Nate Maggio, on the internet!

I went to Costa Rica for a couple weeks. Took my camera and got a few NEATO shots. Whenever I decide to make a real NateMaggio.com again, I will post all the goodies.

And since I know you Tumblr kids love these, a GIF from my trip:

ITS MY BEST OF 2011 LIST!!!

Oh, man— this list is going to change the world.

The list is bookended by Bon Iver, which makes sense because I bet the number of days in 2011 I listened to Bon Iver outnumbered the days I didn’t. (The final song has my favorite lyrics of the year hidden in it.) I cut a lot of great songs to hit the 20 mark. (which is retarded because I made the mark up myself, I could have made it 25, or 40)  A lot of people/blogs/shit-faces are saying 2011 wasn’t as great as 2010 in music. And I guess, I agree. There weren’t as many stand out albums that were mind blowing; but looking back at the list I am happy. Lets get to it:

My list. Listen and download if you wanna.

When I lived in SF with Hills we had a polaroid by the door. Anyone that visited (friends/family/strangers) got their picture on the wall. I had the pictures just sitting in a drawer and I finally scanned them. The only logical next step is to GIF them.

The Tom Hanks Magazine

Scroll through for a sampling of Hanks Aficionado: the only magazine that’s all Hanks, all the time.

I must subscribe.

Wonder if I can get this at my local Fox Books?

Dan and I at the Webbys, getting photobombed by Brooke Shields. Classic Brooke. (Update: Video.)

Also, Darryl makes the internet better with every GIF he makes:

Beyonce hates Jay Z’s boner. SASHA FIERCE, ENGAGE!

(moar made my dan)

Remember that time I joked about GPOYW and then actually did a GPOYW? That was cool.

Internet meetup! Nick! Lindsey! Greg! Me! Dan!

Despite a broad comedy label, Adam McKay has made his interest in politics well known. Now he’s launching a site dedicated to a new rise in protest songs: Public Domain Protest Song. 

This site is for protest music that is free all to download, cover, mix, mash up and most of all, play loudly. We don’t need to say “Power to the People!” cause we already got it. We just need to wake up and use it.

I helped with this bad boy. McKay is legit.

I have been trying to step my twitter game up and I have been getting more followers. Its been fun. I also noticed that some of my LOLz are popping up in other places. I am NOT saying that they have been stolen at all. Its just cool that my joke writing is possibly on par with The Onion or Community.

So what I am saying is, you might wanna follow me on twitter… @NateMaggio.

P.S. For all you tumblr folk, sorry it takes up so much dashboard space.

Looks like we got a new wedding to live-blog…

Some people send out cute pictures as a save the date. Scottie Holt sends a hand screen printed poster.

Law schools have prom. Which is amazing. And this is how it ended for me.

Hot track.

Bushwick looking out to Manhattan.

Just became an editor at Neighborhoodr Bushwick. First post out the gate is a picture I took off my roof. Hoping to post more event type stuff in the future.

Leaving now for The Great Walk. The 16 mile Manhattan tip to tip walk. Lots of facts, side tours, and a few pretzels along the way I am sure.

Commemorative poster? Check.

Today’s experiment: Get RT’d by a top 100 account (@funnyordie) with accusations about God and see how many people support or hate you for it. 

UPDATE: This has been exciting: got on the FavStar top 100 list and got ~150 new followers. Also the comments have been about 85% positive— not surprising coming from Funny Or Die. Even the 15% that were negative were very polite and un-troll like.
