David’s Mom Rules

No, this isn’t David’s mom.

David Robinson and I have been friends for many years now. No, not the basketball player, he’s actually a UED guy on lots of web projects. David’s blog states it’s about *design, funnies and general debauchery*. I think this photo (found on David’s blog) fits into each of those themes.

When I describe the Twiistup blog to people I say it’s about *cool things on and off the web* and I think, er hope that this photo fits into both of those themes. I’m not if there’s a theme that this photo doesn’t fit into – it’s just that cool. Actually, the coolest part is that David’s mom sent it to him. I’m going to try and get David’s mom to go to Twiistup 2. Although Twiistup 3 (in Vancouver BC CA) might be a shorter trip for her since she’s in Canada.

The absolute coolest thing about this photo is how much I’ve managed to write about it. It’s just that cool. Thanks to David mom for sending it to David and thanks to David for posting it – check out his blog for other cool pix (like this one).

JibJab to Showoff at Twiistup 2

The JibJab crew joins our group of showoffs at Twiistup 2. They’ll be on hand to talk about their contributions to the viral video space as well as what’s going on at JibJab.com.

Brothers Greg and Evan Spiridellis founded JibJab in 1999 in their Brooklyn garage. Their hilarious, mostly political, animated cartoons have been passing from machine to machine ever since.

Their first hit was an interactive video of the Founding Fathers rapping about the Declaration of Independence, followed by a Bush/Gore rap battle during the 2000 Presidential campaign. After a two-year slump, due to the dot com bust, JibJab exploded back into the mainstream with “This Land”, which thrust them into the media spotlight, and “Good to be in DC”, which premiered on The Tonight Show.

Today, JibJab, based in Santa Monica, is made up of a team of artists, tech geniuses and business minds. JibJab teamed with ThePartyParty.com to produce their latest video “Star Spangled Banner”. You can find their videos, as well as, user generated video jokes on their website www.jibjab.com, where you can also download free JibJab videos for your ipod.
