I have no idea how I came across this…but here is a totally random video from open source evil genius whurley I dug up on YouTube. I can't tell if the bearded hippy is whurley or not, but I know for damn sure that it's his board (built by longboardlarry.net) in the video!
Keep an eye out for whurley…he's about to release an onslaught of social media goodness on several sites. More on that when as he launches each web-treat.

While at the University of Texas at austin, Todd Ross Nienkerk spent five years on the staff of the Texas Travesty, the largest college humor publication in the nation. The unique, meritocractic structure of the Travesty taught him every aspect of magazine production. Writing, illustration, photography, ad sales, distribution—Todd did a bit of everything, even spending two proud, lucky years as the Travesty’s editor-in-chief.
after graduating in May, 2005, with a ba in psychology and a bS in radio-television-film—at UT, radio and film are considered “sciences,” while psychology is merely an “art”—Todd spent a year working in an office, applying to various graduate creative writing programs and filing their all-too-speedy rejection letters.
Nuts to this, he told the voice in his head, and his friends and Todd started Four Kitchen Studios.
In this video podcast from barcamp austin II, Todd shares a glimpse into the future with a presentation of a new Web 5.0 technology he has been working on in his…kitchen.
