Social Media High School Yearbook 2011

Folks at Flowtown have created a nice infographic showing most of the Social Media Products as students of highschool. The yearbook of the Social Media High School Class of 2011 has got almost all your favorite social media networks and sites, from Facebook to Twitter, Google, Wikipedia, YouTube, Flickr, Reddit, Groupon, Quora and more. They have depicted different stereotypes and teenage angst for all the social media products included in the list. Although I liked the Class President LinkedIn, not sure how they decided the clubs.

Some Interesting Facts You Maybe Didn't Know About Nintendo

Nintendo in Japanese means, "Leave luck to heaven". Shigeru Miyamoto, the first staff artist at Nintendo, had always idolized Walt Disney, and given his background in design, realized that in order to conceptualize his dream he need to utilize programming. By 1990, his creation of Mario had already become more recognizable than Mickey Mouse.

The top 3 franchises at Nintendo were: Mario [$240 million], Pokemon [$200 million], and Zelda [$94 million]. Over 534 million games have been sold between Mario, Pokemon, and Zelda. In 2008, Nintendo earned $1.28 million dollars for every employee and during Thanksgiving week in 2009, Nintendo sold 2.5 systems every second.


Nintendo is leading the gaming industry today, and as recognnizable as they are, there are numerous companies who lead various industries with individuals such as Shigeru. Although not an MBA grad, companies like Nintendo set a precedent in what MBA grads can learn outside of school. The enormous growth of this sector should interest any MBA candidate, as it demonstrates an innovative company to join in the future as well as the educational background needed for a position at Nintendo.


Check out below some other interesting facts about Nintendo:

The 10 Hotest Psycho Girlfriends On YouTube

Nothing puts an expiration date on a relationship quite like invading the personal space and property of a man and then destroying something he holds dear. Here are 10 videos of crazy girlfriends, who also happen to be pretty hot, destroying XBoxes, PS3s, Star Wars collections and more importantly, dreams. Thanks Ranker for this list.

The Original: Girlfriend Smashes Boyfriend's XBox

An oldie but a goodie (and the one that started the console smashing trend in 2010), this blonde had it with her boyfriend and in this oversaturated viral video from early 2010, she proceeds to destroy her boyfriend's XBox with a golf club. It was covered in news stories all over the internet and mainstream media, and garnered a new hatred for unsupportive girlfriends, as well as a wave of "alright, maybe we SHOULD spend more quality time together".

Her boyfriend later smashed her laptop in a retort video showing that not only was this one probably fake, but that they prank each other all the time. So before anyone says anything in the comments, they didn't make the list because they're both cool with the pranks and put them on net. This means that not only do they have a great relationship, but that the girl is absolutely, unbelievably cool.

Pissed Off Girlfriend Unloads His Stuff in NYC

This crazy/beautiful redhead loads up her SUV with a guy named Stephen's belongings and yells at him on a public street in New York. She unloads his most valuable belongings while smashing them in front of a small crowd.

Luckily, one of them chose to film it with their camera phone. As she's standing there, symbolically breaking all of this cheating bastard's belongings, she smashes his laptop, bends his golf clubs and almost smashes his flatscreen TV before one of the bystanders begs her not to. She doesn't, and the guy gets a free TV, which must have been one of the coolest moments of his life.

She goes on to yell at the guy and curse him for what he did in a public forum which goes to show that you should never EVER cheat on your girlfriend because, among other things, you never know what kind of monster you're going to create.

This is Scarier Than Paranormal Activity

I have absolutely no idea what happened, I have no idea why she's so angry or if the guy even deserved it, but dear lord is this scary. This girl goes absolutely insane at this guy and then comes at his car with a shovel. Her friends try and calm her down to no avail, but the whole time she sounds like she's been possessed by some evil force.

Surely, right before the effects of a world-wide running-zombie apocalypse, these are the first signs that lead to the aggression that would cause people to devour human flesh. Despite of what happened here, unless this guy killed her entire family after he banged her best friend, there is no reason for any human being to act this way. Absolutely insane.

