Major Nelson's Xbox - Jun 20 2010

Dogs age seven years to a human's one. For consoles the ratio is more like FIFTEEN to one. When you have been ignored for 8 days, these are the kinds of things you think about.

Major Nelson's Xbox - Jun 21 2010

Major Nelson decided to game yesterday and we rocked out like the three musketeers, except there were only two of us... 43,117 points of total gamerscore and counting... That is a profit of 15 points over last time! He opened up Alpha Protocol, and I thought Major Nelson injured himself in the process... but I was wrong... he lives to fight another day!

Major Nelson's Xbox - Jun 22 2010

I was looking back through my notes and according to Major Nelson, we played some games yesterday... but that is just craziness. Sure our score is now 43127 which is a gain of 10 points, but I can't tell you from what. Maybe next time I will remember.

Major Nelson is awesome! Just plain radical even... I say that because we played some games. Did you know our gamerscore is 43,137? That is an improvement of 10 points over last time! He rallied Split/Second gaining 3 achievements, and then I needed a nap. Don't judge me! It's a lot of work pushing all those pixels.

YouTube Adds Easy Video Editor

    Viewed: 134 Times
Categories: Other, VOD/Streaming

YouTube has quietly added a video editor to its site giving users the power to join together videos using clips already posted on the site to create a new video. FYI though, they have to be clips you have uploaded.

The editor is lacking some features, but offers just enough functionality to be useful to most YouTube users, especially ones without a high end PC designed for video processing.

YouTube says it may eventually add transitions and other common tools, but there has to be a demand for it.

More HD DVD players than Blu-ray players in America. Still. In 2009.

In frankly amazing news even to me, a new Harris Poll shows that over a year and a half since the format war ended there are more Americans with HD DVD players than with Blu-ray players, and in fact 2009 was a pretty good year for HD DVD players, in 2008 6% of Americans had an HD DVD player and now 11% do! As the article says, "Interest in Blu-ray remains lukewarm" which put a big grin on my face.
