CardFunk Delivers More Christmas Cheer

Jason Bean — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:12:42 +0000

Not too long ago I wrote about the CardFunk website and all the cool and animated cards you can create and customize to send to friends. They’ve just updated their content and now have more Christmas cards to get your CardFunk groove on.

If you’re not familiar with what happens, you upload a picture of yourself and some friends and embed their images on some dancing, animated characters on the card. They usually dance and sing and it’s all around a good time to be had by all.

When you watch these cards, you can’t help but bring a little smile to yourself because let’s face it. Anything dancing, dressed up in Christmas cheer and a face that looks like you or your friends has got to be funny! If you disagree, well Bah-Humbug to YOU Mr. Scrooge!

One of its latest cards is Christmas With The Stars. Appropriately imitating and spoofing Hollywood icons and legends, this animated card allows you to transform you and your friends into dancing celebrities such as Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe and Bob Marley.

Another is the techno-inspired Dancing Christmas Toys. This card is set up in a Santa’s workshop where familiar entertainment figures are showcased and spoofed. The user will get the chance to be Captain Jack Sparrow, Betty Boop, Wonder Woman, Spiderman or Anakin Skywalker after uploading his/her photo.

Last one is the Wild West Christmas. Having the Great Plains as a backdrop, the user can have a lot fun having his/her headshot placed on dancing cowboy or cowgirl to the tune of a very funky music.

How can you go wrong with a line-up like that? So go on! Get moving and start bringing some holiday cheer to your friends! It’s all waiting to be uncovered and delivered at CardFunk.com

World’s Most Expensive Commercials

Jason Bean — Wed, 09 Sep 2009 17:41:00 +0000

The other night I was watching TV and saw one of my favorite commercials from the Super Bowl. This morning I saw a link for a story about the world’s most expensive commercial. Are these commercials worth the costs?

The original story talked about a Honda commercial that I don’t remember ever even seeing on TV, and I love Honda cars. The most expensive commercials listed on this website are really entertaining, but are they worth it?

Let us know what your favorite commercial is and why. Did the commercial make you purchase something that was being advertised? After all, that’s the purpose right?

Here’s a very cool video that’s really no video at all. It’s a movie that’s made from 4000 still photographs edited together into a smooth video.

I don’t know why people turn off the ability to have these videos embedded sometimes, but you should check out this video of some pretty funny and painful sports bloopers.

I had to turn away a couple of times. Just can’t deal with some of the skateboard falls. OUCH!

If you liked that, then you’ll probably enjoy this one as well.

Amazing Feats of Juggling Expertise

Jason Bean — Wed, 02 Aug 2006 15:33:10 +0000

I was recently re-introduced to a gentleman known as the Piano Juggler. No, he’s not tossing Steinway’s up in the air, but playing songs by bouncing balls onto a piano keyboard. Remember the scene in “Big” with Tom Hanks in the toy store. Think that, but throwing down balls on the keys.

Anyway, you can find out more about the Piano Juggler here, or if you’re in the Indianapolis area, he’ll be performing almost every day at the Indiana State Fair at 2pm and 4pm.

Then someone sent me a link to this amazing juggling performance on Google Video.

It’s like interpretive dance, but juggling.

Very impressive!!!
