Traveler Christoph Rehage made an amazing video while taking an extremely long hike. Over the course of a year, while walking 4500 km through Europe and Asia, he photographed himself every day and complied those images into a video. A pretty ambitious effort with enjoyable results. See what you think of this hearty world roamer.

Spricket24's "Glowing Monkeys"

I simply like listening to this girl. She's funny. Fortunately, she talks about stuff I am interested in. Here she goes on about how scientists have introduced a special gene into monkeys that make them glow in the dark. You remember the glowing bunnies, right?

Idiocracy - Why The World Is Getting Dumber

Here's the opening sequence of Mike Judge's cult film "Idiocracy". Briefly it demonstrates that idiots breed faster than smarter people, and that will lead to a hillbilly-like society of really, really low IQ citizens.

Geekologie - Stuff For Your Geekish World

I'm guessing there are other websites out that are devoted to "I'm a Geek and fiercely proud of it" lifestyle. But, Geekologie takes a good stab at providing the totally-commited Geek with the mind candy he or she needs to be happy. (Perhaps they should have called it "Nerd Diversion") As such, it's full of gadgets, entertainment and techno-gossip that will excite even the most obsessed "Dungeons and Dragons" brainiac.
