On Chatroulette]]> http://www.asourceofinspiration.com/2010/02/25/on-chatroulette/feed/ 1 Digital Documentaries http://www.asourceofinspiration.com/2010/02/08/digital-documentaries/ http://www.asourceofinspiration.com/2010/02/08/digital-documentaries/#comments Mon, 08 Feb 2010 18:56:46 +0000 Armando Alves http://www.asourceofinspiration.com/?p=3031 Being lazy on a rainy Sunday has its payoffs, like finding these two great documentaries:

PBS Frontlines’ Digital Nation: from information overflow to virtual worlds, Rachel Dretzin and Douglas Rushkoff do a great job on highlighting some of the challenges of the Millennial generation.


Also engaging was BBC’s 3D Documentary Explorer for “The Virtual Revolution: How 20 years of the web has reshaped our lives”.

Even with the 3D eating the CPU, the videos (with plenty testimonials of key web figures) are worthy of your next lazy Sunday. Beats watching American Idol anytime.

Ladies, let’s be honest: your intelligence isn’t the first thing we notice.

Or so they say at the Trivial Pursuit Experiment:

TrivialPursuitExperiment

Come on guys, don’t disappoint me and let’s show the ladies we’re damn smart. At least sometimes.

The tournament is sponsored by Sony to promote their Exmor CMOS Sensor technology, able to capture fast-moving action in low light filming conditions.
