The Globe and Mail has an article about what a hotbed Vancouver is for the Video Game industry. I’m interested in working with a company mentioned in this article, hopefully I’ll be able to secure an internship there this summer.

Google never ceases to amaze me! They are offering a new storage service for videos that users upload themselves.

We’re accepting digital video files of any length and size. Simply sign up for an account and upload your videos using our Video Uploader (please be sure you own the rights to the works you upload), and, pending our approval process and the launch of this new service, we’ll include your video in Google Video, where users will be able to search, preview, purchase and play it.

Did you know you can use Google as a free proxy server? By submitting a specially-crafted, English-to-English translation query, you can capitalize on Google’s translation service to anonymously submit all your Web requests.

So if you’re at a school or workplace and would like to reach content that is otherwise inaccessible, try this hack. It’s not like they’re going to ban the world’s best search engine.

Gran Faro is a blog with 622 links to various music videos. From “A Perfect Circle” to “Yeah, Yeah”.

Update: I have discovered a similar but more updated list.
