<p>Don&#8217;t worry though, if you don&#8217;t know the name then I&#8217;m positive you know his works. As a matter of fact you have probably hummed a song that he wrote. You see John Williams is a pretty famous composure and has written the <a target="_blank" class="zem_slink" title="Film score" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_score">film scores</a> for some big blockbuster movies including Star Wars.   Well, while cruising through the Twitterverse today I clicked on a link that @CharlieCurve posted that took me over to YouTube. Low and behold there was this incredible tribute.  The song was written by a comedy troupe called Moosebutters, and this John Williams fan recorded the comedy trouble and made this cool video,<a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lk5_OSsawz4"> &#8220;Star Wars&#8221; &#8211; an a cappella tribute to John Williams</a>.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Found a really cool website about geeky and nerdy stuff. Might be the perfect companion to dizzygeek.com]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>OMG. Twitter brought me together with NerdAbout.com from the Science Channel.</h1>
<p><img title="nerdabout-robotquiz" src="http://dizzygeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/nerdabout-robotquiz-300x238.jpg" mce_src="http://dizzygeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/nerdabout-robotquiz-300x238.jpg" alt="NerdAbout.com Robot Quiz" align="right" width="200" height="138">And I am completely stoked about it. It looks like there are three people from three major US cities, New York, Austin and Portland, who are going to be blogging on <a target="_blank" href="http://science.discovery.com/nerdabout/index.html" mce_href="http://science.discovery.com/nerdabout/index.html">NerdAbout.com</a> about anything geeky. Their tag line on the site says, &#8220;Nerd News. Arts, Events &amp; Community. Thinking locally, geek globally.&#8221; Do you see that? Geek globally. I believe my little dizzy geek self just developed a website crush.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t even get me started about the ninja action in flash.</p>
<p>From what I can see right now there isn&#8217;t a ton of content or information on the site, but they do have a Twitter account that I started to follow: <a target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/nerdabout" mce_href="http://twitter.com/nerdabout">http://twitter.com/nerdabout</a></p>
<p>And the image above shows the beginning of a <a target="_blank" href="http://science.discovery.com/quizzes/robots/robots.html" mce_href="http://science.discovery.com/quizzes/robots/robots.html">Robot Quiz</a> that they have on their site too. Did you know that the &#8220;Wakamaru&#8221; robot was created in Japan by the Mitsubishi company for companionship? I sure as heck didn&#8217;t know that. Seems a little bit odd to me, but whatever floats your boat. It did say though that it hasn&#8217;t been for sale since 2005.</p>
<p>Overall NerdAbout.com looks like it will be something I check back in on. I really do wish that they had some widgets though that you could grab. Maybe I will shoot them an email or a comment and let them know. Because that would be a great gadget to include in the sidebar of the Random category over here on DizzyGeek.</p>
