The Elements for iPad: The Elements Song (Boing Boing's hands-on review)

[Ldsguy01]

This is so awesome!!! Should I buy it?

[qmlong01]

"You know what.....Paper don't do that" LOL I laughed so hard when she said that!!!!!!!!!! Thats a cool app though..

[Guitar360Dude]

i have the book

[marcus2shae]

Lmao, Sheldon did this in The Big Bang Theory!!! HILARIOUS

[bleiepro]

I saw you on the today show today!

[TheLittleGoldFishie]

haha "ya know what... paper dont do that" :) u make me giggle

[Pyrotechnicolour]

"Paper don't do that."

That made me laugh so much, thank you for this.

[WorstRescueEver]

Is there any order to the elements in this song?

[Davidsehn]

Darmstadtium!

[nellyspageli]

best part was the lady's last comment

[boringrem]

What the fuck did i just watch?

[RageCookieX]

Actually I m quite familiar with all this elements but even as a scientist with knowing the most of the elements anyways (*cough*) I love this app cause it s really nice desgined and my nephew loves it too. The informations are just created in a way everybody understands em without having a large knowledge of chemistry and sience. Totally worth its price ihmo.

[dontcallmerp]

ITT people who know nothing about science are impressed by rotating polygons and a fun little song, then promptly convince themselves that they've learned something.

[MITSURU1027]

any1 have the ''lyrics'' ??? i like this song !!



[SuperHeroMan411]

Why would paper do that paper cost like $2 for a pack this cost a shit load idiot!

[SiberianHuskyF1]

this was sung in 1959? shows that modern day artists can't hold a candle to this guy...except for green day

[tellmewhatsahappenin]

oh i'm such an idiot, i never realized that this is "Modern Major General" lol

[KnowThatCode]

was that Phyllis from the Office at the end???

[DallyLama93]

1:32 paper can't do that ? oh yeah , well paper can become and airplane and glide , can your 500 $ iPad do that huh, HUH?

[ammNlml]

@DallyLama93 Yes, there is an app that can do that, and since its virtual you won't poke anyone's eye out.

[shadmanahmed123]

@DallyLama93 Well i can use my iPad as a Frisbee can your paper do that

[imsoautomatic13]

AWESOME!

[bigswallow2]

Nice job!!!!!!!!!

[itti1977]

Load a crap.

[1247Anna]

@Th3xCrucifier iPad neither! :) :D

[adeeply]

bazinga!

[3doog]

I prefer the symbols, you see it and know what the element is right away, with the picture, its harder to recognize the elements

[klintonhaw]

@skrbicdu oh, sorry for being rich =)

[LovelyLeafeon]

i know a 12 year old boy who can sing this and he memorized all the decimal places of pi

[lizzieloolah95]

@LovelyLeafeon impressive...so he knows 2.7 trillion decimal places does he? P.S I know to 56 :) xx

[LovelyLeafeon]

@lizzieloolah95 uhm i never said ALL of them but he knows a lot and spent 10 minutes telling me as much as he could i missed the end of my lunch break :'(

[TigerGuineaPig]

lol do all those metals look the same or is that just me

[mattyh5101]

Another fantastic apple app. Will keep my ADD at bay for 5 minutes

[Tongster2012]

all good.

[Maj2004]

@skrbicdu And it dont do that

[dezzy0]

You know what?  the ipad wont do much more than that.. it sings, it dances...awww, no it dont, it crashes

[cuquein1]

i prefer my motorola c115 than this shit... MOTOROLA C 115 ROCKS! (SEARCH ON GOOGLE IF U DONT KNOW IT)

[NCAD]

Its cool and all but what is the practical use of this?!

None.

Most likely only gonna act as a further distraction from actual learning.

[S300M]

@NCAD Agreed especially because that song states the elements in a random order, if it was by something like atomic number or maybe some periodic trend it might be useful.

[MyLifeInReality]

/watch?v=PnnQGlj_2-w

[tormitris]

Paper ""doesn't"" do that.

[DYLZ93]

You know what? POO!

[MrRazNaz]

She sounds like Phyllis from The Office.

[justinccaudle]

@MrRazNaz Thats what I thought

[ThatOneFatGirI]

@MrRazNaz

PHYLLIS FROM THE OFFICE. WHAT I WAS THINKING

[YaredCinema]

You know what?

You who would want paper to do that?

[YUPnNOPE]

@skrbicdu yeah well an ebook reader, novels, textbooks, a mobile gaming machine, amovie and music player all costs way more than 500. I don't see the competition with any better pricing either. Even the one's with a screen half its size. so suck on that.

[NitrogenSwiss]

is it me or she sounds like phileas from the office?

[jusk2ru]

@NitrogenSwiss It's just you.

[rockyscarlet]

"Paper don't do that" you go and tell that to Picasso, Rubens, Durer, Rembrandt...

