is a guy from dutchland. he builds “animals” out of plastic pipes and stuff. they walk with the wind. amazing!
his homepage contains a few short movies!
There is also this ad from BMW South Africa that captures the moment quite well!

I found a new toy – iLike – a sidebar for iTunes. it shows you similar musik to the one you hear right now and (this is much better) similar free music from new bands!

it integrates as a sidebar into your itunes so you do nothing – play your musik and click the get free music by new artist button and download and download and download! Beware kids – this one is a nice time sucker!
and sorry – only for os x – time to switch!!
