The other day, I glanced at my Pandora, and it hit me that the singer Jason Derulo was actually Jay Sean Derulo. (If you don’t know who I’m talking about, good for you.) I was amazed – how had I not realized this before?! Because it’s not true. They’re actually two different people, but at least in looking it up, I stumbled upon this gem of a mash-up. [YouTube]

I always enjoy doing Linked Up because it gives me a chance to reflect on how I spend my free time on the internet. Apparently this week, I was a bit celebrity-obsessed.

If you haven’t already noticed, we now have a TWEET button. Look down. To the left. See it? Yeah. It’s awesome. Use it well.
Here are some other items I obsessed over this week.
In Mexico City, that plastic bag could get you a $90,000 fine, jail time. [BBC]
They call it the Snazzy Napper, but it’s more like the Snazzy You’re-about-to-have-your-purse-stolen-while-looking-ridiculous-er. [Urlesque]
Feel estranged from your friends who use Twitter? [GeekandPoke]
See kids? Sophomore Chemistry wasn’t a total waste of time. [FailBlog]
This song would be OK, but it features Rivers Cuomo, so that makes it awesome. [YouTube]
It’s almost time for school, so let’s make sure we all know how to write absurd, incoherent academic sentences. [UChicago]

We only have one week left in August, people. ONE WEEK! Oh, the agony…
Here are some things that don’t make me sad.
Marcel the Shell with Shoes On. It might be the most delightful video I’ve ever seen. [Vimeo]
Dinner Party Download needs your help! Because “it’s not really public radio if you don’t beg your listeners for money.” [APM]
Ah, home… This Day in History: Record Setting Tow-Truck Parade Held in Washington State [History Channel]
I’m sure this was staged, but it is delightful. [YouTube]
