Paris Hilton responds to McCain
In response to John McCain’s ‘celebrity’ ad dissing Obama, Paris Hilton, one of the alleged bimbos depicted in the ad has responded [video link]. Her solution for energy independence actually sounds much better than the two guys. You say she was coached? And you mean the other two aren’t? I don’t believe I said something [...]
The Kid with Amazing Linguistic Skills
This kid selling peacock feather fans [YouTube link] near the Hanging Gardens, Mumbai can speak a ton of languages albeit related to his trade. The guy who shot the video returns two and half years later [YouTube link] and discovers the guy still selling those peacock feathers albeit with the help of few more languages. [...]
Comcast’s 10 million Pixel Video Wall
This 10 million pixel video wall at the new Comcast Center in Philadelphia is mindblowing. I’m sure the experience in real life must be overwhelming. Don’t miss the embedded videos especially the second one.
Sameer Mishra’s Numb-what?
A light moment at the otherwise tense Spelling Bee [YouTube link]. Sameer Mishra, the eventual winner is no numb-nut.
Hillary Impersonation
Not to pick on the poor girl or anything but if you’ve seen Hillary speak on the campaign trail, then this impersonation is spot on. Reminds me of Colbert’s parody of her point point clap clap mannerism. Too bad ThatHillaryShow will not have more material to work on when she drops out.
Disintegrating Wind Turbine
I don’t know why we love to see stuff blown up or crumble dramatically but we do. Check out this awesome video of a wind turbine whose brakes failed.
The Real Petraeus Questioning
I always thought SNL loved Hillary but obviously in this introductory sketch on the Petraeus questioning this past week, McCain and Clinton get the brunt of the attack. As for Obama, well, you can’t make fun of a guy who opposed the war right from the start unlike those people who claim to. Obviously cursory [...]
The Obama Speech
Anyone with a passing interest in the ongoing U.S. Democratic primaries might have heard raves about a certain Obama speech today. Go ahead and hear it in its entirety first. I must agree with pundits who are hailing it as one of the greatest speech on race since Martin Luther King’s I’ve a dream speech. [...]
Reviewing Canon Powershot S5 IS
My brother, Aditya who is one of the persons behind IndiCast has recently started a technology video blog where he reviews electronic gadgets that he purchases. He freely admits not being comfortable with the written word but I think he is doing a great job with IndiCast which primarily focuses on audio and video content. [...]
Lalu speaks English
Of course, you cannot miss a video of Lalu Prasad Yadav speaking English, can you? And hell didn’t freeze over either. As the Speaker of the House, Somnath Chatterjee says, iske baad rail ka koi samasya nahi rahega (There’ll be no more problems in the Railways ministry).
A Lion Hug
Forget Cute Overload. Check out this video of a lion hugging a woman who rescued him. I agree with km, a lion would make a great pet just for the hugs never mind the statement you’ll make when you take him out for a walk.
Hatichya Marie
I love this Marie ad in Marathi [hat tip: Sampada]. It has a distinct Marathi flavor, complete with one of our favorite exclamations - hatichya maari (a kinda damn it!) What’s more, Shah Rukh Khan is now spreading his endorsement tentacles in the regional markets as well. Poor Ashok Saraf! Who’ll pay attention to his [...]
Vote for Desi Obama
If we ever needed a reason for all desis to vote for Obama, here is one [YouTube link].
The Technology Bubble
To make up for today’s video which I was told is almost a year old, feast your eyes on this spanking new video by The Richter Scales on the current technology bubble. Catchy music and apt lyrics. If you don’t believe we are in a bubble, then this video is for you:
Twelve Days of Christmas
Hilarious! As Amit says, watch if before some idiotic desi gets offended and calls for its ban.
What’s Up, India?
My brother, Aditya who is a little more into the multimedia aspect of blogging than I am has dragged his fiancee, Prachiti into the Web 2.0 world as well. Considering the time he spends on IndiCast with Abhishek, I guess the only way Prachiti could do that was by joining them. She has gone the [...]
The 12 Most Influential Videos
The Webby Awards has listed the 12 most influential videos of all-time. For sake of your Net cred, I hope you’ve seen most of them. Macaca is one of them.
Talking Truth to the Book
Most (all?) of the guests on late-night talk shows are selling their books, movies, music, or even fashion lines. Call it the perfect product placement. And often talk show hosts will help their guests sell their crap. But it makes for great television when the hosts veer off the scripted lines and wade into their [...]
Paid Google Video Shutting down
Google finally gathered up enough courage to pull the plug on its video service. Basically, if you have a video purchased from Google Video then Google’s DRM will disable it permanently the next time you log on to the internet (which you have since you are reading this post so it might already be [...]
