Skyrails is a research project by a PhD student. He’s made his source code available for non commercial uses. The video below is a great resume. Basically he’s got his pick of jobs based on this video alone. Long live the internet. Here’s a brief description of the project from the site:

Skyrails is a social network (or any graph really) visualization system. It has a built in programming language for processing (as far as visualisation attributes goes) the graph and its attributes. The system is not only aimed at expert users though, because through the scripting languages menus can be built and the system can be used by any users.

Kudos to theawesomer for this great find.

Marketing and Social Media guru Chris Brogan lists me as a Rockstar. Rather, I shamelessly promoted myself on his blog in his Rockstars section. You can submit your own name and blog into his list, but it’s at his sole discretion whether or not you appear on the list. I suspect my episodes of messing with the cat have something to do with this. Actually to be honest, I haven’t seen any traffic through this list, so I think you’d be better off leaving comments on his blogs and trying to foster a real relationship instead of being lazy and just link dropping if you wanted some traffic.

Last week, the video game Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe came out for the PS3 and Xbox360. Check out what these gaming sites are saying about the latest installment of the MK series by Midway.

Here’s a link to the IGN video review. They don’t let you embed the video on your site – LAME.

Check this video out. It’s freaking awesome, there’s no denying it. It’s been out for about a day and already it’s been viewed over 100,000 times as of the time of writing. This is how you do a viral video. Show something remarkable that people want to talk about and spread around. Not only that, but it’s pertinent to what you are promoting. Often times, companies don’t get it and spend hoards of cash creating a viral video that has NOTHING to do with what they are promoting. Without further ado, I give you Bruce Lee nunchuck ping pong…
