Nokia gets HONEST

Honest directed and produced a series of viral films for the Nokia N95 phone. Computers are jealous of the phones’ advanced technology so they start attacking people. We caught some of these attacks on tape and interviewed a couple of the victims. One was bitten on her chin and another had his ears chewed off. Nasty stuff. They were launched on YouTube and on Jealouscomputers.com

The Learn List

People often ask me about tutorials for various programs and until recently, I only knew of a couple good sites.
In their own words " The Learn List is a super simple resource that aims to gather the best tutorial and book links from all over the web."

Everything is neatly organized and rated for easy access.
Enjoy.
