Booyah!

It appears that the wonderful people working on Battlestar Galactica aren’t content to merely keep putting out the best damn show on TV. They’re going to put the same awesome stuff on the web in a series of webisodes, filling the timeline after the end of Season 2.5 but before the première of Season 3 (Friday 10/6!).

The series, titled ‘The Resistance’ will be released in ten short episodes every Tuesday and Thursday night until the première of Season 3 with the first one up right now for your enjoyment.

I’m planning on saving them all to watch in one go before the première, so don’t spoil any secrets for me. Also, obviously, don’t watch this if you haven’t finished Season 2.5 yet (or started watching the series at all); you know who you are (and you should be ashamed of yourselves).

Check out this new ebook ‘Files are Not for Sharing‘. It’s written to teach young children about the dangers of file sharing, but it’s an important read for all ages.

Broke Mac Mountain is a great little parody of Brokeback Mountain, but with Macs instead of sheep. It made me remember how great the music of the film was too.

Super Mario sound effects synthesizer. Awesome. (Via Kottke.org.)

I love Spike Jonze. His movies are great, but his short films are possibly even better. He’s a master of breaking expectations in a short timeframe. Anyway he has a new Gap Commercial that does just that. (Via Kottke.org.)
