Banksy has once again, done it again.
The UK street artist that uses stencils to elegantly subvert just about everything, is subverting his own counterfitters.
Annoyed with the barrage of fakes being sold as his originals on eBay and elsewhere, he’s posted high-resolution originals that can be freely downloaded on his site.. He even gives directions [...]

Hot on the heals of learning of David Galbraith’s new Smashing Telly, I found out about Peekvid.
Peekvid deep links to of produced TV programs and full-length movies. I’ve been wanting to see The Boondocks for a while now.

An old pal David Galbraith just launched a site tto find the best freely available tv programing on the internet.

It’s a classic already.
It rules.
Listen to Jonathan Coulton’s Code Monkey now.
The more I check out Jonathan’s site I realize it’s the kind of modern cottage industry muscian site I’ve always envisioned. You can hear all [...]

There’s a new service called Famundo that offers a blend of shared calenders, blog, wiki, and file storage tools tailored for assisting with family management tasks.
From their homepage:
Famundo is revolutionizing the way families manage their busy lives!
He. They said ‘revolutionizing’.
(Their service actually looks complete, well thought out and sincerely made, but [...]
