You may remember awhile back when I posted about this Pi YTMND, or you may have just seen it on your own, but it turns out the song used on that page actually comes from a band named Hard n’ Phirm. This video is great. You should watch it right away.

The answer to that question is no, but these guys can play a mean iPhone and Nintendo DS. I gotta say that it’s really nerdy, but lot’s of fun to watch and listen to. They seem to have gotten a great response from the video below and are planning to release more songs in the future. Hopefully they release more songs before they’re forgotten. C’mon, we all know how internet fame works.

How would you describe your life’s story in six words? “Not Quite What I Was Planning” is a paperback book from writers from the famous end to the unfamiliar with their life story in just six words.

If you have ADD or know someone who does, it’s a great coffee-table book and conversation piece. Buy it here.

It’s truly amazing how everyday household items can be transformed into a remarkable piece of art; from trash to silverware to bottles and cans.

The Red Bull Art of Can is a contest open to anyone and everyone who has a passion, a flare, a love for all art and creativity. So get ready to weld, glue, tape, fold, and cut your massive collection of Red Bulls (from countless evenings of all-nighters and drink mixing) and create your piece of art to enter into the 2008 Red Bull Art of Can contest. Deadline is April 6th and the showing is July 11-28 in Texas.

Don’t you hate it when you’re driving down the road and all of a sudden you see a cop sitting in a parking lot. You say “Oh shit!” and try to slow down, but it’s already too late. He’s right behind you with his lights on. If you want to lower the chances of this happening again, you should check out this Speed Trap Mashup on the Njection website.

They have incorporated user submissions of speed traps into Microsoft Live Maps to give you little red dots in areas known to have the cops watching out for people like you… or actually maybe more like me. They mentioned also that in the future, they will be using GPS devices to keep the system up to date.
