Don’t Have a Yule Log This Christmas? Fire Up Your Laptop With This Digital One
If you don’t have a fireplace, don’t want to deal with the mess or live in a climate where adding more heat isn’t welcome, but you still want to take part in the Christmas tradition of burning a Yule log, it’s as easy as flipping open your laptop.
Nigel Upchurch has created a digitized fire for you and posted it online.
The crackling noise is more modern and not exactly realistic, but it fits with the cube-shaped logs and flames.

“[P]ut it on your widescreen while eating turkey,” Upchurch suggests of the video he calls “Christmas Warmer.”
Check it out:
There are also a slew of Yule log videos that are a little more traditional on YouTube.

Posted on December 26, 2012 at 8:26amHurray for the Yule Log! I DVR about 7 hours of this every year and it drives my husband nuts! I usually play it while dusting and doing housework. Hey, it’s the best program out there besides channel 212.

Posted on December 25, 2012 at 11:53amWow that’s a cheesy version of a warm fire. I’m still wishing for a digital fly swatter to combat the infestation of gad-flies (a.k.a. trolls) we have to tolerate from time to time.
