bbc covers the rickroll phenomenon
Posted by Zadi Diaz


If you scrub to about :53 you'll see that we're now forever stamped in Rick Rolling history. Later in the video you'll see Tim Shey from NNN who was Live Rick Rolled by Rocketboom. LOL.

Is it finally the death of the Rick Roll -- or does this now mean I'll start getting Rick Rolled by my mom? Ooh boy...

trek and other classics now streaming at CBS
Posted by Rick Rey

Forget Hulu and their private beta shenanigans. CBS is now streaming all 3 seasons of the original Star Trek series (and a few other classics, including Twilight Zone) on their TV Classics destination. No sign-ups. No international restrictions. Just pure unadulterated Trek madness.

Zadi will get a kick out of this, because I know she's a big fan of TOS. I'm more of a TNG guy. Sadly, no full-screen or embedding options, but the 15-second ads are very bearable.

EDIT: Seems like some of our international commenters aren't able to view the videos after all. Sorry, guys!

radiohead live TONIGHT!
Posted by Rick Rey
radiohead in rainbows (fake cover art)
Kick off the new year with a commercial-free set from Radiohead on Current at 9pm PST (midnight EST). It will air simultaneously on TV and the web. Mmm yes, me likey!
"The pre-recorded performance will include all of the tracks from "In Rainbows" plus some "other bits" as Thom says."

I'm sure this thing will be archived all over the web -- so no worries if you're going out to celebrate. Have fun!
