Canadian guy with a serious addiction to technology and business news. I'm a big Howard Stern fan, I'm addicted to "House" on TV and I watch way too many movies.

At 53, “he is old enough to be the father of many of the Web 2.0-ers already selling their businesses for millions of dollars, and he revels in his reputation as a geek savant." Craig Newmark is founder of the popular classified site, Craigslist.

Casino Royale was the first Bond book in the series, and we've got a new star. The film is a big test for the bond franchise, as a lot of the fave characters like gadget-god "Q" and MoneyPenny aren't in this film. This is the new James Bond...

Netscape has been running a Digg-clone experiment for five months now to test two alternatve homepage designs in an attempt to increase the site's popularity and its little-used topical categories. It's solution: Stop listening to its audience. Huh?

I think this is a by-product of being a bad driver and following directions from an underpaid kid at a drive-in oil change place. How pissed would you be if this happened to you?

For those who like following the recent craze of Borat, here is a clip of Sacha Cohen (the guy who plays Borat) all cleaned up and on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. He talks about his character, Ali-G and interviewing CIA officials. Hilarious.

This kid has to be the coolest 8-year-old in the world. This video shows her talking about "That idiot Bill O'Reilly". She says "he was taking the common view today that violence comes from kids like me who play video games and listen to rap music."

"Anti-smoking ads on television produced by tobacco companies and aimed at parents may actually be encouraging children to start smoking, Australian researchers report."

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq." John Kerry can't escape saying this. But does it suggest something deeper?

"The success of the entrepreneurs behind Digg, YouTube, and Facebook will undoubtedly inspire a growing breed of the young, energetic, and self-reliant who are more than willing to gamble that their startups will fly."

This entire list is illustrated with Lego character photos (geek friendly). Funny, but it's actually quite a shallow list of things men should buy to make women want their money. I hope this isn't what women really want.

What? Did I read that right? Mel Gibson got so many headlines for his drunken, anti-Semitic spiel, that him winning an award seems out of place. As soon as you find out it's from the Latino Business Group, it makes it that much weirder.

Madonna finally talks about her controversial adoption of a Malawian boy. She wants to set the record straight, so she reveals courtroom conversation with her adopted son's biological father.

In case you missed it, Bill O'Reilly recently went on air and publicly said he wants to ban horror movies. I can't stand this guy. This is a really witty, well-written response to television's most arrogant anchor.

Amazing video of an American computer programmer who is testifying under oath being hired by Congressman Tom Feeney in 2000 to create a prototype software package that could secretly rig an election to sway the results.

Looks like Zune is on topic today, so here is a video of what it's like to use the Microsoft Zune. This "comprehensive tour" from Engadget shows every menu, sub-menu, function and feature.
