Spoof Apple Ads. Go Linux.

Google MacTake (Mistake)

Google has done his/her duties, and kindly indexed the oldest, most poorly worded post of the MacTake (as per tradition with all my blogs).

Upon searching for 'mactake' Google suggests:
Mistake
Google then follows up with the second oldest post on the MacTake.


This brings up an interesting question: Is Google male or female?
Assuming that it is sentient; is Google just one enormous unpaid gremlin forced to forever index mankind's needs for 'lonelygirl15', general 'celebrity pr0n' and 'free download h4x3d serialz'?

Or is it a social group of telepathic and genetically modified hamsters?

Either way I'm grateful for its very existence, but you tell me!

TheWorldToday

Alasdair Corbett (versuscom.com) and I have bravely teamed up to author a daily blog and weekly gag comic over at www.twtoday.co.uk . (TheWorldToday)

I'm really excited to have this chance to work on a blog and comic with Alasdair, and so far have been really enjoying the experience.

Meanwhile, did you know that the funny button in the top right hand corner of a finder window (for example) has an official Apple name?


Thats right, they call it: 'the little white pill'.


I dibs the name for my upcoming mac comic brainchild. Don't touch!

Google & Apple Love

Okay whilst I mend my splitting sides, let me tell you about this little spot of Google & Apple love.
I was thinking of making a slick black iPod ad ( just for fun ), to 'Back in Black' by ACDC and showing it to a few friends, so with the silhouette style apple ads in mind I googled for:
'making movie like iPod ad'.

Google suggests:
Did you mean: making love like iPod ad

Ohoh folks! That about says enough!

Happy Mac'ing.

Beatles iPod Rumoured

That's right, there is a rumor originating from a very, reliable source, that Apple (Inc) has finalized plans with Apple Corps (Beatles) to produce a very nifty Beatles themed iPod. ( akin to the black and red U2 iPod).



Our most reliable source also indicated that the special iPod may be sold preloaded with the entire Beatles collection on it, similar to how the Bare Naked Ladies have their songs on a thumb drive.


Listeners to the MacBreak Weekly NetCast from http://www.twit.tv/ will note, that in fact our 'reliable source' is actually just the derrière of an unnamed individual from MBW. Yes folks, to put it in The Simpson's terminology: "That's just gas escaping".

The repercussions are enDlesS!
