So a long time ago I promised to remix a few links each weekday from my favorite site, Popurls. Then, a flourish of activity changed everything– in a good way– and the project had to simmer on the backburner for a while… I trekked across the country, started working with ABC and HBO, launched Starring… blah blah blah… the rest is history… And now, 6 months later, I’m ready to begin– if you are.
Today’s 5:
2008 Presidential Candidates- With info about each one – so comprehensive! Me likey! Note how it says “unofficial” under Gore. He really should’ve announced at the Oscars. Would’ve been unusual… and for a man that’s, well, kinda boring I’d say that might be a good idea? hmm?
50 Things to do to Stop Global Warming — I’m surprised how easy most of these are to do.. no brainers… I don’t know if I can compromise my bath-time though… I know I should!
60-Foot Super Mario portrait re-created in snow – ok I’m biased on this one… shut it!
Dexter Walks (first dynamically balancing biped robot) — this is f-ing awesome! The first robot who walks like a human has finally found his land legs! Watch the other robot push Dexter down– oh wait, he can’t. Booyakasha!
Documentary shows possible Jesus tomb (AP)– I’m confused. Jesus isn’t magic? He’s fo’ real! (maybe)
Ever since you announced this popruls has been my home page. I love it. Glad to see it getting to it.
Cool links Amanda, some of them take me somewhere I normally don’t go, always fun to do that. I saw a video on “Table of Malcontents” of a screensaver which you may find interesting. It “shows blog posts lighting up cities on a globe like nuclear flashes seen from space as blog feed headlines rapidly scroll down”, very neat looking.

Sarah Silverman is annoying.
