Designer//Slash//Model is a short but funny video that will nicely bridge you from Friday to your weekend!
Clone pictures are very creative and fun pictures you can make with your kids, friends and even yourself. Clone pictures are essentially pictures where there are two or more image of any one character in a scene composited together to tell a short story.
In my first appearance on the Lab with Leo, I did a tutorial on how to create clone pictures using GIMP. If you happened to miss the show and would like to learn how to make clone pictures I have prepared an online tutorial that you can follow.
If you live in Canada or Australia you can watch me on Wednesday’s episode of Leo Laporte’s newest show The Lab With Leo. In Canada it airs on G4/TechTV at 1pm and 6pm EST. In Australia you can find Leo on the How To Channel. I recently taped 4 episodes, and hope to become a regular contributor. The show is being produced out of Vancouver and being involved in the production was a lot of fun and brought back good memories of the days when I worked in television. Even more fun, I was able to bring my four year old son Owen to the studio for the taping. While we were taping my segment, Owen was playing Star Wars Lego on the video game wall. Leo was fantastic to work with and I was amazed at how much he actually knows about tech.
On a side note, if you live in the USA, and would like to see Leo back on the air, be sure to give your Cable or Satellite provider a call and request that show be picked up in the US.

Since it’s a really loooong weekend coming up, here is a short time waster to ease you out of your work week. The Inbox Of Nardo Pace, The Empire’s Worst Engineer is hilarious! It is a series of email sent by your favorite Star Wars bad guys (yes including Darth Vader) to the Empire’s most brilliant mind.
Here are a couple more Mac/PC spoof ads. This time a third character, Linux, is mixed into the fold.
Hmmmm - Linux is way hotter than Windows or OSX!
So I just became a full-time Mac user! I have two Apples at home and one at work. I still have a PC, but it gets turned on less than once a month. Even though I have sooooo been drinking Steve Job’s Kool-aid, Laurie McGuinness’ Mac PC Spoofs are really funny. Check them out for a quick laugh!