Hot Sugar Momma Destroys PS3

This guy sounded pretty pissed. So as one of the guys who actually kind of seems like he has it coming on this list, this fed-up girlfriend decides, at 3AM, to teach her boyfriend a lesson. She angrily stomps downstairs and asks her boyfriend if he knows what time it is. He says no because he's too busy playing the really overrated and underwhelming Ghostbusters game that came out in 2009 and then he tells her to get him something to drink.

This is when shit truly hits the fan. She goes nuts on his new PS3 (this is when it first came out, too, so they were actually pretty rare at the time and extremely expensive), smashes it, and then the camera cuts out after he throws her off of the wreckage of his new purchase.

Girlfriend Deletes WOW Characters

While a World of Warcraft addict goes out to get a pack of cigarettes, his girlfriend expresses, on video, her disdain for his favorite pastime. She goes on to say that she's going to fix this, which at this point in the list is absolutely terrifying. This guy was supposed to be going on a raid that night, and much like cutting off the water supply in the city as soon as firefighters are needed to put out a fire at a 5-story orphanage, she makes sure that it's not possible for him to raid.

What does she do? She erases hundreds of hours of work by deleting ALL of his Warcraft characters. People have been killed for doing less. This is like throwing paint on a famous work of modern art, or knocking over an award winning sandcastle right before the judging.

Understandably the guy is pissed, but after the initial "I just lost my wallet" feeling he experiences, he flips a lid, and doesn't even suspect his girlfriend. He takes it out on his monitor. It's pretty brutal, and she's pretty insane. Why is she on this list? Well... she sounds kinda hot, but her "psycho" quality is off the freaking charts :)

Also, it's more probable than not that she's hot because most of the girls who pull this stuff on the internet, and are so comfortable talking to cameras (which is literally talking to a machine while you're alone) are attractive, used to a lot of attention because of that and fight back when they don't get it.

Mousetraps

In another mean-for-no-reason act of psychosis, a girlfriend decides to prank on her boyfriend just because. The prank? To make sure she never gets treated to an expensive dinner, and that he'll never wait until she finishes first, ever again.

This blonde girl sets up a series of mousetraps in a row and decides to make her boyfriend fall down on them, attacking his fingers, legs, chest, face and anywhere else a trap closed. The plan is actually kind of funny: to set the mousetraps up at the foot of his bed and then at 3 o'clock in the morning wake him up to tell him his car is getting towed. It happens, everything goes to plan, and the guy is in excruciating pain. Girls like this need to find better hobbies than terrorizing the one dude who will put up with their crap.

Call of Duty 4 or Girlfriend?

So basically, this insanely hot girl is sick of her boyfriend playing video games with his friends all the time. And much like everyone on this list, she doesn't talk to him about it, she doesn't leave him or try and consider why she IS with him, she decides to go insane. She tells the guy filming, who obviously wants to bang her, what is going on as this douche prepares to pull a horrible, expensive and heartless prank on a guy who probably doesn't all the way deserve it. She grabs a bat from her HUGE truck and walks in on her boyfriend and all his friends playing video games and smashes the XBox repeatedly with the bat while they're playing games, ostensibly losing them a crucial match that embarrassed them all.

The most annoying part is how hard the douchebag who's taping this is laughing. He's obviously too ugly for her to want to bang him, so he's trying to get in her good graces, so he supports completely dissing someone who he probably pretended to be "bros" with on camera. So to answer the question posed by this YouTube video "Call of Duty 4 or Girlfriend?", even though she's kind of a Hispanic Kristen Bell, the answer in this case is "Call of Duty 4 IS my girlfriend" :)

Girlfriend Doesn't Realize Boyfriend is on Vacation

So a guy gets the golden opportunity to backpack through Europe for 2 weeks. He tells his friends and family, even tells his girlfriend and calls her to say goodbye the night before he leaves. She ends up forgetting this ever happened because she's a bad listener. The guy has his phone turned off throughout his trip to Europe in order to avoid roaming charges, which is why he doesn't answer his phone. She ends up sending email, after email, after email, having completely forgotten that he was in Europe. The emails go from fun, to worried, to angry, to seething, to vengeful (she ends up sleeping with someone to get back at him for "cutting her off") to apologetic when his mom tells her where he was.

