Unicode
it shows all displayable characters in the unicode range 0 – 65536 (49571 characters). one character per frame.
I dare you stare at this for 5 minutes. (The rest is mostly Chinese and Hangul and not as pornographic.)
Rapcat
Whoever is responsible for not showing this to me in 2007 is in big trouble.
60 things in 60 seconds
I like this commercial mainly because I imagine Reyholm Jr. from the IT Crowd narrating it.
Fight For Your Right - Revisited
I guess a lot of celebrities are Beastie Boys fans? This trailer for the upcoming album is most likely better than the album itself will be.
Name of the Year 2011
The 2011 ballot is finally out. I've got Taco B.M. Monster defeating Courvoisier Winetavius Richardson in the final round.

Safety Maps
Also good for making maps to your favorite bar.
Pica Pic
Wonderful simulations of old handheld electronic games.
James’ Face
I like going onto my friends Facebook page, taking photos of him, changing his face slightly then putting them back up on Facebook. He doesn’t like me doing this.
Randall Munroe’s Radiation Dose Chart
Helpful to put things in perspective.
My Favorite Color
A new YouTube mashup by Kutiman, creator of Thru-You.
Simon Pegg and Nick Frost’s Star Wars
“Try and make it sound like a series of sophisticated bleeps and whistles.”
The Beach Boys to Finally Release Smile Sessions
Even the 1967 bootlegs are much better than the 2004 release, IMO.
The Smartest Dog in the World
Some days go better than others.
The Content Farm
Informative articles about every topic, written by people with a passing knowledge.
Puppy vs. Ice Cube
Dawwwwww
Lag
An animated tale of high latency.
Fuck Yeah Nouns
Fuck yeah!

Verizon iPhone Ad
They didn’t even need to show the phone.
