Track Hurricanes!

ffwd – ffwd is based on our common behavior of flipping through TV channels with a remote control. The result is a personal remote control for web videos that is as simple as channel surfing but more powerful as the internet is almost endless and TV isn’t – well everybody knows that web video will eventually kill the TV star one day. ffwd has concluded videos from various sites, such as: Hulu, Comedy Central, YouTube, MySpaceTV and much more. Using these sites as a huge DB lets you pick TV shows, web video channels, and topics you’re interested in and then ffwd will provide you with constant related videos. This is HUGE. It is endless hours of streaming videos. Unfortunately subscription is mandatory, however, it is worth it. After subscribing make sure you check the browse channels section – you will enjoy the vast amount of channels under your nose. If fixed channels bores you, you can always create your own channel based on your personal preferences or simply follow someone who has already created a cool channel.

Blah Girls – Backed by Ashton Kutcher, Blah Girls is a gossip site that features a group of animated (SouthPark resemblance) teenage girls who provide opinions on what’s going on in the world of entertainment. The animated characters blah blah about current celeb news and is updated with new episodes every Monday and Thursday. Blah Girls isn’t suitable for kids as the characters smoke pot and bitch around.

Stormpulse – If you’re into storm watching and tracking hurricanes, this is one of the best interactive sites on the web, you can find most of the same information from the National Weather Service. However, Stormpulse presents it in a way that is easier to interpret and more interesting to use. You can map a storm track, access satellite information, read about the storm’s life cycle, grab info from Wikipedia, view hurricane photos posted on flickr and much more. For a detailed guide check review of features.

Wine Library TV – Wine Library TV is considered one of the best online wine educators. It is hosted passionately by Gary Vaynerchuk which key goals are twofold: “First, I want people to try different wines. How can you have a fave if you only know a few? Second, I tell people to trust their palates. If a wine appeals to your palate, then it’s a good choice. Don’t feel pressured to like popular brands or what experts recommend. Buy what ‘brings the thunder’ for you.” He even reviews Champagne, don’t you simply love Champagne. Additional wine related sites that have been featured previously on our Weekly Faves include: NoseWine and Snooth. Drink responsibly (not wine but still related).

Tweegee – Tweegee is a Web Portal for Tweens (kids aged 7-15) which offers them a complete world of internet resources to create, share and have fun with. It’s a one-stop site which provides Tweens with a safe and integrated ability to take full ownership of their online activities, to create their own complete personal web sites, communicate via web based email and organizer, engage in rich multiplayer games, read news most relevant to them, author their own articles and much more. Read The Birth of Google as it is presented to kids.

Green Daily – We know that this big ball we live on is facing environmental challenges like never before. So how do we connect the dots between our consumer lifestyle and environmental responsibility? I am glad you asked. You can start with Green Daily – A nice, typical blog (with a hip, slightly humorous attitude) about keeping the planet as crap-free as possible so we can use it longer. Want more? Check our previous Green posts.

How Stuff Works Videos – From car engines to search engines, from cell phones to stem cells and thousands of subjects in between. HowStuffWorks has it covered. No topic is too big or too small for them. In addition to comprehensive articles, helpful graphics and informative videos walk you through every topic clearly, simply and objectively. AllMyFaves have decided to direct you straight to the video section because we are visual people and we think that visualizing things is the best. BTW the most viewed video on the site is A Computer Tour, isn’t it astonishing, who uses computers these days ;-).

Retro Thing – Retro Thing is a vintage response to sites like Gizmodo and Endgadget, which provide a daily onslaught of dozens of almost identical mobile phones, computers and shiny gadgets. Vintage devices are often available for a tiny fraction of what they sold for new and they still offer hours of fun. So are you thinking of reuniting with your Commodore 64.

Dirty Car Art – When the dust gets thick on cars, Scott Wade uses it as a canvas to create temporary works of art. The site features a nice gallery of images that were painted directly using dirt. No simple “wash me!” here, these are portraits, landscapes, and whimsical scenes. Probably the most ephemeral and dusty art you’ll ever see. Don’t you simply love creative people?

World WarsThe target of world wars is to take over all of the territories. Similar to risk or dice wars. Why real wars couldn’t be as simple or maybe it is the same, maybe someone is just rolling the dice and by so deciding if to attack or not.

  • On Sept. 18th my wife and myself (Wayne and Donna) attended the tonight show. We are from Van Buren Arkansas. Upon arriving to stand in line we met a very interesting person, Glowzell (third in line). We learned that she had attended the tonight show some Five Hundred and 20 some times. She helped us understand the workings of the tonight show, how awesome Jay Leno was and how individuals were selected to set on the front row ect. We truly enjoyed the conversation helping make the time (aprox. 3hrs +) go by swiftly. She told us she had met a young man the day before that had been traveling around the US and living as a homeless person. He had attended the tonight show the day before and she was expecting him back that day. He did show up and we got to meet him. His name was Ryan. He had a very interesting account of his travels. He had been staying around the corner at Bob Hope Blvd. park.
    My wife and I want to thank these two truly unique individuals for their friendliness and hospitality.
    Ironically as we were being seated in the tonight show randomly, there were two young men randomly seated beside my wife. She turned and ask the young man next to her where he was from and he said Arkansas. Turned out he was from Fort Smith AR just across the Arkansas river from Van Buren. He had graduated South Side High school last year and was in LA attending college. What are the odds of millions of people in LA that on that particular day, attending the tonight show someone being randomly seated beside someone else from the same state just aprox. a mile away. I have a picture of Glozell and "Her Bum" but don't know how to attach it. Will try but if it doesn't work e-mail me at wkh620@gmail.com and I will send you a picture.
    I have read Gozells blog and if the latest entry is correct "that she can't attend the Tonight Show again" because of her comments, I think that is a travesty. It goes against everything that Jay Leno says in his talk to the audience before the show, that nothing is fake and "what you see is what you get". Therefore if a performer (who is INVITED to the show knowing in PLENTY of time)AND is not up to par, BUMBLES through the show. As a result Glowzell comments on it, STATING FACTS that everyone could see, it should be the performer who receives the criticism AND TOLD NOT TO COME BACK not Glowzell.
    So - Glowzell you go girl, I'm in your corner and I'm sure there are hundreds more out there backing you.
    LETS HEAR IT FOR GLOWZELL......
    Send us the address of NBC and we will express our opinions.
    Always a fan,
    Wayne and Donna

  • Reading this reminds me of my old space mate. That guy was a single in the smartest human beings I know, but he was a bit odd for my tastes even though. Anyways I appreciated reading this, thanks. Will give me a thing to go into when I see him.
