Implosion of the Internet is Imminent
Also, I have the coolest last name in the world.
So what does that have to do with the implosion? Running ICHC leads to SXSW, which leads to Twitter, which leads to Digg homepage, which leads BACK to Twitter, which leads to Son of a Tweet, which is one of our network sites…
Kari explodes into joy when she gets a Happy Cat at SXSW
I gave Kari (co-founder of ICHC) a little gift…
SXSW 2009 picks up where SXSW 2008 left off
There’s something magical about being at SXSW. For instance, my dinner companions tonight were: Jeffrey Kalmikoff (of Threadless), Kevin Rose (founder of Digg), Aaron Peckham (founder of Urban Dictionary), Micah Baldwin (#1 douchebag and a great guy), Gary and AJ Vaynernerchuk, the CTO of I Can Has Cheezburger?, Scott Porad and on and on. Of course, Gary picked two great bottles of wine to go with our meal at Fogo de Chao.
Ridiculousness and dinner tab roulette ensued and I’ll post videos when I get back. If you’re at SXSW, you know where to @ me.

Viral Drummer Video Awesome Kimchee-ness
Videos like this defines exactly why the Internet is an awesome cultural wonderland.
A piece of content that has virtually no value finds meaning in a new context and a new time. Then, like a salmon swimming upstream, it finally finds its home in the hearts and minds of those who want it the most.
The ‘Tubes makes me just as happy as that drummer.
