Ummmm, holy shit?
Someone get me some paper and glue – these cats need some captions STAT!
Tuesday Twosome
Thought I’d try one of those internet memes.
Here goes:
Two places you go to for relaxation:
- My couch, to feed my horrible addiction to some TV show. I probably do this more than is healthy – but I think admitting you have a problem is the first step, right?
- The gym – working out is definitely a great stress reliever, and I find that if I miss a day I get a lot more grumpy than usual. All work and no play makes Aaron a dull boy.

Pure Pwnage Episode 14
If you haven’t watched it yet, get on over to Pure Pwnage and watch episode 14. (This is of course assuming you’ve seen any Pure Pwnage episodes at all. If you don’t know what Pure Pwnage is, start here)
Pure Pwnage is an internet TV show that started as a simple mockumentary of Jeremy (otherwise known as The Masterer), who’s a pro-gamer. Along the way to episode 14 it’s really grown to be a really entertaining show.
Don’t be a noob, check it out.

There’s a funny spoof of what might happen if the internets were to suddenly fail over at TechCrunch. The Onion is there. [link]
Testing out some hot Lightbox v2 action
Lightbox is this neat little app that pops up an image and darkens the rest of the page. Go on, give it a try – click on one of the following images.
Neat, huh?
GTD: Trusted Trio Update Day+1
Ok – so, I haven’t fully implemented a GTD workflow. BUT, I have managed to move to Lifehacker’s trusted trio method of clearing your inbox. Let me tell you: it’s wonderful.
GTD: Getting Things Done
It’s about time I overhaul my work flow. I’m in need of a comprehensive system for ensuring everything I do gets processed.
I’m going to subscribe to the nearly-fanatical school of thought that is GTD. For those not in the know, GTD is David Allen’s process of Getting Things Done.
I’m going to start by trying Lifehacker’s: Empty your inbox with the Trusted Trio system.
We’ll see how this works out, I plan on chronicling my adventures into GTD here on Creativity Unleashed: The Blog.
TechCrunch and InviteShare: A match made in heaven
Recently a new web 2.0 service, InviteShare, launched which allows people to not only share invites to private betas, but it awards points for doing so. It’s a great idea that encourages invite sharing.
Unfortunately the bittersweet problem is that there were just too many users. The site would frequently be down and using the site on a regular basis was trying beyond belief. But as I said, bittersweet – this was a good thing, as the more people that are active, the more invites there are to go around.
Mike Arrington over at TechCrunch just announced they’ve purchased InviteShare. This is great news and just makes total sense. TechCrunch gives pretty solid reviews of the up-and-coming web 2.0 services and apps that are sprouting up left and right. Couple that with people being able to now easily acquire private beta invites and you’ve got a match made in heaven. Add in TechCrunch’s already overwhelming popularity and ability to handle large amounts of traffic and you’ll see why I’m pumped about this. Once they stabilize the service it’ll be much easier to use and navigate the site.
Students Trade Bibles for Porn
Looks like a couple guys in Texas are fed up with the constant god mongering. Similar to the toys-for-guns program, these guys are running a ‘porn-for-bibles’.
“We consider the bible to be a very negative force in the history of the world,” student Ryan Walker said. Walker is part of a student group that calls itself the Atheist Agenda.
Good for their initiative – probably could’ve been done a little more tastefully. But I give ‘em an A for effort.
