• The Smurfs movie is making progress. It’s going to be a mix of live action and CGI animation, though, which worries us all.  “Alvin and the Chipmunks,” anyone?  ::sigh::

• What do you get when two Broadway musicals combine forces?  Mark Evanier linked to a video for “Avenue Jew” that made me laugh out loud.  Beware: It’s not for the kiddies, as you might imagine. You have seen “Avenue Q,” right?  Brilliant.

• The details for the next Mac OS X version are scarce, but exciting.  It might not have new features, but a leaner kernel with better handling of processes for dual-core processor chips and an easy way for developers to send processes to the GPU for handling?  Brilliant!

• Canon has a new ultra-low-end dSLR coming in July.  Too late for me, but it might bring more people into the fold.  The price isn’t in dollars, though, so don’t ask for a translation from me.

• Beautiful pics of the earth, taken from the Space Shuttle.

• And the Earth and moon, as seen from Mars!
