On the internet there are memes and many of them are videos. This is not a list of video memes but you can find them here. No, this is a list of historic moments, interesting tidbits and forgotten video pieces of gold. Sit back and enjoy. I could go on but I'll make another list … Continue reading 50 video moments you need to see

20 things the military taught me
I spent a year in the military right after high school as do most men in Finland. People often tell me they found the experience to be unecessary and pointless but I don't think so. I went through officer training and learned a lot about not only defense strategies and coordinate calculation but also about … Continue reading 20 things the military taught me
Pop culture overload
I'm a pop culture junkie. Growing up in the 80's and 90's I had three ways of finding information - TV, magazines and books. What interested me the most were stories about films, video games and world changing events and I would get a glimpse here and there. I would dream about seeing strange movies … Continue reading Pop culture overload
The apps of our lives
Our phones have gone from merely being a communications tool to being an essential part of helping us through life. Among other things we find our way, kill time, schedule things and I for one wouldn't last long without it. Three years back I wrote a post on some of the apps that I was … Continue reading The apps of our lives
Design and fashion – Everything must go
With a bit of extra time on my hands I've roamed through my vast collection of design objects and started selling some of it. I'm currently using Huuto.net but I'll probably move onto Etsy in the following months. If there's anything specific you're looking for, drop me a note and I'll see what I can … Continue reading Design and fashion – Everything must go
Interactive album cover looping gifs galore!
At ThingLink I get to work with Universal/Interscope to make perfectly looping gifs, also known as cinemagraphs. Animation of still components is somewhat hard to do but I enjoyed the challenge.

Online services worth your hard earned cash
We've come to expect most things to be free online whether it be movies, music or news. There are however services worth paying for, if not only to keep them up and running. There's a saying: If you're not paying for the product, you are the product. I pay about 45 euros every month to … Continue reading Online services worth your hard earned cash
Things left behind
Over the years I've become picky about what I buy when thrifting. It's used to be that I picked up most things and just stored them or sold them for a small profit. These days I only buy things that I really want and find interesting, or things I can flip for five times the … Continue reading Things left behind
Great Obscure Soundtracks On Spotify
Soundtracks have a special place in my heart and especially obscure ones. I've been scouring Spotify for a few months for rare themes and below is my growing playlist with close to 300 hand picked tracks. Spotify has really not made it easy to find new interesting music and I both searched and used the … Continue reading Great Obscure Soundtracks On Spotify
Be the change you want to see
I've never been patriotic and I can't say that I ever really felt my country to be my own. I grew up with different kinds of people, with various cultural backgrounds, using a different language compared to others around me. Still I always felt that I was accepted. The last couple of years there has … Continue reading Be the change you want to see
