Friday Drive In: Dave Eggers on Ted Talks
I just applied to volunteer for the New York branch of the amazing institution 826. So I thought this would be a good time to spread the word a little. The video tells the story of the organization better than I could so I'll let it do the talking.
In case you live under a literary rock, Dave Eggars, besides being the founder of 826 is also the man behind McSweeney's, "The Best American Non-Required Reading" series, and a few novels including his first and most well-known: A Heart Breaking Work of Staggering Genius.

The Curious Case of Forrest Gump
For all the Oscar buzz that The Curious Case of Benjamin Button has been getting, I've been hearing some pretty bad reviews from people I know who've seen it. One big complaint? It's just Forrest Gump without any funny parts. Here's a little video that explores that very issue:

Hey Web Diversions Fans
We're packing up shop here in New York and relocating to Chicago. Posts may be scarce (or non-existent) for a little while until we get ourselves settled in. But don't worry: we promise we'll come back. And we'll miss you the whole damn time.
This isn't much in the way of a video post, but it is a good farewell to home post. See you in Chicago...

Live Puppy Cam!
Face it: puppies are cute. So why not sit back and watch the live streaming feed of a whole pack of them rolling around and sleeping and being fluffy. I know Becky K. over at Meals for Moderns and On Style for Moderns has been glued to it for days.

People in the Middle for Obama
This week, instead of one video, you get 25!
Head over to People in the Middle for Obama to see video testimonials of republicans, libertarians, independents, and right-leaning Democrats who are voting for Obama this election. The site and the videos have a great, clean design that, along with the music, brings to mind a Mac ad.
Here's something to wet your whistle with.

Burn After Reading
I don't know why the New York Times gave the new Coen brothers' movie, Burn After Reading, such a lackluster review. I saw it last Friday and it was so hilarious and awesome. It could have used a little bit of an epilogue at the end. But the whole cast was fantastic (John Malkovich is brilliant, Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand are hilarious and George Clooney continues to pull off the loveable asshole). Check out the preview and then go see the film. You won't regret it.

Friday Drive In: Bomb the Bass - Butterfingers
This definitely makes me wish the song was as good as the video, but damn this is cute. An animated mixing board? Yes please!