You really just need to watch this. It is golden. The reason this is both a hot AND psycho girlfriend entry is that the girl is obviously hot. She sends him emails about getting hit on constantly and even letting guys buy her a drink and as soon as they hand her the drink she says "you remind me of my boyfriend" which #1 an unattractive girl would not do because c'mon and #2 is a standard hot-girl move and a type of robbery that should be punishable by fine.

Girlfriend Destroys Star Wars Collection

Unfortunately the girl on the left, the blonde one, is pretty cute. So, she got a boyfriend somehow, despite being a talking, somehow-walking and breathing piece of crap. But that's not why she's on this list. She's on this list because this is the most psycho girlfriend on this list because she doesn't do it while laughing maniacally, like crazy girl up there, she does it while celebrating with her friends, calmly and happily.

So, the girl goes into a room with a Star Wars collection. A really awesome one. Like, vintage figures in well-lit glass cases good. And she's going to teach him a lesson. Why? BECAUSE HE WENT TO VEGAS. That's it. The guy decided to take a weekend in Vegas with his close buddies and just because he hasn't proposed to her, she decides to break his Star Wars figures which she calls "cheap and plastic Star Wars toys". Some things like that can be worth over $1500!

Girl Destroys Her Ex's Starcraft 2 Beta Key

So this girl basically does what was, at the time, the unthinkable. She didn't go out and bang his best friend or key his car or break anything he owned ... except his spirit. People have waited YEARS for Starcraft 2 to come out. Starcraft 2 was one of the most preciously anticipated games of the last 10 years and Beta access to an early version of the game was like having a Willy Wonka Golden Ticket or more.

So, when "Brad" received his Starcraft 2 Beta key in the mail, which would have allowed him access to the wonders of Starcraft 2, his email had been hacked by his ex-girlfriend. The hottie that he dumped for obvious, "I don't want my children to grow up deaf" reasons had not only hacked into his email, but deleted his Starcraft 2 Beta key email. On top of that, she printed it out before doing so just so she could video tape herself shredding it. The comic timing of where the video ends is priceless.

Scratching The Walls To Create Street Art

We want to share with you this inspiring and refreshing wall art by Alexandre Farto, better known as Vhils, but contrarly to other steet artists that put paint on the walls, he creates large scale portraits by scratching and chipping plasters out of walls of depleted buildings. His works give new life to decrepit buildings, while helping them retain a timely character at the same moment. Often his works leave chipped away plaster at their base, tipping off observers as to how the piece was created. Farto's work has made an impact far and wide, with examples in many European cities and New York.

9 Most Awesome Jobs Most Men Would Die For

Finding a job is hard. But one should never give up hope in landing that dream job. Even if you have a job, there's a good chance that if you're reading this at work, you aren't being productive. There are some jobs out there that are just so damn awesome that they are worth describing in further detail. Below is a list with the 9 most awesome jobs for men which some lucky guys landed making us pretty jealous.

Wine & Beer Taster

When you have a job like this, you have a warm, fuzzy feeling inside more often than most of us do. Every brewery needs a brew master, every winery needs a chief and these are the guys that ensure quality by making sure the products taste right. We all drink beer and wine probably on a regular basis but the main difference between us and these guys is that they get it for free, they get the best and they also get paid pretty damn well for drinking all day long. Cheers to that!


Medical Marijuana Tester

These are the guys that literally get a high from their jobs! Since marijuana dispensaries pop up in more and more states there was a need for someone who can test the quality of these places and their products. So, if you want to get high on a regular basis and maybe even get paid for it, this job might be perfect for you. But you have to be able to legally buy your own medical marijuana.


