Revolution Will Not Be Televised

… It will be Chatrouletted. If you haven’t played with Chatroulette.com yet… prepare to be freaked out as you are randomly connected with chatters across the world – boys, girls, perverts and all. Forget the days of A/S/L. Could this be the dead end of the human interaction? Or perhaps, in the future, a tool for anonymous communication… a sort of underground word of mouth? Anyway, imagination aside, Casey Neistat recently published an entertaining, crafty explanation to this new cyber-trend. Oh and one more thing, if you are planning on checking out Chat Roulette just make sure to try and avoid ‘Peak Masterbater Hour’ which, from my experience seems to be… all the time…
High School Bike Bus

High School Bike Bus from Keri Caffrey on Vimeo.
For far too long have the jocks with the nice cars been praised at High School. Whether it be the class of ‘69 jock pulling up in his black Camaro, the class of ‘84 cheerleader standing next to her red Mustang 5.0 or the or the class of ‘01 basket ball star rolling up to school in his Hummer; no longer do these symbols of class impress us. It was cool for a long time, but now? That’s why this story really made my day.
The student initiated bike club rides every morning and picks up its members, just like a school bus, so that they can all ride together. A teacher from their school adds, “This club is definitely ‘the thing’ to do at the school right now. The school is located in a district where a lot of people ride out of necessity, so I can’t say cycling was a cool thing before. I would say many people saw people riding and associated it with the poorest members of their community. The club is changing perceptions among the students for sure. Additionally, these kids understand that they are changing perceptions about Orlando as a cycling city and they are all over it.”
