The most interesting part of this read is not just the motivation and inspiration behind these 40 people, but the wierdest facts about them.

For instance,

Tiger Woods college nickname is “Urkel”,

both founders of Google, worth over $18 Billion each, still share the same office to cut costs,

Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook’s business card says “I’m CEO …B#*CH”,

CEO of Walmart.com was a GANG LEADER for a day……AND is anyone surprised that the Maker of Family Guy is on this list…Good Job Seth!!

DID YOU KNOW..Peter’s voice is inspired by the voice of a security guard MacFarlane overheard talking while attending the Rhode Island School of Design.  Stewie’s voice was based on the voice of English actor Rex Harrison,  particularly on Harrison’s performance in the 1964 musical drama film My Fair Lady.  Brian’s voice is MacFarlane’s regular speaking voice

Well our friends at PopularMechanics.com, not only give us the GREAT NEWS but explain the possibility below….enjoy the great read!  What MOvie will you watch first on 3D at Home??

The reality is dawning on us...Pic Courtesy of PopularMechanics.com

Fly Me to the Moon may be the first digital 3D movie to get an all-3D theatrical release, but it certainly won’t be the last. What’s more, theatrical runs are just the beginning of a film’s revenue stream. And soon enough, studios will be looking for ways to cash in on 3D beyond the multiplex through TV broadcasts, airplane screenings, pay-per-view and DVD sales. That means bringing 3D off the big screen and onto the flat screen. And while the technology isn’t quite there yet for re-creating a 3D theaterÐlike experience at home, the next year will see a huge shift in that direction, as new home-oriented 3D technologies become available to consumers, and studios try to find ways to recoup production costs after a movie has left theaters.software and hardware.“3D-capable.” But without the proper equipment and content, this feature largely goes unused. Software company DDD sells an accessory pack that allows anybody with a 3D-capable TV to watch any 2D DVD in 3D. The pack includes glasses, an emitter that will sync the glasses with the TV and a DVD containing software that will allow home viewers to perform real-time 3D conversion of any 2D DVD or PC-stored media file. Samsung introduced a branded version of the kit (with only one set of glasses) this summer. In order to take advantage of these, consumers will need to hook their PC up to their TV, and play the movies through the computer’s DVD player.RealD technology, but they should improve as the technology becomes more sophisticated. “If the RealD 3D films are a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10, these come off as a 6 or 7,” says Douglas Hunter, vice president of licensing for DDD, the company that makes the conversion software for Samsung.

There will be two types of 3D content available for home viewers: movies shot and sold as 3D discs, and 2D footage that is converted in real time into 3D through sophisticated

Today, a large number of DLP and plasma TVs are being billed as

Despite some high-end DIY attempts like from the startup Encyclopedia Pictura, instant conversions of 2D content into 3D don’t look nearly as good as content that was made specifically for 3D using

Further down the line, TVs could come with built-in 3D-conversion technology, allowing for real-time transfer of any live television program. Hyundai IT makes and sells this kind of set in Japan now. Japan is also ahead of the game when it comes to 3D broadcasting. At least one Japanese TV station dedicates 30 minutes to an hour of airtime every night to 3D footage. To date, no stations in America have any plans for such broadcasts.

Facebook Is making Money ...YAY!

WOW!  This is a great day for Facebook, “The Social Networking Giant” ( i’m getting tired of saying this) because not only did they break into 300 million (or milli) users but they are finally making money. 

And the most interesting part is they broke profit 2 years ahead of their plan.  Looks like they have been hiring some HUGE players on their team lately.

Even though you may not be to afford that badboy, MSN has provided us broke college students with 10 new or used cars for under $10,000.As my 1999 Toyota Camry lays dormant in a car repair shop for transmission problems, buying a new car has crossed my mind multiple times. Why pay $1,000 for a engine repair on a car on its last miles when you can ride around campus in some of these bad boys? I have 5 more years of schooling down in Charlottesville and stipend money will not and cannot fund an Audi A8. So for all of you who are looking to get a nice older car or a brand-spankin’ new car, take a look at these! My favorite is the 2003 Infiniti G35 Sedan. What car deals have you guys found out in this recession?

Recently I have heard a lot about Twitter, much too much I think. What is all the excitement about? Status updates are nothing new, didn’t we have it on facebook, AIM and other IM clients? Well first of all, Twitter has gotten the attention of celebrities and their fans. Ashton Kutcher’s challenge with CNN to reach 1 million subscribers first didnt hurt of course. According to various articles I have read its ability to have easy access to the updates via SMS, online or other applications has made it very easy for non-web friendly  users to use it.  It also gained fast popularity when victims of the Mumbai attacks used it to report information. Also,  when that plane crashed in the water in New York earlier this year a twitter user uploaded a picture before traditional media was able to do so.

In any case, we facebook users are not likely to catch on to the twitter bug just yet. We dont really feel the need yet, we like to have it all in one place unless some amazing features compell us to it. We are/were compelled to Facebook, Gmail, itunes, iphone, etc. because they had features that set it apart from the rest and were fun to use. Besides twitter just steals its ideas from the superior but less flashy friendfeed.com,  don’t believe me? Check it out

Tell us what you think? Will twitter catch on to the Facebook crowd? Do you use friendfeed? Tired of social networking (I’m starting to)?
