10 chick flick cliches you won’t see in “He’s Just Not That Into You”

February 6, 2009 @ 1:00 am

Tiffany sent me this funny video from the website of the movie, He’s Just Not That Into You. In it, Justin Long, Bradley Cooper, and Kevin Connolly sit down to show you the 10 chick flick cliches that you WON’T see in the film He’s Just Not That Into You. The three of them go down a list of cliches and then subsequently act them out for you as if they were the characters in those roles.

I sorta trash talked the film earlier, but after seeing this video, I really wouldn’t mind going to the theaters to watch this.

Search Google like it’s 2001

Google is celebrating 10 years of their search technology by allowing people to search their oldest Google index, which dates back to 2001.

As many of you know, the web changes drastically from day to day, so going back to a complete snapshot of the “web that Google knew” from all the way in 2001 is certainly telling. I did a search for ‘doobybrain’ to see what I was up to back in 2001 and it definitely rang true to my habits back then — music and application customization.

Back in 2001, I often frequented sites like Dmusic.net, Deskmod.com, Deviantart.com, and Customize.org. Those sites were very different than they are today and Google’s 2001 search index brought me back to a time when all I went online for was to download new themes and skins for WinAMP and to participate in forums on Dmusic about the rapidly changing digital music scene.
