Rep(360)orter



Life is a gigantic memory album now thanks to youtube and other uploading sites. So much awesomeness is captured and shared. I wonder how much cool shit happened before video cameras were invented that would totally tear ass on youtube had someone been there to record it. Like imagine Edison's face when he changed the first light bulb. And I'm sure some awesome Dinosaur bloopers went down back in the day that weren't ever able to ride the wave of Dino-folklore and subsequently faded quietly into the intangible realm of things that went down that no one will ever know about etc.

Super memory

This is a quick article sent to me by the birdman (my dad).
4 people in the world (possibly more) have what is known as Super Memory. It pretty much is what it sounds like. They remember everything they learn and it usual begins at a certain age.

Some of them seem to find their condition burdensome while others cherish their unique brain power.

Q-tip on Fallon

Just as tip's new album Kamaal - the abstract drops we get to see a live performance on Fallon with the Roots band. Not too shabby.

Good song. Better with head phones on.

More from TED website

Quite interesting lecture on incentive and human nature. Very big implications when economics and management is considered.

A video from the website TED.com



Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.

About Dan Pink

Bidding adieu to his last "real job" as Al Gore's speechwriter, Dan Pink went freelance to spark a right-brain revolution in the career marketplace.

Beatbox Dub FX 10/10/2008 'Love Someone'

Well done. I'm still not sure how the timing is done so perfectly with the looping but every time I see something like this the people somehow seem to make magic out of it. This one is particularly good. The sound is quite sharp given the fact it's a live outdoor performance.

Pervy old English TV Show

I highly doubt they would be allowed to get away with this on public television now but when we were kids this shit flew right over our heads.

Nasty Dunk

Explanation here is 100% visual.
I wonder how tall this guy is and how tall the guy standing is.


EDIT EDIT EDIT: I just rewatched this after my friend explained to me that he went through the legs too. I didn't believe it at first but on the slomo replay it looks like he may have. If so, does this warrant Greatest Dunk of All-time status???