Food Critic & Travel Writer

Actually these could be two different jobs but they go really well together. Getting paid to eat is a great way to make a living and one that very few have the luxury of experiencing but getting paid to eat and also travel to different places around the world is amazing! Think of Anthony Bourdain. He basically gets paid to fly around the world sampling crazy food for his show No Reservations drinking, smoking, having fun and eating while getting paid the entire time.


Paradise Island Caretaker

Ben Southall beat out nearly 35,000 applicants from around the world for the dream assignment to swim, explore and relax on Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef while also writing a blog to promote the area. He got a six month contract to serve as caretaker of this tropical Australian island worth $111,000 and he has to live in a three bedroom villa complete with pool and so on. If there are any paradise islands which need a caretaker, I'm available for the job. Oh yeah!


Prostitute Quality Control

Yes, I know what you're thinking again. Why is the woman in the cop outfit not wearing a mask like the others? Jaime Rascone has a job that most men would die for to have. He is in charge of quality control of a brothel in Santiago, Chile. Any girl that is thinking about working for Madam Fiorella's brothel undergoes many tests. First, they do a typical job interview followed by a psychological evaluation. The girls then go to photoshoots. After this, girls are eliminated until six are remaining. This is where Jaime comes in. He has sex with the remaining six girls in one day, all the while taking notes on how they move, talk and act during sex. He then gives his notes to Madam Fiorella. Unfortunately, the job is so "stressful" that he can only do it once a month. Poor guy.


Waterslide Tester

Where do I sign up for such a job? Well, you'll have to ask Tommy Lynch. He is the official "Lifestyle Product Development Manager" for First Choice and his job requires him to travel the world testing the company's waterslides at their resorts. He tests for water quality, speed, height and just general ?fun-ness? of the slides. Lynch has been to resorts in Greece, Mexico, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Cyprus, Turkey and many other exotic places. The toughest part of his job? Going down the slides when it is cold out.


Spy for the Government

I don't really know if spy for the government is the right job I'm thinking of. Something like James Bond is doing in all his movies, being a secret agent or something like that. I'm a big Bond fan and I'm pretty sure we'd all love to be like him. This job would involve an insane paycheck, guns, gadgets, hideouts, secret missions and.. you can get any women you want. The only downer is your life is practically a secret but I'm sure you won't care about that ... right?


Victoria's Secret Photographer

Actually being a photographer for any fashion magazine would be great too. You'll meet hot models and celebrities on a daily basis, shoot beautiful faces, get free tickets to fashion shows and other celebrity events and so on. But being a Victoria's Secret photographer ... that's even better. You'll shoot those delightful angels wearing only sexy lingerie or bikinis in exotic locations, you'll have a crazy night life and of course, make shit load of money.


Top Gear Presenter

If you've never heard of Top Gear, you probably lived under a rock until now. It's one of the most popular TV shows in the world and probably the best and funniest TV show about cars. The show is hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May and all they do all week long is testing supercars, doing crazy challenges, hitting into each other and well ... saying a lot of shit words on public tv. They wear jeans to the office every day because the office is a demolished airfield and hangar and a regular Friday for a Top Gear presenter might involve racing a Bugatti Veyron against a jet for example.

9 Most Bizzare Jobs No Man Would Ever Want

If you belong in the majority, then you probably don't like going to work. Long hours, crap pay and boring work where you spend most of your time thinking about how this is a waste of your life. However, next time you're at work, just be glad you haven't got any of these jobs!

Road Kill Cleaner

Most people would cross the road to avoid roadkill we see on the road. Be it the gross sight or the unbearable rotting stench, lets face it ? roadkill is vulgar. So imagine now that not only did you job involve it, it WAS your job! Roadkill cleaners have to remove all sorts of roadkill from our roads not matter what stage of decomposition they are at. This job needs a severely strong stomach as there are guts n brain splint all over the road most of the times.


