    So, who here caught the Live Earth concerts that took place in all continents this weekend? Hundreds of different performers, all live and raising awareness of the climate crisis. Hosted by MSN:

    Live Earth on MSN: The Concerts For A Climate In Crisis

    I caught quite a bit of it today, and skipped around to different performers in the UK, Australia, Brazil, China, and the U.S.

    I didn't follow it really. In fact I didn't even know it was in lots of different countries like that. Was it good?

    Sure was. On the web, you had best results in Internet Explorer. There were icons you could click for each country and a menu on who was playing and who was coming up next. In between performances, they had intermissions that presented ways to save and conserve energy. And sometimes guest speakers or speeches by performers and other activists.

    This! was my favorite speech.

    You can still catch highlights from the show at the link.

    It is a pretty good speech. I found this movie trailer while I was looking for more about Robert Kennedy and uploaded it to my video site:

    First World Movie Trailer - My Rewind Video Sharing Network

    I never heard of it before, wouldn't mind watching it as it looks a bit like some of my dreams, possibly with hints of some of yours too. :)

    P.S. I just noticed something really weird on the video site, someone else uploaded the Transformers trailer and the thumbnail image looks nearly the same only reversed, in more ways than one. The angle of the shot is mirrored and one picture sees the Moon with the Earth in the distance, while the the other is a close up of the Earth with possibly the Moon glowing off shot.

    You got that right! That's a must see on my list too.
