Uprising by James Durbin (cover of Muse on American Idol 2011)

Anyone still watching American Idol? I have not seen it for a couple years. My daughter had me play this video today and it was pretty amazing. Since when could they have extras come on stage with them??

The Death of a Thousand Condiments — Quick Preview

For any of you familiar with the bet Keith Cramer and I had here on Google+ this last week, I lost. I'll post more later describing the experience, but for now, here is a quick video preview Kristi Fahlsing shot on her cell phone.

It was worse than I imagined. (more later…)

Wandering Star by Lee Marvin

From the move Paint Your Wagon. This movie is one of my earliest movie memories and an endearing favorite. There is nothing about it I do not like. Enjoy. Did I mention Clint Eastwood is on the soundtrack too? 😉

Good night G+. {cue music} {fade to black…}

Are you using Google translate?

If not, you should be! Being able to translate a post or comment on the fly and communicate with someone who otherwise you would have just ignored… well, it's awesome.

Thanks Mike Elgan for the post!

Want Google+ to be truly international?

Plus-one and share this post!

Why? Because this column tells how why and how everyone can use Google Translate to eliminate the language barrier.

Since the beginning, web users have been separated by language, where people who don't speak the same language have remained strangers.

But now, with Google+ and Google Translate, we have for the first time ever a place where most of the world's population can meet and talk without being separated by different languages.

So please plus-one and share this post. Let's get it to the What's Hot list, and convince everyone on Google+ to use Google Translate!

Concession Speech!

Sorry it took a few, but I kind of thought a picture was worth a thousand words! Congratulations brother Keith and Team Keith! The Hail Mary play in the final moments was pure genius! +Mike Elgan, The Force is strong with you!

Tomorrow I shall face The Death of a Thousand Condiments with dignity and the irony that I purchased them all this evening. As the honey, marshmallow cream, peanut butter, syrup, and myriad of other foul and sticky substances cover me, I shall look back upon this journey and think, "Curse you Mike Elgan!" 😉

I will drip, stick, and ooze (literally) with pride for the efforts of Team Scott, nay, for the efforts of BOTH teams, who are truly some of the most awesome and engaging G-plussers of any circle count.

Barring a toxic mixture of discount condiments that either removes me from this plane of existence or gives me super-powers (please! please!) I shall return to interact with all of you soon!

Sincerely,
Scott "Is it too late to make this The Death of Three Condiments?" Cramer

Keith FTW:

Two Brothers, Eerily Similar Music PIck

Yesterday I asked people to give me the ONE song they would pick if that's all they could listen to ever again! You weren't supposed to think much, just blurt one out. It took brother +Keith Cramer a day to post and, it turns out, he and I picked eerily similar songs. Weirder yet, he picked my favorite band and I didn't.

Heaven's on Fire by KISS

When Heaven Comes Down by Dokken:
Dokken – When heaven comes down

The Death of a Thousand Condiments

This is the punishment in a little challenge my brother and I have. I promise you, it will be messy.

In a nutshell (fitting) we each picked 50 active users and put them in a shared circle. We wrote down how many followers each user had. At the end of the week we are going to check their followers. The team with the biggest increase in overall followers wins. Either Keith or myself will be the first to experience "THE DEATH OF A THOUSAND CONDIMENTS!" http://goo.gl/K93J3
