On Frederator: “The Three Little Pigs meet Brahms in this Oscar-nominated Merry Melody.”
The composer’s famous Gypsy Dances are featured in this cartoon, and the animation is beautifully synced to the music. Where Disney failed to impress dramatically with Fantasia, cartoons like this one hit a vein, comically, just a few years later. Here is the link.
Hitachi’s gone disco to explain the new hard drive technology, which allows for 10x the capacity. See the linked flash movie. Cute! 🙂 Here is the link.
From Cartoon Brew:
“Starting tomorrow, Frederator Studios establishes ReFrederator.com, a daily vintage cartoon video podcast, —and you don’t even need an iPod to enjoy it. ReFrederator will feature classic public domain cartoons with Mighty Mouse, Daffy Duck, Betty Boop, Little Lulu, Felix the Cat…”
Nice! Yes! 🙂 Here is the link.
Here is the link to a wonderful video from the 60s, advertising THE moped of the hour, called the Lambretta.
This fellow from SlappingTurtle.com developed a piece of software called iAlertU, which is a very clever use of the hard drive motion sensors built into late model PowerBooks and MacBooks. iAlertU will sound a screeching alarm if the laptop is picked up. Click the video to see it in action. The remote is used to arm/disarm it. This is cool stuff! 🙂
