Neatorama

The internet has made the world a smaller place. We can communicate with people all over the world, make friends with similar interests, and even find long-distance love. Another use for the internet is creative collaboration, of which Neatorama is an example, with contributors from all over. ClipBandits is a musical group consisting of four guys (three are featured in this video) who have never met, but who write and perform music together.
The World's First Web Band have found each other on YouTube. They only know each others' YouTube IDs and have never met. This video was created by syncing ClipBandits' YouTube video clips. Turns out, the ClipBandits live in Los Angeles CA, New York City and Austin Texas.

You can vote for ClipBandits and/or other bands at the YouTube Underground Contest through November 17th. http://www.youtube.com/contest/youtubeunderground?v=oUKaeDwKP2A&from=watch (via Yesbutnobutyes)

Have you ever been to a party where the guests eventually threw the furniture into the pool? This furniture is made for that sort of thing. Aquapub is an â€œamphibious unsinkable tableâ€ with six seats attached. It keeps users at a semi-submerged level while they can enjoy refreshments or a game of cards. Plus itâ€™s constructed from recycled materials. Link

In an age where you can enjoy deep-fried Twinkies, pickles, ice cream, and even Coke, deep-fried pizza shouldnâ€™t seem all that strange. The Atlantic ChipShop in New York shows how its done. The word is that its pretty good. http://www.sliceny.com/archives/2006/10/deepfried_pizza_3.php -via Grow-A-Brain

A homeowner in Los Angeles, who is an aircraft mechanic in training, set up a plane crash as a Halloween decoration! He used parts from a real Gulfstream jet. Neighbors were taken aback, police were curious, and traffic is now heavy in the neighborhood because so many want to see it. Link -via Arbroath

Scary Terry makes Halloween and haunted house props. This one is called Skelevision. The guest would enter a hallway and see themselves in a mirror at the end of the hall. All of a sudden, the lights would go out, spooky sound effects would play and then a skeleton would appear where they previously saw themselves in the mirror. The skeleton would be frantically waving its arms. After a few seconds, the skeleton would disappear and the guest would once again see themselves in the mirror.
Complete instructions included. You'll also find plans for the Kitchen Sink Coffin, the Grave Stomper, and various moving body parts. Link
