Yeah, we got a thing for time-lapse videos. This one is pretty great, too, featuring scenes from several cities but our town figures prominently in it so ... enjoy! more ›

Following in the theme of today's time-lapse of Michigan Ave., how about another time-lapse but this one of Tokyo? more ›

The lamenting of tourists on a bridge earlier today reminded us of why people come to Chicago in the first place. And this time-lapse video is a pretty good visual representation. more ›

Even as Chicago deals with the newest round of snow, we're captivated by this short time-lapse video of snow falling last week in the D.C. area. As the friend who shared this with us said, "It's like watching a marshmallow expand." more ›

There's a collective wearing of grurmpy pants in the office today. We're blaming the holiday hangover and the weather. A few of us, though, perked up a bit at this cool time-lapse video that captures the passing of a year in 90 seconds. You can check out more on the video and the story behind it - as well as a few other videos - here. [via] more ›

We're suckers for time lapse stuff, sure, but it's really hard to pass up this one, a terrific trip through our beautiful city. This brightened up our gloomy day and we hope it does the same for you. more ›

We've posted something similar to this in the past and always get a kick out of them. Follow one traveler from Denver all the way to Singapore and then back in just 5 minutes. Bonus: keep your eyes peeled for the O'Hare cameo. more ›

Behold, the coolest, most mesmerizing 110 seconds of your day (well, since this). more ›

Earlier this week, Bruno Pieroni shot us an email about a great time lapse video he had made and, indeed, it's pretty spectacular. The Reader's Whet Moser got inspired and posted several other time lapse videos of our beautiful city that are definitely worth checking out. more ›

Check out this fantastic time-lapse of a night-time flight from Flickr user Ettubrute. It's the perfect calming video for us after a long day of Blago-related stuff. [via kottke] more ›

Chicagoist is totally obsessed with the demolition of the Sun-Times building. There's just something about walking past it everyday and gradually seeing an entire huge building start to come down before our very eyes. Which is why our newest non-sexual crushes are on a couple guys (who happen to work in a great big black building designed by Mies van der Rohe) who have been updating us with some really great photos of the demolition progress. We're so envious of the view they have of the destruction. Actually, they'll probably have a really great view of the lake after the destruction and before The Donald's tower gets built. more ›
