Google added an exciting new feature to Google Images: a face filter to search for faces!
If you go to Google Images and type in the word you’re looking for and then append &imgtype=face to the end of the search results url, Google will return images with faces only.
Here’s an example:

It’s not a huge sale, but if you happen to own an HDTV and an Xbox 360 and haven’t picked up the HD-DVD Player to go along with it, nows your chance.
Future Shop is bundling the XBox 360 HD-DVD Player with the newly released HD-DVD release of The Matrix Trilogy for only $249.99. That’s a savings of $30. Definitely a nice little savings if you were thinking of making the upgrade and wanted to pick up a stack of DVD’s to boot.
I happen to own this HD-DVD Player and I couldn’t be happier with it. It used to ship with King Kong for free, so you might luck out and get the version bundled with that as well to bring your movie total on day one up to four.
You can get this deal here.

This one goes out to all my homies. Word to your mothers and so on.
It’s hard to not be amused by a man teasing the drive-thru box — but rapping his order at it? That’s priceless.
Interesting fact. I can go to any McDonald’s drive thru in North America, say “It’s Jim,” and they’ll know exactly what I want. True story.

I’ve been very busy lately and hadn’t checked my smartcanucks email for a while… today I went through my unread emails and guess what I found… not deals, not freebies… but facebook invitations! from people I’ve never met: and note that this is not my personal email!
Facebook is the 19th most visited website in the world and the 4th most visited in Canada. Toronto has the largest number of facebook users in the world. A city like Kingston with a population of 120,000 has 32,000 facebook users! a huge number!
Since there’s a lot of interest in facebook - I spend waste a lot of time on it too - here are a couple of hilarious facebook songs:
This Sunday only 10:30am - 3:00pm get a free Original Hamburger at participating Ontario restaurants… the burger in the above picture looks so yummy
I’m going to a wedding tomorrow, and I’ve had a heck of a time coming up with the right gift. We’re big believers in getting people gifts that stand out so they’ll always remember the who gave it, and there was little in their registry save for towels and dishes. While trying to come up with gift ideas this afternoon I came across DesignerGifts.com. If only I’d found out about this place two weeks ago, I could’ve gotten them something fantastic! Instead it looks like they’re going to be getting a popcorn maker.
I just thought I should bring DesignerGifts to everyones attention since, not only do they ship to Canada, but they have an entire section dedicated to cheap gifts. Despite the affordibility, most of the items in the cheap bin are very unique. Definitely something worth checking out the next time you have to get a gift for someone and you’re just not sure what they’d like. If you’re not worried about price, they have a good selection of other items too — like digital picture frames and gift ideas for men.
Next time you don’t know what to buy for that special occasion, you should definitely check it out.
“I’ll make you a hamburger better than McDonald’s.” “Better than McDonalds??”
It may be hard for you to remember back this far, but there was a time somewhere between the invention of the wheel and the election of George Bush the First when Eddie Murphy was funny. Really funny. Like - genius funny. During that period he released two concert films. The second of these films, RAW, contained four of my favorite minutes of McDonald’s related humour. Not so much because it was about McDonald’s, but because it was about an experience I think we’ve all had as a child when we ask our mothers to take us to McDix.
A bit of forewarning though — this clip does contain a mid-80’s Eddie Murphy level of profanity (about the same I’d use in regular conversation), so it may not be safe for work, kids, or soccer mom’s with a heart condition. If you enjoy this clip, feel free to check out this other great moment from RAW that was included as part of fjetsam’s April Fools collection.
