| Don't Have A Halloween Party To Go To Tonight? Watch Heidi Klum's Live. | Top |
| In case you didn’t yet realize it, tonight is Halloween. And if you didn’t yet realize it, maybe you don’t have plans yet. If not, as usual, the Internet comes to your rescue. If you’re stuck at home tonight for whatever reason, you’ll be able to load up Facebook and watch Heidi Klum’s Halloween party , streaming live. Sure, it’s not as good as being there, but it beats doing nothing. And it’s being done with the help of Modelinia , a site devoted to capturing the lives of super models. Enticed yet? You can find the live stream on Modelinia’s Facebook page starting at 9 PM PT tonight. The streaming itself is being handled by Livestream , who will run it through 11:30 PM, we’re told. Klum’s Facebook fan page along with Modelinia’s page have nearly 700,000 fans, so if you do watch this, you definitely won’t be alone. And there’s a chat widget running next to the stream to talk with others watching it. Modelinia’s goal with this wasn’t solely to stream beautiful people at parties, they also ran a costume contest with Klum to allow the best costume designers to win tickets to the actual event. Modelinia’s founder and CEO is Desiree Gruber, a producer to the Emmy-winning show Project Runway . I’ll go ahead and embed the live stream of Klum’s party here as well. Don’t say we never give you anything. Crunch Network : MobileCrunch Mobile Gadgets and Applications, Delivered Daily. | |
| Meta: Bing Jingle Guy Writes Song For Students Who Sang Bing Jingle | Top |
| Our favorite jingle guy is at it again. Jonathan Mann, who TechCrunch readers will best know as the guy behind the awful Bing jingle , has released another new video (as he does every day), this time to serenade the children of Keith Valley Middle School who recently performed his Bing jingle . “ It’s kind of creepy ,” Mann admitted at the time, but he was happy to see his work live on, so he came up with this gem. But this latest video almost had a very different tone. “ I thought about writing them an anti-corporate anthem, something they could raise their tiny, furious fists to, but ultimately decided on this, ” Mann tells us. Too bad, because that would be been awesome. It could have been “ Another Brick In The Wall [Part 2] ” for the 21st Century. Representatives for Bing also wrote us after our “torture” post to point out the backstory about the students singing the Bing jingle. Apparently, they decided to do it on their own — or rather, their teachers decided to make them do it. Still, it’s very creepy. And as a number of readers pointed out, a little bit too much like Jesus Camp (trailer below Mann’s new video and the students singing his song).