Sewer Cleaner

When you think of bad jobs, many people automatically think of jobs that involve human waste, and you can't really be more involved with human waste that a sewer cleaner. However sewer cleaners in the UK and US aren't as bad as some people think, since you get full protective gear and a very good wage. However things are much different in places like India, where sewer cleaners wear no protective clothing and have to sometimes wade or swim though human excrement, in nothing more than a pair of shorts! Uggh!


Chimney Sweeper

The unfortunate person partaking in this age old profession is sure to be covered in soot and ash by the end of the day. It a fact that around the turn of the twentieth century people use to use young children to chimney sweep because they were small enough to fit inside the tiny chimneys some structures used.


Animal Masturbator

There are many jobs which require the sperm of an animal, researchers and farmers are just a couple who require such a product. And the only way to obtain the sperm is of course to masturbate the animal and catch it in a pot. Whether its a pig, ram or bull its a job that not many people would want to do. When dealing with a bull there have been cases were people have been seriously injured during this procedure and even ended up in hospital.


Termite Controller

Hate ants, small little things crawling up your pants every time you set foot on the grass. Imagine dealing with termites every day of your life?!


Armpit Sniffer

When we go to the supermarket to buy deodorant, we are drawn in by all the colorful packaging and the nice scents. But, before those bottles hit the shelves, someone needs to make sure they actually do what they are meant to do ? mask body odor. This job comes down to the armpit sniffers who get to sniff smelly armpits all day long to ensure that their deodorant is effective. One would presume the pay rate is pretty good, which may be the only upside to this job.


Chicken Sexer

The job of the chicken sexer is to determine the $ex of baby chickens when they hatch, so that they can be sent off to the appropriate location for their future life, as a battery hen or dinner for four. This job requires a gentle hand, a good eye and the ability to drift off and forget that your whole working life is going to be spent looking at chicken's $ex organs.


Ball Diving

Have you ever wondered what happens to all the golf balls that go into the water on golf courses? Now you know, golf ball divers go in occasionally to retrieve them. It is a highly paid job and it can be extremely dangerous. The best part of the job is that when you are done you can put on your plus-fours and play a round of golf.


Vomit Collector

And the last but not the least! As we all know from experience, traveling on sideshow attractions can make us a little queasy. More often than not at least one person on the more exciting rides will have a little spew. Unfortunately, this produces quite a lot of vomit every day, and some very unlucky people get the job of cleaning it up. Next time you hate your job think of the poor vomit collector working at your local fair ground.

Weirdest CIA Experiments and Operations

Over the years, the American Central Intelligence Agency has gained a reputation for being the most far-reaching, sophisticated, and effective government intelligence agency on the planet. At the same time, the CIA has also become known for its incredible paranoia and propensity to undertake costly, sometimes illegal, and often downright absurd projects in the name of gaining an edge on the competition. From spy cats to psychic hippies, the following are ten of the weirdest spy programs the government has proposed and funded over the years.

Operation Gold (also known as Operation Stopwatch by the British)

There is nothing related to gold, even if a conversation recorded at the right time can be worth much more. In 1953, during the Cold War, CIA has worked extensively with MI6, the British Secret Intelligence Service to intercept phone calls made in Russia at the highest level.


The easiest way to do it was to act in East Berlin, which was occupied by the Russians. CIA dug a 450-metre (1,476-foot) tunnel to intersect a series of cable less than 47 cm (18") below a busy street. About half a million calls were recorded in 50,000 tapes in less than one year. The fun part is that a British compromised the whole project, providing information to the KGB when the CIA began working on the tunnel. Thus, the Russians had allowed ordinary military communications to take place through the cables to create the impression that they had no aggressive intention against West Berlin.


Project Pigeon

In the time of the World War II, pigeons were crucial to the U.S. CIA recruited B.F. Skinner, a well known researcher who was studying the way in which animals behave when they are punished or rewarded. These methods have effective results when it comes about training animals, so the Americans intended to train pigeons for use in a missile guidance system. Can you imagine that? Skinner has trained some pigeons in this regard and placed them inside missiles to record their flight path. The pigeons would peck at the screen if it was drifting off course. The results were disappointing and the whole project required $25,000.


