  • Microsoft Xbox 1080p – Possibly

    Just recently, Microsoft went on record that their HD-DVD drive will also support 1080p. And according to their HD DVD Explained, “This new accessory will connect to the Xbox 360 console with a USB cable”. Did anyone at Microsoft bother to do the math on the amount of bandwith needed to transmit 1080p?: 1080i uncompressed: […]

  • Track Your Conversations with Cocomment

    This new update allows you to be able to track any comments you write anywhere, no matter if the blog uses cocomment or not.  This is all over the news, but I didn’t understand how this was made possible.  What I found was that after you signup, you install a firefox extension: Once you install […]

  • Only Idiots Will Buy a PS3

    Excuse me if I offend anyone, but you would seriously have to be some kind of moron to buy a PS3 for twice the price of a much better Xbox 360: Sony has flat out lied to its fans that they were going to launch this March, when everyone in the industry knew it wasn't going […]

  • Trade Your iPod

    I would like to trade my iPod for a day with different people I know. It would be great way to get exposed to knew music, flirt (if you are trading with a potential hottie) and spice up your day. Maybe there should be a “Trade Your iPod Day”?

  • Why the PS3 Will Suck

    If you know me, you know I am a big Xbox 360 fan.  Heck, I have a whole category devoted to my 360 diatribes.  But the funny thing is I don’t want the PS3 to suck, although it is going to. Here’s the deal:  Sony screwed up big time and got out-maneuvered by Microsoft.  And […]

  • iPod with Video Fun

    The one gift I got this Christmas/Channuka was a new iPod. Technically, I got several gifts that I didn't like and took them back to get it, but whatev's…I got it. I have had an iPod since the day they came out for Windows. I mean, this thing looks vintage. It's big, its scratched up, […]

  • 34 Prius Tips You May Not Know

    Well, 33 actually. I took this from a Priuschat forum because the forum has a tendency to get slow and sometimes not load at all. I wanted this not to get lost, so I took liberties to reprint it here. 😉 1. WHY YOU SHOULD INSTALL A MAGNETIC DRAIN PLUG. The oil in your Prius […]

  • Home Audio Solution

    So I’m buying a house. I didn’t think it was ever going to be possible while living in the Los Angeles area, but I got a good deal, and now I shall be living and improving our new 4 bedroom 1800 sq. ft. place in Burbank. Although a lot of work has to go into […]

  • Tivo Home Media Engine

    Never got around to it, but I installed Tivo HME. Pretty nifty. Now I can view weather on the TiVo. I already had Java installed, so the setup took about 2 minutes to see it work on the Tivo. Very impressive. I then moved on to installing the Netflix RSS Reader. My wife hates going […]

  • Current Podcasts I Listen To

    A friend finally got an iPod and wanted to know what podcasts I listen to. I hadn't really put the list together and was surprised I listen to so many: This week in TECH Security Now! Xbox Live's Major Nelson podcasts about the Xbox 360 Diggnation (although Alex Albrecht annoys the heck out of me. […]
