Hologram Google Earth is an amazing prototype computer display. Forget about multi-touch if this is a real display it will blow that away. Amazing video.
Where the Hell is Matt? is a video of a man doing a silly dance in a large number of countries. Courtesy of Boing Boing. I always love silly projects like this. It’s really quite interesting as he was paid by Stride gum to actually make this video. Either way it’s entertaining and good for a grin.
