YouTube Now Streams “Sideshow” In High Definition!

Posted by Bradley under Art, Movies, Personal, Technology

YouTube is now offering a “Watch in HD” option for videos that were originally uploaded from an HD source.

Previously, the link read “Watch in High Quality” which really wasn’t HD quality.

As we reported earlier, YouTube recently switched from a 4:3 aspect ratio to a 16:9 aspect ratio which brought the widescreen video format necessary to support High Definition video.

Without further adieu…

Enjoy Blatant Mockery‘s “Sideshow” in HD.

It really looks great!

The comparison shots above don’t do it any justice.

Hit up the link and please rate and comment on YouTube!!

Obama’s Blog: Scenes From Election Night

Posted by Bradley under Movies, News, Personal

Barack Obama‘s blog has a Flickr slide show of photos taken during Election Night 2008 with some great behind the scenes shots.

My favorites are Obama‘s reaction to McCain‘s, admittedly, moving concession speech.

And you might have seen this amazing picture floating around the tubes yesterday.

Completely unofficial and probably staged but moving none-the-less.
