 2Pac rest in peace!
2Pac: Ok, I will!



Slightly * nsfw lyrics, but what the hey.

Introducing the new Apple iPerson complete with multi touch and volume control, doesn’t it feel good to touch, doesn’t it feel good to touch, doesn’t it feel good to touch.

My world is so digital, I have forgotten what that feels like.
It used to be hard to connect when friends formed cliques, but now it’s even more difficult to connect now that clicks form friends.

But who am I to judge…

I face Facebook more than books face me hoping to book face to faces, I update my status 420 space to prove Im still breathing; failure.
To do this daily means my whole web wide world would forget that I exist. But with 3000 friends online only 5 I can count in real life, why wouldn’t I spend more time in the world where there are more people that LIKE me. Wouldn’t you?

Here it doesn’t matter if I am an amateur person, as long as I have a pro-file, my smile is 50% genuine and 50% genuine-HD, you will need blu-rays to read the whites of my teeth, but im not that focused.

Ten tabs open, hoping, my problems can be resolved with a 1600 x 1700 revolution, this is a problem with this evolution, doubled over, we used to sit in tree tops, till we swung down and stand up right, then someone slipped a disc, now we’re doubled over at desktops.

From the Garden of Eden, to the branches of Macintosh, Apple picking has always come at a great cost.
iPod, iMac, iPhone, iChat, I can do all of these things without making iContact.

We used to sprint to pick and store Blackberries, now we run to the Sprint store to pick Blackberrys, it’s scary.
I can’t hear the sound of mother nature speaking, over all that Tweeting, and along with it is our ability to feel as it’s fleeting.

You would think these headphone jacks inject in the flesh the way we connect, the disconnect, power ON. So we are powerless, they got us love drugged. Like e-pills, so we e-trade, e-mail, e-motion like e-commerce because now money can buy love, for 9.95 a month – click!

To proceed to checkout – click! To X out where our hearts once were – click!
I’ve uploaded this hug, I hope she gets it – click!
I’m making love to wife, I hope she’s logged in – click!
I’m holding my daughter over a Skype conference call while shes crying in the crib in the next room – click!

So when my phone goes off in my hip, I touch and I touch and I touch, because in a world where there are voices that are only read and laughter is never heard or I’m so desperate to feel that I hope the technologic in reverse the universes so the screen can touch me back, and maybe it will, when our technology is advance enough to make us human again.

ah Blackberry thou doth need more megapixels...

The video is so obligatory that you can pull it up on your Blackberry? You either have internet access or you don't, unless YouTube is censored there, so that's really a nothing statement - which is fitting, as it's a nothing story.

Isn't smoking an appetite suppressant?

>> ^Darkhand:

I knew that was going to happen before it did because I saw what the driver in the black SUV was doing. Anyone else catch it?


So you saw him texting on his Blackberry too huh?

I'm only 30 but certain aspects of tech are already beginning to shoot by me. I'm not on Facebook and I don't have an Iphone or a Blackberry or a phone with Android. I don't have a brand new car with voice automated GPS. But it's only just begun. Like Ant said, by the time I'm 40 - I don't even know.

Yeah, I wanted to post this but came to the same conclusion.

I'm glad it made Top15 though. I have been telling this story repeatedly. It is so cool I can't hardly stand it.

Talk about hijinks!
The guy who figuted out how to screw with this vote knew that the Reps would manage to avoid the embarrassment. So after getting permission from the Dem leadership, he stayed silent. Five minutes before the vote was to take place, he sent out a blackberry text saying 1) vote late 2) vote present. Then he sent folks out onto the floor to explain.

The Reps didn't see it coming. They had to scramble to avoid having this super conservative budget pass.

Seconds after it was defeated, the head of the some conservative Rep committee tweeted something like "ah, too bad, we tried to get it passed, we really did, maybe next time."

For those who blather on about the liberal press -- I looked for this story in the NYTimes the next day -- wasn't there.

Besides the joy of Reps getting egg on their face, there is the positive benefit that the Reps will perhaps be a bit more careful in the future -- the Dems have figured out a strategy to expose the lie and the rift inherent in the deep split in the Rep party.

This is so much fun, I can't hardly stand it.

The story in the description is interesting, but none of it comes through in the video so I can't see any reason to vote for this.

Anyway... how did he photograph stars during the day, or do filters do that for you? I know nothing of photography beyond pressing the middle button on my blackberry...
Pretty sure that was actually footage from night and the bright light source was the moon. The other daytime shots didn't have any stars in them.


I have access to a mile-long lake in the middle of the Canadian forest and the nearest habitation is over the horizon so there's very little light pollution. A friend and I went in once in the middle of our winter, and with the incredible northern constellations like Orion on full display, the stars are almost that bright. I'd love to see what some timelapse exposures would look like in there.
