This gets filed under fun and useless. If you head on over to ASCIImeo and search for any Vimeo video and play it you will be treated to the video transformed into ASCII characters.
Here’s a screenshot of one I watched.
Even has a cool ASCII status bar.
Neat, huh? Pointless? Yeah I suppose. But neat…right?! 🙂
Now go waste an hour looking at some ASCII videos..go…go now.
Ran across this on Gizmodo so credit goes there for finding it.
Boy, this would have made it much less painstaking for them to do…this thing here:

Oh wow wow wow… Asciimation Wars…..fabulous! I can’t begin to imagine the work that went into that.
And that Simon Jansen guy, what a brain he has. I spent some time traipsing through his pages and he is awesome! I am always impressed with those who make STUFF. I mean building a MAME console inside a TARDIS?? Who even has a TARDIS? An awesome person that’s who.
If he has one of those old-school police boxes and he’s turned it into an arcade game emulator, I’m impressed.
If, however, he has a TARDIS…I think he’s seriously underusing its potential.
I wish my little Toyota Tercel were bigger on the inside than the outside!
…a CARDIS.
A CARDIS..ha! Those would be right popular on the market I dare say.
Good point about underutilization on the TARDIS. Speaking of which there is a new Doctor now. Not sure about that one yet. I don’t transition well. Change is so hard.
Yeah, but compared to how hard it is on him, we get off easy!
I loved Eccleston in the role. Tennant, I’m torn on. This new guy I have no idea and no expectation either way. I hope he can step up and pull it off.
Problem is though, I think the Doctor’s running out of regenerations by now. They’re burning through them far too quickly! I believe he’s on #11. Only 2 more incarnations left!
My freaking time machine s broken. Took me DAYS to respond to this. Gotta get that thing fixed.
I had a bit of struggle settling into Tennant, but then at some point …click…I did. It started to feel right. With the new guy, I will have that same struggle. But hopefully it too will click.
Eccleston was a tough act to follow. Dark, tortured, and different. I loved him in the role.
Okay just 2 more? Now I am worried. I will be unreasonably sad when it is over.
Well, Baker was in it for years and years. (what a cool voice that guy has!) Who knows, maybe this new guy will catch fire and end up redefining the role, yet again. They can’t keep treating the lead role like a guest star!
That show is gold.
Yup, pure gold 🙂
