Microsoft iPod

Hilarious movie outlining how Microsoft would have marketed the iPod. Turn on your speakers, you don’t want to miss the music.

Well, maybe more like two planets and one moon now available on Google. But where’s the news value in that? Everybody already know that you can find anything and everything on Google. So…

Joining Google Maps, Google Earth and Google Moon (for proof that Google employees have humour: zoom in), the newest member of the Google family is Google Mars. Check out the place where Pathfinder landed or be the first to prove intelligent life on mars.

On another subject, my contribution to the cause: HTTP.

The guy telling the story burns Bill Gates. Funny video, at least if you consider yourself to be a computer geek.

But, as the saying goes, better late than never.

I wish to pay my tribute to the great team DON’T PANIC by linking to the official announcement: So long, and thanks for all the bits and (not that I know why anyone would want to see it) to all the bits.

It was great fun!