[VictorMusne]

IT WAS FUN!! hahah :))

[Mantharious]

That video is pointless. If you could zoom in to the elements and check out everything about them now that would be helpful.

[siva18visu]

that was fast!!!!!!!!!!

[pblennerhassett]

where can i buy this song :P

[mrlabrat1781993]

The woman's voice is Australian!

[RuiAintTrippin]

you know what.. 8 books do that

[RuiAintTrippin]

you know what.. 8 books do that.

[werido55]

@skrbicdu it could if most of the tress on earth were cut down..............

[MaMahmod]

i love it

[simpsonstewie]

OMG OMG OMG IS THAT PHYLLIS FROM THE OFFICE????? =/

[TyranitarTubeNetwork]

@simpsonstewie

Phyllis is the road i live on!

[AndrewjosephFOX]

PAPUH DON'T DO DAT SHIT!!!

[ConnorMcDiddy]

Holy shit is that phyllis from the office?? lol

[TheSrwigginton]

@ConnorMcDiddy HAHAHAHAH I didn't notice it until your comment. Totally sounds like her.

[Tiberiusprinceana]

vizit my channel for video-test Iphone Ipod video camera, dvd player and blue -ray player. Test load maximum the device and hi spead image!

[MjrDario]

ARGH!!! so many words ending in ium!!!!

[Razvan4Eveer]

stop hating on paper lolz

[willwork4superpowazz]

:D never been more happy to see the periodic table of elements :DDDD

[cablescomputer]

oh, amazing for person who wants to enjoy travelling. It looks nice to take ipad with such device

[ktl789]

how is that an easter egg? theres a button for it right there. its not a secret.

[lacerta999]

Comparing paper to an iPad.. Only an iPad user =.=

[willwork4superpowazz]

@lacerta999 no sense of humor ¬¬

[blade8889]

what's the use of learning them like that?

[MrXorizon]

@skrbicdu You got that right !

[olesto]

@skrbicdu Eight books does.

[HauntingBull]

Sweet.. this is pure geek candy!

[yeokashiuno]

oh my gosh i wish i had that when i was in high school!!!! i bet it would be easier to memorize all the table of elements!!!! geeweez

[orangeguy1000]

There is nothing wrong with learning through songs or pictures! If it helps you remember it then it is awesome! I have almost a photographic memory and I do things like that all the time.

[ChillChatUniverse]

Thats amazing :)

I love the table of elements!

[jasonplus10]

they all look like rocks to me lol

[scientologyRfail]

@jasonplus10 1:04 doesnt look like a rock to me :/

[1KevinsFamousChili1]

@jasonplus10 they are all far from it my friend

[Baiyiy]

Kids aren't even able to learn from books anymore. They need songs and special "aids" like pictures or colour or they can't remember shit.

[12heyitsme34]

@Baiyiy Well this song was written in 1959... Also, how is using pictures and colors to remember things a bad thing?

[ConstituentGameplay]

@Baiyiy Ever heard of School House rock? I guess that wasn't music and pictures or color.... stop bein an old fart.

[tcobbs10]

@Baiyiy you realize that song was invented in 1959 right?

[Galt425]

@Baiyiy Tom Lehrer, _1959_... those "kids" 1- have a sense of humor and 2- are in their 70's. Loosen up a little ;)

[qwertyoctopus]

@Baiyiy Wow, what a cynical way to look at things. Is fun not allowed where you live?

[goodmusicrox]

@Baiyiy people that choose to remember information via different methods other than from paper are at least open to the idea that there isn't one solid way of learning and taking in information. Science is the study of how everything works including how the human brain takes in information. So if you are a scientist or appreciate it enough to watch this, stop being a penis and respect the fact that not every one uses the same technique as you to take in information and its a good thing too.

[anisuthideyakoindu]

@KamrulKiron ok hastu Skype?

[silvermanfamily13]

I cant even watch on my iPad it says video format not supported FAIL

[larryjohnny]

I'm waiting for Ipad to be made in the USA, I hate support communist dirt bags in CHINA ! have you seen how they treat falun gong members ? What a bunch of assholes, we should boycott china completely ! ONLY buy stuff made in USA !

[azndavid3237]

@larryjohnny im pretty sure that would destroy the U.S. economy

[larryjohnny]

@azndavid3237 please explain ? US economy was strong without China ! It's only since the last 28 years that caused all the problems we have now ! I mean from Bush to Bush, you see Reagan (or Bush, Reagan was his puppet) basically sold us out ! Great business men like Dale Carnegie, Arnold Beckman, and others valued the USA more than just profit, it was profit in their minds to see the USA become a super power, today's businessmen and republicant's are too greedy and are not patriotic!

