Darwinian Evolution: Forwards and Backwards

Having been hunched over a laptop for about 18 of the past 24 hours (and since a Sony Google TV is on route as a gift), I thought this image would be appropriate for my blog banner. What do you think?

Feel free to use it in your next presentation. It’s adapted from the Darwin evolutionary image (source unknown), and I created the “sitting laptop man” based on some posture clip art. Then added a cell phone to primitive man, and a laptop to our ape ancestors.

Admit it… we’re just a few evolutionary moves away from being giant pieces of fat and flesh with tiny opposable thumbs for texting and remote controls.

Secret URL to Subscribe to YouTube Channel

How do you provide a link that automatically takes a viewer to the YouTube page that allows them to confirm a subscription?

It took me quite a while to find this secret URL:

http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=nalts

So you’d replace “Nalts” above with your channel/profile/username. And while you’re at it, subscribe to Nalts. 🙂

Of course the person clicking that URL would have to have a YouTube account, be logged in, and confirm the subscription.
