Miss Polaroids? Try Poladroid View Comments

This downloadable application (for Mac only, sorry) will transform your pics into digital Polaroids. Get ready to feel nostalgic. To begin the process, simply:

1. drag your original image into the virtual Poladroid camera app on your desktop
2 Watch the new image come out and wait for it to develop (shaking it like a Polaroid picture won’t make it go faster… I tried)
3. A jingle and a red ribbon will let you know when the picture is ready
4. Click on the picture to save a full size version in your pictures folder


Why didn’t Polaroid think of this?! I wonder if this will catch on like Mangatars did last month. I wouldn’t be surprised if Facebook gets filled with Poladroids in the next couple of weeks, although the fact that is not a web based service is sure to turn off a lot of people. That and the fact that is not programmed in English.

Best clips of Madonna Sticky Sweet Tour View Comments

Thanks to the YouTube bootlegers for letting me relive my Madonna weekend. I went to her last two performances of the Sticky Sweet tour in Madison Square Garden, which were filled with some pleasant surprises. Below are the best moments of the concert:

Britney Spear’s Video Cameo during “Human Nature”

Madonna wilds out during “She’s Not Me”

Madonna Vogues for the first time since Re-invention World Tour (2004)

Madonna “Into the Groove” while jumping rope with Keith Haring

And last but not least, some good old Sarah Palin hatin’. On The Saturday performance Madonna said, “this is what Sarah Palin’s brain sounds like when she’s thinking” while scratching her guitar strings for a good minute.