[klintonhaw]

@skrbicdu dont be such a loser (not owning an ipad)

[johnclavis]

I love Tom Lehrer, and I will stick with my Android phone, thanks...

[VCat2006]

@mrbongos123 I can: Paper reads better on hot summer days, but takes up more space and doesn't do sound, animation, calculation, and networking.

[VCat2006]

@skrbicdu Have you been to college yet?

[icekat83]

I'd get the ipad just for that. LOL. Is it an easter egg or a feature?

[felixthemaster1]

its just a video

[abhiv]

hah gilbert and sullivan rock

[fireroy117]

Hey everyone I memorized this song by myself so check out my channel cuz i also sung it!

[HAHAushinka]

I HATE that song -____-

[larryjohnny]

@HAHAushinka I agree, pretty lame song, maybe a great idea but it didn't turn out to be very entertaining ! Especially when some hack lame company like Apple uses it to sell us this stupid communist made product, we should boycott all foreign made products, or tax the fuck out of them when they are imported to promote the USA ! damn these companies who sold us out for global investors to make profits, why should I CARE !

[failbrownie]

you know what it blend

[dragonclam1]

Go Vanadium motherfucker!

[crazypianolady]

@skrbicdu Haha true. I can't see what the fuss is about these things...I prefer my laptop thanks.

[MrTitobond007]

[Ajboi89]

Einsteinium.

[sukrat69]

Nice, but this can run on an PC 486 33 Mhz, you don't need an IPod for this... God is piece of hardware is totally wasted

[ultimatenerd22]

[XxxxSkaterBoiXxxx]

[templepriest]

[ChevySevenAteSeven]

[DorkifiedAndLovely]

[shaqinfill]

[WilliamSkannerup]

[tuby401]

[Tjorvia]

@tuby401 499 // 599 // 699 for the 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB wi-fi versions

[tuby401]

@Tjorvia thanx wish i had that kind of money check out my channel anyway

[Alan8348]

awesome quote, "paper don't do that".

[mrkiky]

"paper don't do that" .... so this is a competitive product against paper?

[mrkiky]

that's actually not that clever because most of them end with "-uim" ..doesn't take a rhyme master....

[Freefallfelixrulz]

@mrkiky you do it to a different tune and post it then

[Bulldog22031]

But can it us anything with usb, take a picture, or multi-task?

[perrythebari]

@Bulldog22031

Multitask, yes. In September.

[boyman57]

O O O

[Davek1013]

nope paper dont do that

[MASEK360]

strontium, stront means shit in dutch lol

[AlecProductions]

"you know what? paper don't do that" xD

[robmusicproduction]

Completely wonderfullium. ;)

[GrandTheftAuto4Films]

HA WIN!

[Pkr]

I just hope it works better than the iPod, AppleTv and IPhone. None of these items sync any more after an iTunes upgrade... If you check the "Discussion" on the Apple site you'll see that thousands of people are trying to get this fixed but Apple seems unaware....

[MissPink789]

i ordered it and i cant wait to get mine and all you haters can kiss my ass and be very fuckin jelous!!! LMAO!!

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 For iPad? Are you kidding us? :D This device is ridiculous. "Paper don't do that." o_O Me to that: *clap clap* *clicks related video and there's the same song and same fucking thing*

[MissPink789]

@ImTooSecretive ur just jelous!!! LMAO

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 Hey.. I can buy 10 iPads if I'd want. I guess I'm not jealous. ;)

[MissPink789]

@ImTooSecretive yeah right, u wish u cud buy 10 iPads...if u cud you would buy at least one...jealous mofo! LOLOL

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 I can buy atleast 10 with my own money. And with a little help from my parents, some more. I hate books and reading books. So that kind of devices don't intrest me.. And by the way. Grow up. :P

[MissPink789]

@ImTooSecretive YEAH RIGHT! ur such a damn liar...i dont know anyone that would choose a pen and paper over an iPad....and iPad is a giant iTouch...u have one? they are AWESOME! and to get a giant sized one is 100x awesomer!! so u grow up dodo

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 Why would I choose paper/iPad over computer you dumbass..? :/

[MissPink789]

@ImTooSecretive are you slow? do u even know what an iPad is? i dont think u do....google it before u start talking shit, by the time u finish READING on ur computer...u will want one

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 HP slate, thanks. Seems over 10 times better and useful.. Considering to this video. :)

[MissPink789]

@ImTooSecretive hummm HP slate huh....might get me one of those too! and then u will be twice as jelous LOL

[ImTooSecretive]

@MissPink789 You'r seriosly some psycho lol. :D "twice as jealous" you say? For what? Haven't I yet made it clear that I think iPad is a piece of shit which should have never been released. It's complete waste and made Apple seem even more shitty company. They should move forward instead of making the same shit over and over again. And I can never be jealous for you and your geeky gadgets as I can buy all of them myself. You'r just trolling. lol
