Dear God, is a brand new site bought to by the same people who made cool hunter. It’s in a similar vein to post secret.
In their own words it is “a startlingly new concept of spirituality where people from all over the planet reveal their innermost hopes and fears in the form of prayers to god.”
An interesting read.
And very nice site design too.

Here’s a bbc news video of the place in action.

A totally sick performance of Bangers & Mash by Radiohead in Nigel Godrich’s basement.
Thom Yorke plays drums too. Awesome.

A couple of days ago i was lying in bed reminiscing the good ol’ days when people made mixtapes. I won’t go on about it too long as everyone writes about this kinda thing now-a-days, but it was great when people used to make time to actually make tapes rather than just carrying everything around [which definitely does have it benefits].
I was browsing the internet and i found this:— muxtape. It’s way cool. In essence it’s just a digital mixtape, but it’s ace check it out.I love the site interface it’s simple and looks great.I made my own mixtape check it out

I went to see Be Kind Rewind this evening. I wasn’t expecting much I’d heard bad things. I was unable to resist ‘cos i love Michel Gondry so much and the trailer was good. The story line wasn’t quite there and I could niggle about other things…. BUTIf you seen other Gondry stuff then you’ll know how he loves low fi special effects. If i was to postulate why this film was made i say it was something like this:He watches films with special effects and wonders to himself “how would i do this?” And then he put together a film showcasing all the fun, childish (but genius) ways that he would.It made me laugh lots… mainly at how genius and cool the effects were…example: someone is shot in the head. they lie an un-cheesed pizza behind there head to symbolise blood pool.ANYWAY:The best thing about it was…. The website. They put so much effort in. and its amazing. Check it out…. be thorough, there is a lot to see you have to look hard.its awesome.if you’re lazy (slash dont have as much time as me)here’s one fine Gem of a page
