People want celebrity so bad they are giving away their toys for viewers:

Oprah's Big Give

I'm hearing a lot about Oprah's Big Give, the ABC Sunday Night Show where people compete through reckless generosity. It makes me all gooey inside!

They Call It Moonvertising

Have you ever thought advertising would reach a point in its life where advertisers would actually be contemplating using the moon as a billboard? Well, Rolling Rock has...well at least for fun. Rolling Rock has created a spoof site concentrated on allowing 21+ yr old users to upload their own personal message onto a virtual moon. Certainly an interesting idea, but will users engage it? Some 15,000 plus users have uploaded a message so far. Some have even been tricked as to actually thinking Rolling Rock were considering doing such a thing on March 21st of last week (full moon). Check out the site and see what you think. Do you think it's a good/bad idea?

Ladies and Gentlemen, we have the...Smart car



Mercedes-Benz's "pint-sized" car is picking up interest on and off the web from bloggers of all demographic areas. For a refundable $99, you can actually reserve a place in "line" for one of these vehicles as they are quickly rolling off the US assembly lines targeting the unsurprising major metropolitan areas such as NYC, San Francisco, Boston, and Los Angeles. Already a native of Europe, this car has already achieved astronomical success. With unbearable traffic, narrow cobble-stone roads, and an open-armed view towards these cars, they've fit right in and done more than well at that. It won't be long until, I predict, a green-minded city like San Francisco will be adopting these smart cars. But is the rest of the United States ready for this 71 HP, 1 L, 3 Cy BEAST? Look out for this little rival rolling onto the streets in packs. For more, check out Wired Magazine's "Hands-On Review" of the Smart.

Reunited!

America's most overphoto'd Mom and kids can see each other again. K-Fed is "down with" Brit seeing the tykes if supervised. No word on what the kids think.

KEXP FM Song of the Day

The best podcast you've probably never heard of.



Podcasts range from the inept to the insane, but rarely do I come across one that I religiously look forward to receiving. KEXP is a public radio station broadcast from the University of Washington.

This Seattle based station rocks in all ways that are suave...Though you can't find any Indian Thriller or RickRoll'd, it's a great way to impress your friends even if you don't know anything about music.

Little Hillary and the Gang

Are these sideshow spectacles really worth watching?

If you are over the age of 26 you may NEVER have heard of these brands. If you are under 26, you might be a huge fan. Check out these brands below and let us know how you rate. If you know 1, you're old. 2 means you're just not cool enough. 3 means you're borderline geek. 4 means you da man (or woman). If you get 5, then you rock and you should be writing for us!

Are Vans The World's Coolest Brand?


Vans have taken OFF in the last 2 years. They must be the coolest shoe on the planet because everyone is ripping them off, don't you think?


Seriously though, how many shoe companies are creating pull-on canvas shoes now? Is America just getting lazy (no more tying the shoes)? I bought a pair that i ONLY wear with suits. Seriously.
