Comics:

THE MANY FACES OF THE JOKER

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Have you seen all the new pictures from Christopher Nolan's upcoming "Dark Knight Returns"? Man, that's one good-looking Joker!

They should have taken Prince for Tim Burton's version. He had the face! Jack Nicholson was a bad choice, I thought!

Wikipedia knows all about the Joker!

My favourite Joker so far was Andrew Koenig. Son of Walter Koenig, aka Chekov from Star Trek, in REBLOG: BATMAN - DEAD END

The modern Joker is a dandy without a horse

FACEBOOK SCREWS UP COCA COLA DEAL

Marketingconversation.com: Stupid is as Stupid Does: Facebook’s New Mantra: "The person who was very likely the key decision maker in Coke’s agreement with Facebook’s was misled. Or, at the very least wasn’t told of this major change of this major marketing initiative. This is unbelievable and shows tremendous incompetence on the part of Facebook. (...) Facebook screws up its relationship with one of its major partners, a global brand recognizable worldwide. All in the first month."

MEDIA:

DIRECTOR OF "2 GIRLS, 1 CUP" REVEALED

The Smoking Gun found the guy who produced that short film which became known as "the most disgusting video ever". That always works. Just claim you're more disgusting than the other guys and everyone wants to see your video. BoingBoing has the story.

It's an interesting meme. Mainstream media wouldn't touch that shit. (For those of you who don't know what this is all about, "Girls, 1 Cup" shows two girls eating ice cream that looks like their own poo poo. It's a pretty disgusting special effect. Simple, but quite effective!) It's been on the web for a while though and it caused an endless series of video reactions on YouTube. Those are more interesting than the video itself. That's where the hype is.

And I was looking for a reason to post this one anyway:

Kermit the Frog Watches '2 Girls 1 Cup'!

And of course there's another guy dressed like Darth Vader. That always works on YouTube too!

Crime 3.0 has started! Slashdot about an interesting case : "Hackers can direct the Second Life software to a malicious Web site that then allows them to take over the user's avatar and force it to hand over its Linden cash. Second Life is recommending that users disable streaming video playback in the Second Life viewer except when you are attending a known and trusted venue.

BERLIN:

SCHATTEN AUF BERLIN

Sehr interessantes Projekt:

Was sind die dunklen Seiten von Berlin?

"Um die Jahrhundertwende stellte sich eine Autorengruppe um den Ethnografen Hans Ostwald diese Frage. Das Ergebnis: Die Berliner Großstadt-Dokumente, eine aus 51 Bänden bestehende Sammlung von Reportagen und Studien. Darin beschreiben Ostwald und Kollegen die sozialen Missstände, das schillernde Nachtleben und die Gegenkulturen der Außenseiter im sich zur modernen Metropole entwickelnden Berlin.

100 Jahre später definiert sich Berlin wieder einmal neu. Schatten auf Berlin ist eine Initiative von dropping knowledge e.V. und der Fachhochschule Salzburg und sucht im Geiste der historischen Großstadt-Dokumente nach den Schattenseiten der Hauptstadt."

NAZIS INVENTED THE SEX DOLL

Blogcritics: "The 'field-hygienic project' was an initiative of Himmler, who regarded the doll as a "counterbalance" for the sexual drive of his stormtroopers. In one of his letters, he mentions the 'unnessessary losses' the Wehrmacht had suffered in France, inflicted by street prostitutes.

The world's first sexdoll - or 'gynoid' - was built in 1941 by a team of craftsmen from Germany's Hygiene Museum in Dresden. The project was supervised by a famous technician, Franz Tschakert. He was the "father of the woman of glass," which happened to be the sensation in the 1930's International Hygiene Exhibition."

STEPHEN KING AGAIN!

Quotes from the TIME-Interview with Stephen King: "Someone in the Bush family should actually be waterboarded so they could report on it to George. I said, I didn't think he would do it, but I suggested Jenna be waterboarded and then she could talk about whether or not she thought it was torture. (...) The most blogged-about things on the Internet are, it's Britney, it's Lindsay. So I think it would be terrific [to have them as TIME Persons of the Year]. There would be such a scream from the American reading public, sure. But at the same time, it's time for somebody to discuss the difference between real news and fake news."

I can't believe how much time I just wasted with this one, but it's got videos of nerds in costumes asking the questions. And nerds in costumes are always funny! Always!

One of the funniest short videos ever is Triumph the Insult Dog from Conan Obrien interviewing Star Wars nerds standing in line to see "Attack of the Dorks". I could watch it over and over:
