Pete's Links: Links to make you laugh
I have some good stuff this week. If you want some laughs, make sure you go to this first link:
Let's Paint TV
http://www.youtube.com/user/letspainttv
This is my new favourite show on the Internet. Hell, I've even gotten used to surfing the web on my Wii just so I can sit back and watch these shows on my TV. The premise for this “show” is that inspirational host, John Kilduff, sets out to spread motivation and creativity by showing how he can multitask. On every episode, John exercises on his treadmill while painting some kind of picture, making some sort of food (or drink) and taking viewer's phone calls...ALL AT THE SAME TIME!
I guess this cable access show is getting bigger and I want to help spread the word. I have to give a warning that some of the phone calls he gets turn out to be either vulgar or racist because some viewers just want to get the most shocking thing on TV, I suppose. Kilduff usually doesn't let the negativity of the “obscene” phone calls get to him, except for on one episode appropriately titled, “Let's Get Frustrated at the Callers.”
For great inspiration, good laughs and mind boggling TV, make sure you check this stuff out. For more information on John Kilduff, you can also check out http://www.letspainttv.com, and http://www.myspace.com/letspainttv.
Kijiji
http://www.kijiji.ca
I don't think I've mentioned this before, so I'm going to plug another tool people are using on the net to find rare stuff and sell their crap! Kijiji allows users to post what they're selling and then allows the interested buyer to get in contact with the seller in a safe manner in order to show interest. It's no Ebay and there's no way to pay via the Internet (unless both parties have Paypal accounts, I suppose), but it's an interesting change and another method of tracking down rare items for collectors.
XBOX 360 Gamercard
www.mygamercard.net
This is a really cool site for those gamers who have many different social network sites and want their gaming rep to be shown to the world and see where they stand against others in the world in terms of overall gamer points or just in certain games. This site will waste some gamer's time, that is if they can get away from Halo 3.
