Hey Girl: Chrome Extenstion Turns Every Image Online Into Ryan Gosling Photo

Because regular web searches aren’t sexy enough, a new extension of Google’s web browser Chrome turns every single image on the web into a Ryan Gosling photo. The plugin’s name? Hey Girl. Hey Girl Extension Equals Ryan Gosling Photos The tool changes LITERALLY every image on any page to Ryan Gosling photos . Your mom’s weird ass Facebook pics? Depressing CNN news dispatches? Miley Cyrus Twerking ? Gosling. Katherine Champagne, a Brooklyn-based web developer, created the oh-so handsome Chrome extension while studying at Dev Bootcamp Chicago. “We had a challenge that involved manipulating page elements live using Javascript,” she told Mashable , adding that it initially featured a different hunk. “My programming pair and I were having fun changing all of his Dev Bootcamp profile information to make him appear as if he were Channing Tatum .” “My teacher threw down the gauntlet: make this a bookmarklet! So I changed the concept from Channing Tatum to Ryan Gosling, and Hey Girl was born.” Hey girl … you did a heck of a job on that concept.

Here’s a Roundup of The Nutcracker in 3-D Reviews That Mention the Holocaust

Expectations for The Nutcracker in 3-D weren’t terribly high to begin with. The film had been shelved for two years, given a reportedly awful 3-D conversion and it’s opening against Disney’s much-hyped Tangled . But according to the first reviews, it’s much worse than all of that. Yes, we’re talking about a misguided Holocaust allegory that apparently makes the prison camp in Toy Story 3 look like Neverland. Let’s take a look at some of the most scathing, Nazi-themed reactions to the film, which is currently ranking at 0% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Microsoft: Xbox 360 Isn’t Getting A Web Browser

Having access to Facebook and Twitter on Xbox Live are adaptations of commonplace Internet use for console users, but it’s not the true Internet. The web browsing experience on PlayStation 3 isn’t what one would call “enjoyable” or “ideal,” but it does provide access to a much larger experience. Despite that, Microsoft has told Edge a web browser isn’t on the radar for Xbox 360’s future. “We really believe that the web browsing experience on TV is a poor one,” said Microsoft’s Xbox group product manager Aaron Greenberg, “and the real magic is to take those web experiences and optimise them for the living room. That’s what we did with Netflix. So, sure, you can go on the PS3 and go to Facebook and and try to navigate, but it’s an absolute nightmare.” Neither Microsoft nor Sony’s solution allows me to completely disconnect from my phone of laptop when either console’s turned on. Considering Sony hasn’t updated PS3’s web browser in ages, however, that experience doesn’t seem to be interesting the company anymore. If one of them can give me native YouTube and Hulu experiences in the future (E3 would be convenient), we’ll be onto something. [image credit: firing squad ] Source: Edge Have something to share?