Acoustic Kitty

If a cat comes near an important embassy, nobody would believe that it may be a potential master of espionage. It seems incredible, but the CIA has spent about 20 million dollars on this utopian project. The CIA got some cats, trained them and implanted microphones, antennae and batteries into their ears, tail and chest. Then the cats were sent near the Russian embassy. Unfortunately the first cat sent into the field was supposedly run over by a taxi.


Operation Northwoods

In the '60s, the CIA thought about how to remove Fidel Castro from power. The easiest was to persuade the other heads of state that the communists were about to commit acts of terrorism in the U.S. Basically, the CIA wanted the Americans to kill some important persons in the US and perform a series of violent terrorist actions and then somehow blame Cuba for all these events. Kennedy categorically rejected the plan. After his death, it was shown that the Northwoods existed on paper.


The Stargate Project

The $20 million Stargate Project was about a large number of psychic experiments and investigations undertaken by the U.S. government. There were tens of million of dollars invested in people who has extraordinary capabilities they could use to predict future events and read hidden documents. It's true that some people were having up to 15% more powerful senses than ordinary people. However, the CIA cancelled the project because of the poor results achieved. There are some rumors that the Russians still invest in similar experiments.


The Bay of Pigs Invasion

Despite the name of this project, we're not going to talk about pigs. In 1960, the CIA has received approval from the president to start a secret operation against Cuba, and especially against Fidel Castro. 1,300 Cubans were intensively trained and sent to the Bay of Pigs to attack Castro's troops. But Cuban intelligence was already aware of the planned invasion.


As a result of this project, 100 Americanized Cubans and 2,000 Cubans were killed in minutes. The bay was full of obstacles and the American troops had to surrender. A year later, Fidel Castro released the prisoners in exchange for $53 million in food and medicine for Cuban people.


Operation Midnight Climax

Central Intelligence Agency has experienced all sorts of projects over the years and has not hesitated to use innocent people. It seems incredible that these things have actually happened. Starting with 1960, the CIA has used hallucinogenic drugs like LSD to analyze their effects on unsuspecting citizens. For example, these substances were administrated in food and drinks and given to people who were closely observed by agents. CIA wanted to know exactly what happens. They were collecting data directly from witnesses, not only from agents.


Drugs could be easily used on politicians and other important people as long as their effects were well known. New York Times conducted the most detailed study on Midnight Climax and the Americans have been terrified by the fact that many of them were used by CIA for observing the evolution of syphilis, and more. But these are other stories...


Operation Mockingbird

Operation Mockingbird was the largest operation of propaganda and manipulation conducted by the CIA in the U.S. In the '50s, over 3,000 agents were infiltrated in the media to gain control of the free press. New York Times, Newsweek and Time Magazine were practically controlled by the CIA. Considering that the media s a huge power in a state, no one knew what was really going on. In the '60s, someone brought the program to light.


Project MK-ULTRA

It may seem weird to say that the CIA conducted experiments on the mind control and the creation of "zombies" able to perform certain tasks after being tortured and subjected to psychological and chemical stress for a long time. But it actually happened. Since the early '50s, the CIA launched the great project MK-ULTRA. Many people were recruited, receiving substances like LSD or amphetamine, electric shocks, brain washing or other incredible means of control.


The files are classified, but there is enough information in the specialized press. It is even said that MK-ULTRA is still conducted successfully. This is the only way in which the drugs labeled as 'the truth serum' can be tested.


Operation Mongoose

Have you thought that the Bay of Pigs invasion was the only attack against Castro? Well, then you must know that during the Cold War was remove the Cuban leader from power. The operation involved several attempts to assassinate Castro. Thus, the CIA tried to poison Castro's personal supply of cigars, spray a TV studio with hallucinogens, plant chemicals in his clothes and more.


Nothing had the expected results. In fact, the same happened in Europe with Hitler. Later, Cuba faced the missile crisis, Kennedy made an agreement with Russia and Fidel Castro has survived the threats.
