Don't forget, Father's Day is this sunday! I thought it was last week, so I was really prepared, although I still just managed to put a card in the mail today.
Not quite as good as the "Paris" video I saw on Fark earlier.

Go to FARK.com, click on Videos, then find the ones for Wednesday / Thursday. One of them say "If you watch only one spoof Paris video today, make it this one."

Oh I think Obama has Paris beat...though I like the end of the Paris skit. It must be the background vocals shouting Obama...and the Barak me tonight is just great hahaha
It is a blimp, no doubt, but I believe our present time has crossed paths with a past event in the space time continuum, and what we are seeing is quite possibly a German Zeppelin from the early 1900's which had entered the Bermuda triangle and transcended a dimensional vortex which instantly thrust it into the future--June 13, 2007. By examining this footage more closely, we may be able to solve the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle, or even harness the power of the vortex to generate our own flux capacitor. If only we had a DeLorean...

Not hard to tell who's in the creative arts business.
That is quite incredible. Reminds me of the new movie Deja Vu with Denzel Washington, very similar technology, though a bit more Hollywood than this real world application.

Oh and Microsoft needs to learn how to really hype this stuff up. This technology was cool a couple months ago, but now Google has integrated a technology called "Street View" into Google Maps. If Microsoft did this with their Live Maps, they might actually beat Google to the punch. Live Maps has way better quality of satellite images than Google by far, but Microsoft had this street view like technology before Google and could have really made their technology stand out, but nope. You should check out the Street View in Google Maps, it's a bit limited at the moment in terms of availability, but it's very cool!

Street View is causing an uproar in the privacy industry, and a lawsuit has been files already due to it. :)
Geoff said about 3 hours later
People will do anything to file a lawsuit...it is just ridiculous.
Marc said about 4 hours later
Well, Google deserves some of the lawsuits. They snapped a shot of a girl in her truck with her underwear obviously visible. Granted it's her own fault for it being visible, but I'm sure they never asked if she'd like to be on Google Maps. I'm not even sure she's even suing, but the picture was removed and it was all over http://www.digg.com .

nah, I think it's the gal whose house/apartment was pictured....has her cat in the window, or something like that.
GJ said about 6 hours later
Yup, it's cat lady from San Fran. She's horrified her cat's privacy is at stake. No lawsuit yet...I'm betting most lawyers are laughing her our of their offices. Still, I can see the potential for a real lawsuit, soon enough.
