The wife just got Star Wars Battlefront for the PlayStation 2 and I found the controls horrible compared to the PC version. Well if a trackball could be added to the controller it would solve all my problems with FPS on the PS2.
–This is my first submission to digg.com!
Yes, my wife and I have been watching Dancing with the Stars. We took dancing lessons last fall in preparation for our wedding, so our interest in the show is understandable. We’ve been fans of John O’Hurley and his dancing partner Charlotte since we started watching about halfway into the series.
The final was tonight and it turns out we’ve got another Twenty-One on our hands. John and Charlotte didn’t win even though they got straight 9’s in both dances. The other couple got an 8 and two 9’s during their first dance… then managed to get straight 10’s on the second.
Excuse me?
No one had gotten even one 10 up to that point, and here they get 3? I could even tell they screwed up lots during that last dance, and I can’t even remember those classes we took. I’m sorry I thought this was supposed to be a competition… turns out it was a afternoon TV special about an soap opera star learning to overcome adversity. I don’t even care about who won… but this was the most blatant example of a fixed show I’ve ever witnessed.
I may as well have watched a touchy feel good Disney movie… oh wait I just did!
My friend since forever… okay, High School… has just entered the Blogiverse. Go and check out the currently entitled Critical Mass.
PS: This isn’t her first Blog! I set one up for her years ago… but Blogger wasn’t so spiffy back then.
I’m trying my hand at a little podcasting… sans the ipod.
The old Screen Savers gang from the defunct TechTV channel have created an online audio show. They’re referring to it as This Week In Tech… i.e. TWIT. One of the guys who is stuck on G4 now, started his own online show called systm. It’s short but pretty neat.
If I can find enough interesting feeds I can burn them to rewritable CD and have something worth listening to on the way between work and home.
Also from the same guy doing systm… is digg, which is kind of an improved Slashdot. On this site your peers and friends help promote stories to the front page (unlike Slashdot where it is up to the moderators or Taco). Haven’t fully checked it out yet, but it looks quite compelling.
Here’s the list of links to all the final projects from my class, including my team’s entry.

Now I just have 8 article summaries and a 2-5 page paper to do, isn’t that just wonderful.
