Hello again. Obviously my last resolution failed miserably, although I can’t say that I am 100% upset about that because I’ve had a fun yet extremely busy semester as it was, and I didn’t focus on school work nearly enough.
Anyway, as I stand now, on the brink of completing my college education, I’m not convinced I should continue a personal blog. On the one hand, I have more ideas then ever, on the other I am hopefully going to turn some of these ideas into businesses and be too busy making millions (and running blogs for those companies) to spend even more time on personal things. But as I looked back on all the videos I’ve watched this week while coding various websites, I couldn’t resist writing up a little endorsement for them.
So, here are some of the video’s I’ve found inspiring of late:
The Toronto Comics Arts Festivals asks cartoonists about what they use to draw.
Toronto Comic Arts Festival: Pencil it In from Toronto Comic Arts Festival on Vimeo.
(I can’t get it to embed, but you should watch Beer Wars on Hulu, as well as most of the other subculture documentaries they host such as Darkon, We Are Wizards, and Circus Rosaire
Although it’s a fairly common story across the American economy (and most likely the world) it was interesting watching this documentary about the people fighting against the dominant beer companies.
A extremely short documentary about a variety of alternative lifestyles that all revolve around quality of life over quantity of possessions.
Roll a D6 from Connor Anderson on Vimeo.
Yes it’s been making the rounds and everyone has watched it by this point, but I literally could not stop listening to it endlessly the first twenty-four hours it was out. I would still really like to buy it, but it appears only to be available through itunes at this point, and not only do I have more issues then I can count with apple in general, I refuse to download itunes, and therefor my money is completely uninteresting to them.
And that’s it I think…
