Google has designs on your entire computer now with their upcoming Chrome OS. This video explains it in a straightforward way. Perhaps a little too straightforward…

It’s really exciting stuff, but I mean come on, there are TWO letter Ts in the word ‘inTerneT’ guys. Innernet just makes me think of Dennis Quaid floating around the inner ear in his teeny submarine.

Still, people are increasingly making this sort of video now to explain their products or services. Perhaps because online things tend to be technical and scary to some people and are more palatable in felt tip pen and a soft Californian accent. Apple’s iPhone ads are almost painfully patronising.

Here’s a video which should help the Daily Mail get it’s head around Twitter.

As technology becomes more intuitive and reaches out to every generation during their everyday lives, then it’s only right that explaining things like this gets more natural, with companies’ official marketing starting to imitate the traditional word of mouth explanation in the pub. After all, previously technical terminology like ‘blog’, ‘ping’ ‘tweet’ etc are becoming more everyday language every, er… day. We’re finally getting comfortable with the future.

I’m holding out for Branding in Plain English, or something about the offside rule. A new video meme? Just wait for the parodies…

If you missed last weeks’ exciting Apple media event where the new iPods and iTunes were launched, here’s everything you need to know.

Awesome.

Sorry, I had to post this, it’s Friday. Cassetteboy is a bloody genius. If you’ve seen it before, watch it again, then check out the others on his site.

As those who know me will attest, I have a fascination with time as well as typography. Could this be the best thing I’ve seen all year? Maybe…

Clock Clock, by Humans Since 1982. There’s even a font. Wow, just wow.

I wish I had that much time on my hands. Found over at Boredom is your Fault

I’m not sure if this is really real, but it’s nice nevertheless. A band (called Blame Ringo apparently) have shot a video down at Abbey Road for their new single. It shows a day in the life of the famous zebra crossing and is almost enough to make you feel sorry for motorists…

Alternative titles for this post included Abbey Slowed, The Long and Grinding Road, Stop My Car, All Things Must Pass, Dumb Together…

The new Formula one season kicks off on the 28th March, and this year there are a lot of changes. This pretty slick video outlines the main ones, courtesy of Sebastien Vettel, Red Bull and a hefty helping of lovely CGI graphics.

Impressive, but of course, every UK F1 fan is waiting for the return of the Fleetwood Mac theme tune now it’s back on the BBC…

Sorry Jamiroquai, but it’s still the best.
