Upgrade Me: Our Amazing Journey to Human 2.0
Do you remember the classic TV show, MAN FROM ATLANTIS?
It featured an actor with webbed fingers and toes, able to swim deep into the ocean to solve crimes. Our recollection is that he had gills and could breath underwater like Aquaman, but there’s been a lot of alcohol in our system since then so we may be confusing two different characters.
But the webbed fingers and toes? Those were real. Continue reading HATE YOUR BODY? TRY A HUMAN UPGRADE
Digital Boudoir Photography:
A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Fabulous Images of Any Woman

It was the case with VHS vs Beta video tapes. It’s been the case with online payments. And it’s been the case with social media.
Porn is a big money-making industry, and the Internet has just made it easy for Anyone to do it. And we’re not just talking about those leaked celebrity sex tapes, either. Continue reading HOW MUCH MONEY DO PORN WEBSITES MAKE?
How To Take Better Pictures Like A Pro
Whenever Web Watch goes on a trip – say to Las Vegas, Walt Disney World, San Francisco… wherever – we are completely dumbfounded by all the tourists and families who are trying to get “that perfect shot”.
They group their people together on one side of the walkway, then expect the entire crowd to stay out of the way while you compose the shot.
Have you ever been trying to get from Point A to Point B at any of these touristy spots without having to constantly stop to be courteous to these photo hounds? We’ve gotten to the point where we say, “Screw it – they’re using a digital camera or their phone, they can take another shot” and we walk right through the photo opp. We’ve got place to be, folks – so let us move on and get out of your way. Continue reading HOW TO TAKE PROFESSIONAL PICTURES OF YOUR FAMILY WITHOUT PAYING FOR A PROFESSIONAL
How to Take Great Vacation Photographs
Web Watch, like many of you, loves to take vacation photos. We all do it, in part, as a way to remember where we’ve been and seen, but also to capture those moments that we can later reflect upon as being relaxing, happy times with special someones.
Of course, as we review our own vacation photos, they mainly end up being about the food we ate rather than the places we went. C’est la vie.
Continue reading HERE’S WHY NOBODY WANTS TO LOOK AT YOUR VACATION PHOTOS
Bob Dorian’s Classic Movies:
Behind the Scenes of 100 Great Movies from Hollywood’s Golden Years
Who doesn’t love to see how movie magic is made behind the scenes?
Web Watch has wandered a few movie and television sets of our own, and are constantly surprised at how simple and poorly-constructed some of the sets and facades are when seen in person and up-close. They don’t call it “movie magic” for nothing.
Continue reading TAKE A LOOK BEHIND THE SCENES OF SOME CLASSIC FILMS
Fiasco: The Inside Story of a Wall Street Trader
Today, a quick one:
With this past week’s economic news just pummelling the stock markets around the world, sometimes you need to have just the perfect image that can encapsulate the feeling at the moment.

Have you ever wondered exactly how much money a celebrity photo from a paparazzi photographer is worth?
For some, not a whole heck of a lot of money. For others, it can make that lucky photographer’s year. Continue reading HOW MUCH DO PAPARAZZI PHOTOGRAPHERS MAKE PER CELEBRITY PHOTO?
Jogging may be good for you, but people who do it really look like hell while doing so.
Have you ever taken a good look at yourself while you’re exercising? Web Watch has. There’s a reason why we don’t work out any place where we can be seen – it’s just not a pretty thing to watch.
That’s why we really shouldn’t be surprised at the POST-RUN PHOTO ESSAY compiled by Sacha Goldberger. Continue reading JOGGING MAY BE GOOD FOR YOU, BUT YOU LOOK LIKE HELL DOING IT

We’ll be posting photos of this year’s sexy Disney Princesses in Real Life here. Bookmark this page for updates: Continue reading REAL-LIFE DISNEY PRINCESSES AT 2011 COMIC-CON

Web Watch has covered a few cosmetics-related articles in the past:
So when we ran across this video by LERNERT & SANDER entitled NATURAL BEAUTY, we knew we needed to bring it to your attention.
What the did was take Belgian model Hannelore Knuts and cover her face with an entire year’s worth of makeup. Continue reading NOT PRETTY: WEARING A YEAR’S WORTH OF MAKEUP AT ONE TIME
Disney’s Aladdin – Jasmine Adult Costume
Ryan Astamendi is a professional photographer with an extensive portfolio of work.
One thing that he is becoming known for is his ability to recreate classic Disney Princess animated characters and turn them into real-life models.
Take, for example, the above stock advertising photo for a Jasmine costume from Disney’s Aladdin. There’s nothing wrong with the photo or the model – it’s doing exactly what the marketing department requested. If you’re looking for a costume, it’s perfectly adequate… but if you’re looking for the “essence” of the character, you have to look elsewhere.
That’s why what Ryan does is much, much more than just take a photo or two. Continue reading PHOTOGRAPHER RYAN ASTAMENDI TAKES REAL-LIFE DISNEY PRINCESSES PHOTOS
Fisher Price Little People Lil’ Movers School Bus
Not everybody’s parents are as cool as Dale Price.
Even if his son, Rain, may have been slightly embarassed about his father’s occasional antics today – what Dale has done for the past year is something that will definitely make for some awesome family stories 10 or 20 years from now.
And Dale didn’t really do anything too complicated.
All he did was the same thing any other modern-day parent does – they send their children off to school on the schoolbus every day. Of course, Rain is also a teenager, with all the typical teenage angst. So Dale thought he’d try something a little different this past school year.
You know you want one. Everybody does.
And you know the best way to get a dog is to adopt an unwanted or abandoned puppy from an animal shelter rather than to go to a breeder and pay more money than necessary. Of course, if purebreds are your thing – then go for it, but if you listen to Bob Barker’s (and now Drew Carey’s) spiel at the end of every episode of THE PRICE IS RIGHT, you know that going to a shelter will give you the warm fuzzies – both literally and figuratively.

Deluxe Belly Cast & Bold Decorating Kit
Everywhere you look there are pictures of smug pregnant women.
Women who are thrilled with being pregnant, proud to show off their baby-oven – whether it be with belly casts or pumpkin paint.
And there’s nothing wrong with this. Many articles have been written about how some women become more beautiful to their spouses when they’re pregnant. How pregnancy only enhances her looks as she changes from “woman” to “mother”.
But there shouldn’t be a double-standard on this. Continue reading ADOPTING? TRY A “PREGNANCY” PHOTO GALLERY
The more things change, the more things change.
Some places are known for blowing the existing up and rebuilding from the ashes, history be damned. Other places embrace their history, making it difficult for any new development to take place lest it disturb the historical (in)significance of what’s present.
That’s why Web Watch loves websites like WHAT WAS THERE, as it tries to capture the glory of history, without worrying about keeping the march of progress down.
