This clip is pretty cool for all manner of reasons – amazing technology, cutting-edge video editing – combine when an MIT scientist captures the first 90 000 hours of his son’s life on tape to try to understand how language develops.

Friday Fun Link – What’s Your Price? A Dating Site With A Twi$t
I really wish I could remember where I first came across this site otherwise it’s going to look *really* suspicious. But anyhow, I did somehow manage to stumble across a new dating site called What’s Your Price which has a bit of a unique twist – men (who are called “The Generous” in the site’s […]
Friday Fun Link – NHL Player Rater
In honour of the Flames’ Jarome Iginla getting his 1000th career point tonight, here’s a really cool site that displays the names of two fairly equal NHL players and allows you to pick which one you think is best. (If you don’t recognize one or both players, it helpfully puts their career stats side-by-side and […]
Friday Fun Link – SaskNDP Candidate Playlists
I’m at the NDP convention this weekend and one fun thing they did is release a YouTube playlist of all the candidate’s favourite songs. Reflecting the diversity of the party, there’s classics and country and indie and metal and dance. If you can’t be at the after parties, it’s the next best thing! One other […]
Friday Fun Link – “At first I was just happy you weren’t another naked guy” – ChatRoulette Love Song

Friday Fun Link – Yorkton to Regina in Five Minutes
A guy I went to elementary school with posted this time lapse video of the drive from Yorkton, SK to Regina, SK. Normally about a two hour drive, this video condenses the trip to five minutes (and every time he passes a car will make you feel like you’re on a highway in Mexico for […]
Friday Fun Link – Making Stairs Fun
It’s no secret that I’m interested in the role of “fun” – fun at work, fun at home, fun in life – not just because fun is, well, FUN! but because I strongly believe it has a real impact on how people work, live and interact. One timely example comes from the National Family Literacy […]
