"I like to make pancakes, they are so very tasty."

Remember the MacDonald's advertisement that went "Wake up, to a happy sound, Yumma yumma yum, Yumma yum yum yum..." Ha ha, it never failed to wake me up to a fresh start in the morning. There's something about tacky advertisement jingles that clings on to you and make you hum them all day. Here's one I found on Youtube. Not really Mac's hotcakes, but a no less groovy and singable jingle that will keep you humming all day. Check it out!




On the topic of wacky stuff that you just can't get enough of, ever heard of Edward Monkton? Well, his series of cards and greetings are just completely hilarious. The line drawings are simple, yet honest and starckly in your face. The humour doesn't make sense, yet it does. I love it. Here's a sampling.

On to some other innovative stuff that might actually make a difference in your work productivity. Check out this software called Photobot. Photobot's website sings this beautiful tune,

Photobot is the world's first Zero-Click picture correction software.
He's always on, searching your computer for photos from your digital camera. As soon as he finds them, he goes to work making your bad pictures good and your good pictures great!

Photobot's Zero-Click technology means you'll never need to read a manual, never need to learn software, and never need to hit a button ever again.

Yup! What this software does is it runs in your windows background and automatically corrects your photos for you! Now, you can save time on all those post-production late into the night and early mornings and learn to make some pancakes! I'm not too sure how effective this really is and wonder what it does to your mood shots and whether it is system resource heavy. I'll try it out and let you know in a while. If you are interested, try out the beta here while it is still free!
