I am a Gamer

I will state it now, even though I think I should of stated it earlier. I am a gamer.

There are two kinds of gamers. There are the gamers that play games for fun and enjoyment with their families and there are the gamers that play for honor and sport. I am the later.

I've owned a number of systems in my life starting with the super nintendo. Now I'm up to the Nintendo DS Lite. I had an Xbox 360, but it perished and I'm trying to earn the funds to get a new one.

Hardcore Gamer, I am. Tech Nerd, I am.

Facebook reign over the internet has begun!

Facebook recently bought friendfeed, a social networking site where one can create a news feed out of their friend's updates from Facebook, Google and Twitter.

They also recently added a search function to the site that allows a reader to search for specific information, like news updates, through the web and their own friends.

An idea scurrying around is that Facebook might just be trying to step their A-game up in the social networking world, even finding its way up to the popularity that Twitter flocks with.

Another implied thought is that Facebook is trying to beat its way into a future search engine or none-the-less, become a Google clone of some kind, like a kid admiring a hero so much he would dress up like him to a comparable extent.

What the hell was Nintendo thinking when they were patenting this idea?

A Euorpean Nintendo patent was revealed recently that just made me think so negative, its horrible.

The patent is a game where you ride horses, dolphins or gryphon's using this contraption that is an inflatable cushion that you stick your Wiimote in.

Its a horrible picture that just leaves me with my head down in shame of what Nintendo has done to my brain.

I didn't think building a PC was that difficult...mistake one.

I've decided to take on a task. A special task that many have done or failed.

Making a PC from scratch.

After my laptop became unsuable for a time, it may be saved now, I started using my mom's PC she uses every now and then. The machine is slow and a terror for a blogger like myself. It shut down on my when I do certian posts or play music and do various things at once because of over-heating.

The computer made me hit the breaking point and then it happened! I gained the brilliant idea of creating my own PC from scratch. I've been reading up on different how-to's for making a PC and I have to say, I am a little terrified at tall the details stated, but I know I can do it...hopefully.

iTunes 9 may have Blu-ray support and app organizing, along with s

Yesterday, The Boy Genius Report posted a story that when I first read the post's title, I was a little skeptical.

They state that they have a "pretty reliable source" who told them about three features in Apple iTunes 9, which doesn't have a public release date at the moment.

One feature is Blu-ray support. This feature can be held potentially true because apple is apparently integrating Blu-ray into their future iMac line-up, as stated by Apple Insider.

The next feature is the implication of app organizing and arranging for the iPhone and iTouch.

The last, but not least, feature posted was an unknown mix between Twitter, Facebook and Last.Fm. Boy Genius states a good idea that the three can probably be used to post what one may be listening to at that moment.

Lights of Love?

I read an article today on Switched that made me go "...what?..."

So I am no stranger to intimacy, so I know the different ways two lovers can express their love. Such expressions include a kiss and a hug or holding hands. Even technology has been involved in the game of love like special "toys" or even through cell phones or computers, but light as well?

Distance Labs has created the Mutsugoto. The Mutsugoto is a device that allows two people who are separated but still want that sensual feeling together to share their lovin all over their body with special rings they wear. These rings some how allow light to pass to one person and vise versa. The lights are some how an unusual way that a couple can find another way to make themselves and their other-half feel good all night.

Podcasts Save Lives Everyday

One thing that I can not live without are my podcasts.

Podcasts are like pre-recorded radio that one can download on the iTunes store. They are, besides my girlfriend, my DS Lite and coffee, the only things that make my day just that much bearable.

The first podcasts I ever listened to was Achievement Junkies, an Xbox 360 oriented podcast where two Xbox fans, one who worked for Microsoft at one point, talked Xbox news whether it be new releases and updates. I experienced people with new opinions about video games other than my own. It was also a chance for me to create ideas for arguments about the video game industry, which I was and still am a big fan of.

Through out the years I've found many characters in such podcasts such as the Giant Bomb podcast, CAG Cast, the Geekbox and Rebel FM.

Without podcasts, I'd probably go insane and probably hear what people are telling me. iPod is always in the ear, ya know.
