Checking Out Black Eyed Peas Pics
Wow, more great shots from @oriata! First, she got some snaps at the No Doubt concert, and now she powershot-ed the Black Eyed Peas at the packed Bayfest.
Here’s Fergie.
And what’s with those “finger gloves?”

Ready to (Re)Think Hawaii?
In November, an international group of entrepreneurs and investors will convene in Hawaii in order to rethink tech, business, and sustainability. Dubbed (RE)THINK HAWAII, this cross section of skills and interests will feature “panels, lunches, excursions, dinners, cocktails and aloha style exchange of ideas and relationship building in Hawaii.”
And yes, while an international gathering, the event organizers include Hawaii’s very own Neenz, Melanie, Bruce, and Yaling. Read about all the organizers involved.
Attendance to this event is limited to 200 participants, and you must be invited to attend. If you’re interested and can contribute to this nexus, you can request an invitation.
Details are still forthcoming, so follow rethinkhawaii on Twitter to keep up with the latest RE(THINK) HAWAII news.

Don’t Jump the Shark, Glee!
After showing a clip of Push It, Glee has released yet another teaser from the upcoming season. This time, Mr. Schuester, goes Kanye with Gold Digger.
Behind the Scenes of "Gold Digger"!
Again, I’m hoping the series doesn’t spill all its greatness by jumping the shark with teasers before the series kicks off in September.
Behind the Scenes Video of Glee
Amazon has two free behind the scenes clips from Glee to stoke the cinders of the inferno that will be Gleeful.
Watch the casting session to find people that can sing, dance, and act and hear from Brad Falchuk, co-creator and executive producer of Flee.
Glee Remixing Push It
There was mention that the cast of Glee was going to do their version of the classic rap Push It. Here’s a sneak peek of what Cheer Coach, Sue Sylvester, calls “the most offensive thing I’ve seen in 20 years of teaching.”
Teaser from the Series Premiere airing WED 9/9 @ 9/8c, FOX!
Sorry, myspace.com access required to watch the vid. I’m hoping the series doesn’t jump the shark and can sustain the hilarity for the long haul (or at least make it to Hawaii for a hopeful taping). 😉
Bytemarks’ Hawaii Top Social Media Geeks Represented
Taking a look at Bytemarks’ Top Social Media Geeks of Hawaii, you’ll see quite a few represented in the US Navy Distinguished Visitor embark program. This program allows citizens to come aboard Naval air craft carriers to experience a day at sea and then share their experiences with others. What better way to accomplish this goal by enlisting the aid of social media geeks!
Here’s the list of social media geeks with Navy DV participants in bold:

Not bad, 6 out of 20 (so far).
Goodies from Nene Goose Bakery
If you’re ever in Kailua, you should try out Nene Goose Bakery. They have great tasting pastries and treats (but do run out quickly).
Their mochi an pan is as close to their signature creation as can be. Though costly, you gotta try it at least once.
Kids love identifying and eating the choco animals.
Personally, I always get a chocolate donut if they haven’t run out. I swear these are the best on the island. To begin with, the donut itself is soft, and the quality of the chocolate is rich. And they don’t skimp on the chocolate coating. The chocolate is slathered on, thankfully overrunning the edges giving you more to enjoy.
No Gleek Love for the 808
Wasn’t expecting a stop by the cast of Glee to Hawaii’s Hot Topics, but I had to check. There is no Glee-k love for the 808 state.
That’s okay, but to make up for this oversight, how about filming episodes of Glee here? I’m sure Hawaii will make a great backdrop for the finals of a musical competition or something. Think about it, Glee producers. 😉
From the Taping of Glee
The gleeful call went out to all Glee-ks to attend the taping of the last episode of the inaugural season of the television series, Glee. Luckily, pulpy reader and contributor @jessicashig was invited to attend today’s taping, and here’s her story.
Warning. Minor spoilers ahead.
