Inbox of Immaturity

Immaturity is replaced by unproductivity. (And made up words.) I’m too busy talking about how awesome Facebook Chat is to find silly videos. Maybe it’s just me but as much as it’s been speculated and suggested, I didn’t see this coming. We talk a lot about “surprising and delighting” consumers/users/people in the ad world. Facebook just did so.

Inbox of Immaturity

Three the hard way and late in the day…

via the silly entertaining Too Much Rod Benson.

via a posting on fire Kevin Rothermel (working link to t-shirt)

via new favorite Kevin Driscoll, though the “Tay Zonday On a Ronald Jenkees Beat” post title was a cruel tease.

Inbox of Immaturity

Could call this the inbox of creativity, sneakiness, or nastiness for now, since we’re kicking it off with Patrick Ewing Jr.’s jam last night in the NCAA Dunk Contest.
Okay, onto the silliness…

This World of Warcraft dancing video has been around for a while, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen it. Thanks to Nien for passing along.

This trailer for The Foot Fist Way from Matt has now put this movie on my radar, especially since I’ve yet to see friend-favorite, Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.

And while the Design and the Elastic Mind exhibit keeps getting press, craplinks reminds us not to forget the MoMA’s permanent collection.

Inbox of Immaturity

It’s not that I’ve gotten any more mature, I swear. It may be that my friends have. But likely it’s it’s that we’ve all gotten too busy at our jobs and planning/attending weddings/bachelor parties to indulge in (and more importantly, sift through and filter down to passing-along-worthy) all the immaturity online.

Thankfully, Noah has come to the rescue after seeing one of the College Humor guys at the PSFK conference yesterday show Minesweeper: The Movie.

Also, in case you haven’t seen this yet, the winners of 2007 YouTube Awards have been recently been announced. Whatup Tay. Whatup Dash.

You may or may not have heard that the guy behind previously-featured, Stuff White People Like, has sold a blog-themed book for an advance of $350,000. Read what other internet meme have made that book money here at Observer.com. Now I know why I’m going to ROFLcon. Anyone else going, hollister at your boy in the comments.

Unnecessary Quotations

This is a nice thing to wake up to. An IOI-featured site, featuring a picture of mine from Cusco, Peru. It’s funny, I went there and still am not sure if I should roll with an ’s’ or ‘c’ in the city’s spelling. Regardless, I love the title they picked for their post.

See “The” Restaurant where I brought in this new year here.

Speaking of pictures, if you enjoy taking photos and want a chance to win some Jittery Joe’s coffee, check out Photojojo for a contest related to the theme of yesterday’s post.
