Video Fun: How to sneak alcohol onto a cruise ship

By web gangsta | Published: May 4, 2012


It’s a game played everywhere around the world:

Tourists find ways to sneak alcohol onto cruise ships, and cruise ships do everything they can to prevent their guests from doing so.

Web Watch has seen cases of beer and liquor be confiscated time and time again when unsuspecting passengers attempt to circumvent the ship’s rules about bringing contraband onboard.

We completely understand, and would never dream of trying to sneak any excess liquor onto our next cruise vacation by replacing the shampoo in a bottle with Kahlua.

That’s just nasty.

By web gangsta | Published: April 15, 2012


Quick – how many of you sing while in the shower?

Oh, don’t lie.  We all know that over 55% of you do it (we’ve seen the studies).  Besides, MAY 15th  is NATIONAL SING IN THE SHOWER DAY, so you better be prepared.

Video Fun: Infomercial Audio Dubs

By web gangsta | Published: April 9, 2012


“BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!”

“I’ve fallen, and I can’t get up!”

“Pay just shipping and handling…”

All of these catchphrases have become part of the lexicon of late night television viewing.  But for every Oxyclean success story, there are millions of other As Seen on TV products that doing everything they can to get the word out that they are out there for sale.

And the ubiquitous commercials have become ripe for parody.  Take a look at these hilarious audio overdubs of some of your favorite late night TV viewing choices:

Reason #6 why MAGIC: The Gathering games should be covered by ESPN

By web gangsta | Published: March 10, 2012


Web Watch has a number of friends who play the collectible card game MAGIC: THE GATHERING.

They get together every week or two to play, have a few beers, and enjoy each other’s company. We’ve tried playing MTG (as the nerds refer to it), but Web Watch just couldn’t get into it. We’ve played online card-based games, such as MONSTER MASTER, and for us they seem to be more fun online than in person — but then again, games like that have simpler rules than MTG would have, which ultimately makes MTG a more interesting game overall.

Video Fun: Apparently, you CAN get arrested at Disneyland. Peppersprayed, too

By web gangsta | Published: March 1, 2012


Disneyland and Walt Disney World are often referred to as the “Happiest Places on Earth”.

And for good reason.

But there is an underbelly that seldom sees the light of day.  And it proves that even with the fantasy worlds that Walt built, sometimes people crack a bit under the pressure to always have a good time and escape.

Perhaps there’s a reason that alcohol is hard to find at the Magic Kingdom (unless, of course, you know where to look).

Let’s take a look at how Disney’s professional security teams deal with unruly, and occasionally violent, guests:

Can you really see the Great Wall of China from space?

By web gangsta | Published: February 10, 2012


Web Watch has often been told that you can see the Great Wall of China from outer space.  That it was the only man-made object that was visible by astronauts.

Apparently, that’s not true.  Never has been.

There are some things that you CAN see from space… but the Great Wall is not one of them.

Web Watch is always amazed at the creativity that the Internet has sparked.

Maybe that creativity and innovation has always been there, but the Internet has certainly made finding these things more exciting and accessible to all.

Is that YouTube video legal? Check out the YouTube Copyright School to learn more

Harry Potter and the Order of the Court: The J.K. Rowling Copyright Case and the Question of Fair Use
Harry Potter and the Order of the Court:
The J.K. Rowling Copyright Case and the Question of Fair Use

Copyright is an important aspect of online life today, and not very many people understand it.

“The Internet is FREE”, they claim.  “Everything on the Internet is free for the taking!”

No, not so much.  Rule number one of Internet legalities:  Just because someone posted it on the Internet doesn’t mean that there is no copyright or that the material is free to be shared/taken. 

Fact is, the very act of writing something yourself gives you an automatic copyright to that material that YOU created.  Let’s emphasize that YOU created portion again.  It has to be original work from YOU for you to claim the copyright – and even then, you can only claim the copyright on the portion that YOU edited.

Even large mass-edited projects like Wikipedia have a copyright… but Wikipedia explicitly says that the individual Wikipedia editors can’t claim copyright on the text that is contributed directly to Wikipedia articles — just adding the text to Wikipedia grants Wikipedia a licence to make that text available for public use.  (Content that is already copyrighted outside of Wikipedia and still contributed by the original author falls under a different set of copyright guidelines — be sure to read that WP article for all the copyright details that may pertain to you.)
