  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote How to make weapons out of trash
    This week on Joerg Sprave's Slingshot Channel, we get a bunch of weapons that you can make out of ordinary trash. Like the video he did on making weapons out of office supplies, this one will amaze you about how you can prepare yourself for the oncoming apocalypse, whether it's zombies, robots or other such doom and gloom.

  • keithshaw keithshaw answers Re: What would be a good video editor for small business use?
    Like Jack12's answer, I'd recommend iMovie as well - it comes free on new versions of Macs, but the price of a Mac is worth it in order to get the iMovie software. I'd say about 95% of your video projects can be completed with iMovie.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Watch the SpaceX Dragon connect to the International Space Station
    It's quite appropriate that on the 35th anniversary of Star Wars, we get another historic moment in the realm of space, but this time in real life.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Star Wars premiered 35 years ago today
    We got so caught up in all of the May 4th "Star Wars Day" festivities a few weeks ago, that I almost forgot that today is the 35th anniversary of the premiere of Star Wars.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Tetris as a live-action movie
    Last month we brought you a "trailer" for the fake movie featuring "Pac-Man" as if it were a live-action film. Today we bring you "Tetris" (hey, since they made a movie out of Battleship, why not see all those other games make it to film?)

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote MIT scientists solve the Ketchup Bottle Dilemma
    I know there are a lot of problems in the world that need solving, but it's still nice to see some of the little ones get solved - like how to get all of the ketchup (or mayonnaise) out of a glass bottle.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote The story of life via 873 stock photos
    The folks at Getty Images have posted a very cool ad for their stock photo image service, telling a story of a boy, a girl and their life through stock images only. Called "From Love to Bingo", the film is fascinating to watch.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote It looks like John Malkovich is preparing to murder Siri
    The latest batch of celebrity ads pitching the Siri voice recognition function features John Malkovich, who has made a career out of playing off-kilter (dare I say creepy?) characters. In these two ads, Malkovich sits in a room alone, talking with Siri about life, and asking Siri to tell him a joke.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Watch a cool stop-motion Super Mario Brothers video
    Check out this cool video that takes the first level of Super Mario Brothers and converts it to a stop-motion animation. It's so good that at first you don't realize that it's stop-motion. A nice touch is the "fail" at the end of the level, which most of us have experienced when playing this video game.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Lego Batman 2 gameplay footage hits the Web
    Video game companies release a lot of gameplay footage of its future games, and for the most part I tend to ignore the footage. But in this case, when you have footage of a Lego game and a Batman game, I can't resist posting them. Here are a bunch of videos of gameplay from Lego Batman 2, coming later this year, courtesy of IGN Entertainment:

    There's a lot of videos out there of yesterday's solar eclipse (sadly, this East Coaster wasn't able to see the eclipse), but this one is the coolest one I've seen so far.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Classical music performed via video games
    I've always been a fan of classical music, ever since I got hooked (pardon the pun) on "Hooked on Classics". So what a kick it was to see this video, in which the "Can Can" song is performed by the sounds of Super Mario Brothers.

  • keithshaw keithshaw wrote Foosball video game looks like it would hurt your wrists
    Most of my foosball experiences took place in my college dorm basement freshman year (and that short period where Network World had a table in the breakroom), but now it can move to the living room with the upcoming release of a foosball video game for the PlayStation 3.
