The Paleotechnologist

I’ve just discovered Crayon Physics. Remember playing with crayons as a kid and imagining your drawings coming to life?

Well, imagine no longer. This is an excellent example of why computers are so cool. I’ve known about this for maybe a day or so, and already I’m thinking of it in terms of some of the Great Games I’ve known: Zork, Flight Simulator, Oblivion, etc.

Don’t bother with the instructions; just let your inner kindergartener out to play with it and you’ll figure it out in no time.

Take a look — it’s really amazing.

EDIT: (No, this is not an April Fool’s joke.)

…memes perpetuate you!

OK — how I wound up having the “first” comment on the first video on YouTube, I’ll probably never know. Especially since I know for a fact that I wasn’t the first to comment (click the button to show the replies marked as spam if you don’t believe me). But judging from the number of “d00d u haz teh f1rst YouT00b commend eVar!” replies I get, I’m in danger of becoming a meme.

Apparently the word was coined by Richard Dawkins, though — so it’s not all bad.

im in ur youtubes confusing ur memes
