First off, it's tough to do this when you keep finding new apps that you decide you must own. I mean, sure, they're free (at least the ones I get), so no biggie, but still.
Anyway, on to the first round of...
This week, I'll be eliminating 10 applications, so grab your scorecards and get ready to start choppin' after the break!
Can people stop typing in LOLCat when they are not, in fact, creating a picture for ICanHazCheezeburger?
This rule does not apply when wearing this shirt. Thank you for your consideration.
...now that this site comes up as the #1 result if you search for 'ed thomas' on Google.
I can die slightly more content than usual.
Although I don't have a new iPhone (with the 2.0 software working on my iPhone: Original Recipe, I don't see the point), I did go stand on line for almost 8 hours with my friend Zubair to get him one. I took the time to try out a few applications I had downloaded for my iPhone the day before, one of which being Kyte Producer, which allows you to broadcast photos from your iPhone for some sort of Flash-based slideshow o' swank from their website.
Anyway, here's the whopping 4 pictures I took in my 8 hours on line. Enjoy!
...hit a few dozen hiccups on the way.
Relaunch after I work those out. Stupid universe...
...is on! Check it out at TheChallengeAwesome.com!
So, the past few weeks I've been kinda neglectful of this blog, but it's been with good reason. See, I've been working on the logistics of something that I've been trying to do since I was a freshman in college (the first time 'round, no less).
Back in 1985, there was a series published by DC Comics titled The DC Challenge, where a dozen-or-so writers would each take an issue of a comic, not knowing where the hell the story was going, and coming up with a cohesive story. Each issue had to end on a cliff hanger, and each issue had to pick up with whoever was in that neigh-inescapable death-trap getting out of it. While the writers said it was a fun exercise, they said it was a crazy time, and would likely never do it again.
Well, if they're not gonna do it, I sure as heck would like to give it a try.
But, you know me (or maybe you don't... if not, hi!)... If I'm gonna do something someone else has done, I need to escalate it somehow. Fortunately, with this wonderful Web 2.0 world we live in, I have a variety of ways to do that, like a blog-based novel, a Twitter short-story, all on top of the comic.
However, I needed some idiots brave people to do it with me... what good is a challenge like this if there's no one to challenge, you know? Thankfully, Brandon "J Is For Jerkface" Mendelson and Jon "I Don't Know His Middle Initial" Furniss have agreed to join me into this adventure into insanity. Also, I needed an artist, and Furniss' girlfriend, Joyceline, and my father, Dad, have agreed.
Anyway, I'll be posting the rules/update schedule to TheChallengeAwesome.com tomorrow, and the whole thing will be starting July 1st.
Thought you'd wanna know.
Not just breakfast, but also a work of art.
Just when you thought Comic-Con was the only place to go Klingon Hunting...
