Elijah Wood in New Apples in Stereo Music Video: Dance Floor

If you saw me at my desk this afternoon then you would no doubt notice all the chair dancing I'm doing to the new Apples in Stereo song, "Dance Floor." Besides being recorded with retro-futuristic instruments like vocoders, vintage keyboards, and Mellotrons, the video is all sorts of geeky. In it, actor Elijah Wood plays a middle school science teacher (corduroy jacket, sweater vest, and all!) Read more

America Ferrera Gets Brainy With Brain Age and Her DS

Who knew America Ferrera was all about the bling? While getting brainy with Brain Age, America battles a pal to see who can complete the math portion quicker (and find out who has a younger brain) in this upcoming spot for Nintendo. I love how she has pimped out her metallic rose DS with all that bling — how geek chic! See how old her brain really is in this exclusive sneak peek at the Read more

Professor Wikipedia Is a Haphazard Mess!

I feel like I have such a love/hate relationship with Wikipedia — the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit. I love how it's easy to access and offers quick facts about everything and anything, but I'm wary about trusting it as a credible source of information. I think most of you feel the same way as me, since 66 percent of you said you trust it to an extent. Well what if Wikipedia Read more

Nokia's Fourth Screen Commercial is Epic

I'll always be a Nokia fan; it wasn't long ago that they had the hottest handsets in the world, and they continue to make high tech, dark horse designs in cell phones; sadly, affordability is often a hurdle. But I have nothing bad to say about their "Fourth Screen" commercial below — all good things, actually. I could go into how epic and moving it is (I know, I just said a commercial was Read more

Kids and Robot Costumes, It Doesn't Get Any Better Than That

I love the weekend, and especially Sundays, why? Because it's the perfect day to post fun and adorable, videos like this! Over the July 4th weekend, Vimeo user Jared Foster got all the little ones in his family together for what else but a Robot Parade! I guess it took a lot of orchestrating from the adults - who are in the background directing the kids - but boy, oh boy are we thankful this came Read more
