When Humans Punch Aliens
io9 presents When Humans Punch Aliens: The Video Remix:
Sure, we come in peace and all that. But sometimes, when we encounter alien life forms, the only way we can communicate is by using our built-in universal translators: the ones with five knuckles and a thumb. Here’s our compilation of the greatest scenes from movies and TV where a human socks an alien. (To the tune of Mama Said Knock You Out by LL Cool J.)
How Many Sequels Were There?
How did you do in the quiz game How many sequels were there to the film?
Supercuts
I believe that Waxy.org coined the term Supercuts, a “genre of video meme, where some obsessive-compulsive superfan collects every phrase/action/cliche from an episode (or entire series) of their favorite show/film/game into a single massive video montage.” The post has collected many video links for your obsessive viewing pleasure… 😉
OVGuide
Download Squad reports that OVGuide:
indexes online video sites ranging from Hulu and YouTube to TV-Links, Sidereel and SurfTheChannel. The layout is a bit busy, to say the least. But if a video’s online, odds are you’ll find it. You can browse a category list, navigate a tag cloud, or use the search bar which looks for videos on dozens of sites. If you know a site that isn’t indexed, you can suggest a link for inclusion.
Firefox 3 Released

Firefox 3 has officially been released; download it now and help break a world record! (Connections may be spotty, as I figured they would be; here’s an alternate link with mirrors just in case…)
Why download this version? dria.org has a nice Field Guide to Firefox 3 that explains most of the new features. Webmonkey has a post entitled Why you should download Firefox 3 right now making the case for the browser if you haven’t already been convinced. I myself have been a devout user since version 0.3 or so, and I am very much looking forward to using this latest release.

I wish I knew who was responsible for this awesome Futurama cast image, as I want to give them the credit they deserve.

This photo is but one of many stunning images in the Boston.com feature The Sky, From Above.
Star Trek: The Next Generation Rap
The lyrics in the YouTube video Star Trek [TNG] Rap (feat. Prime Directive and Galaxy Class) are a bit NSFW, but it’s worth a watch… 🙂
“Terrorist Fist Jab?!”
Fox “News” sinks to a new low, throwing out the term “Terrorist Fist Jab” to describe Obama’s fist bump with his wife during a recent speech. No, really, I’m not kidding.
