Today at exactly 8:00 in the morning, Apple opens the door to accept their orders of the new iPhone 3G. Similar to the commotion of the last iPhone, crows have lined up heavily last night to claim their spot in front of Apple and AT&T stores. People who were skeptical to purchase about the first iPhone a year ago, are now lined up, waiting for the new and improved iPhone 3G. The “launch” of the new iPhone doesn’t end there, in various places like YouTube & Flickr, owners of the new iPhone post up pictures, videos, reviews and most importantly their “love”.

For those you missed the commotion, here’s the experience all recorded.

The Launch

Great Wave + Blue Jeans

Found this really awesome picture of Hokusai’s Great Wave made from blue jeans. At first I couldn’t make up what the blue things were, it looked like shreaded blue papers with Hokusai’s painting. But when I looked closely at the length of the medium, and the texture on them, I soon recognize that they were all blue jeans!

The Day the Earth Stood Still is a 2008 science fiction film, a remake of the 1951 film of the same name. Directed by Scott Derrickson and starring Keanu Reeves as Klaatu, the film updates the Cold War themes of man against man, to the more contemporary concerns of man against nature.

  • After witnessing this picture, I think there is a solution to the the notion in Wall-E, that mankind are becoming too dependent on robot that we grow obese. But with this combination, things could be back to normal, at least the tire-looking belly. In this picture, someone has combined the best of a information highway in front of a treadmill that doesn’t get you anymore. With this combination, the person could enjoy watching a movie or two AND spend that time losing some calorie. A  genius reinnovation which we should all follow.

    Ok back to reality.
