Facebook announced a phone! No, Facebook just announced Facebook Home. Facebook announced a home? No, it’s just a home screen. Hmm… what would a real Facebook home actually look like? The guys at Joy of Tech wondered just that and created a comic that shows what Facebook distilled into a home would look like. Foundation built by Winklevii, open doors because no privacy, tunnels for “friends” to come in, Instagram cameras set up at the dinner table and so much more. More »
See, the thing is, your cat doesn’t actually hate you, per se. It simply prefers the more refined tastes of its imaginary lounging companion. Spread Motion Design filmed and animated this amusing short while Wolfpeople provided the score. More »
By now, it’s pretty much a fact that everyone uses Facebook (pipe down if you don’t). It’s also pretty much a fact that everyone watches Game of Thrones too (shut up if you don’t). But what if the characters in Game of Thrones started using Facebook? It would be so hilarious More »
Whaddya mean you don’t swallow your own hair? The 19-year-old woman that inspired this twisted animation from David O’Reilly certainly did. Then again she also had a four-pound hairball surgically removed from her intestinal tract. More »
In the latest round of April fools, a number of high-profile companies have worked hard to make us smile at the office. We’ve selected our favorite gags of the day (with a tech twist obviously!) and while Google gets a commendation for being very prolific, others have done great April Fools gags too, here are our favorites, in no particular order:
The title says it all, really, but Virgin has come up with an interesting (or terrifying) concept with this glass-bottom plane. Can you imagine what it would be see through that bottom while you are at 10,000ft in the air? Actually, the landing would probably be the most interesting part of the trip — let us know which one you prefer in the comments. Can read the fake announcement from Richard Brandson. (more…)

Ben Crouse has done what some have said could never be done—he’s captured the spirit of the World Wide Web, animated it into a six minute short, and put it back on the Internet. Hella meta. [Cartoon Brew] More »
The life of a hotshot Hollywood publicist isn’t one you’d envy under the best of circumstances. But the guy who has to cover Chris Brown’s back? That’s some kind of martyr. More »
The entire world—my geek friends, my non geek friends, my non TV watching non geek friends—is waiting for March 31st because that’s when Game of Thrones is finally coming back to HBO. Westeros! Dany! Jon Snow! Tyrion! Robb Stark! Robb Stark’s girl who is the great granddaughter of Charlie Chaplin! Everyone is excited except… the people who read the books. They know what’s coming. The Axis of Awesome made a hilarious music video called ‘Rage of Thrones’ about those people and how they feel about us bandwagoners. Still, though. Game of Thrones on HBO is great!

Cable companies are universally regarded as only slightly more popular than evil dictators, and a little less fashionable than certain strains of STDs. How do you fix something like that? Honesty! We’re awful; we’re unstoppable; you’ll hate us; deal with it. That’s something you could respect (and which would be applicable basically everywhere in the world but east Asia).
