TOOO MANY PODCASTS !!!!!!




Podcasts have become a serious part of my multimedia expeirence in the past year or so. I had always herd of them through word of mouth and other sources, but was never interested in par taking.

I first got hooked on podcasts by the website www.Spill.com . The site has a number of podcasts that revolve primarily around film,video games and some pop culture.
The site is a film review site for the average joe i guess you would say. Out of the main podcasts they produce I listen to "A Couple of Cold Ones" and "Lets Do this" religiously. It has come to be a great time waster while doing other things. However, despite there time length I found to get Addicted to a number of podcasts that I found on Itunes.

So Over the Past Year I now subscribe to over 20 podcasts, and with some coming out with an episode a day I now find myself with an abundant of unlistened to podcasts.

Of course I listen to my usual ones its my minor shows that go forgotten. Not that I dont like the shows its just that I dont have the time lol.

I now listen to them when I go to the Gym,Drive, and go to bed so hopefully I can catch up.


OMG MUST SEE # 1 - Real Life Mario Kart

Ok people. Im gonna start a new things where I post a new video everyday (no promises, i will try) it will most likely either be insanely hilarious or really interesting.

First video in this new section is called "Real Life Mario Kart"

This guy goes over the top (in a great way) by racing a go kart on the main roads of an urban environment, and throwing real BANANAS on the road. HAHA so funny, especially with the real sound effect from the game. He eventually gets caught in a grocery store when he goes to pick up more Bananas.

Hopefully they let him go. People like this need medals not jail time.

Android Phones Vs Apple


It seems there are more android phones then combinations of phone numbers possible. Not all are top end phones that can compare to the Iphone but from what I've seen there is a few that are,and maybe even BETTER.

Some Phones like the HTC Evo , Evo Shift, Motorola Droid, Nexus S are probably front runners when it comes to comparing to the Iphone but in my mind its the "HTC Thunderbold" that might be the best smartphone to soon be on the market.

The phone has a front facing camera for video chat as well as a 8 Megapixl camera on the back.
The phone has a high resolution VGA screen probably the best next to the Iphone Retina display. One of the biggest thing is its 4g capability, which the iphone has never been able to achieve and from current rumors wont be in the next version of the phone either. It has almost a full inch bigger screen then the current iphone at 3.5 Inch and the Thunderbolt at 4.3.

Apps could go eitherway, the android marketplace is growing more and more everyday. Almost all popular Iphone apps are now available on android phones.

This phone tops off with 800 mb of Ram!!!! holy jumpin. This thing has more speed memory then my Emachines PC.

I am an apple lover but this thing is making me look the other way. Id say the only thing stopping me from getting this when it comes out is the simplicity of itunes and the Iphone. Its so convenient to have my Photos,Music and podcast which I get from the Itunes Store is synced via Itunes in one easy step. Plug it in, let it sync and off I go.

Im not sure about the software that the Thunderbolt has for syncing, but if its as simple and convenient, it might not be a contest. Until The Iphone 5.

GreenPoison Releases Iphone Jailbreak 4.2.1


If you have tried to jailbreak your iphone with IOS 4.2.1 Firmware you know that you had to do what is called a "Tethered Jailbreak" which means whenever your IOS device turns off, you had to plug it into your computer and red the program "Redsnow" in order to turn it back on.

I had an Iphone 3g, now i own an Iphone 4. I have always been skeptical of jailbreaking my phone for a number of reasons. First being the name. Jailbreaking sounds so destructive. I know that its not as bad as I had thought before but it also cancels your apple warranty.

I had attempted to Jailbreak my phone about a week ago and had nothing but problems. It would load up the cydia app store. Any app i downloaded wouldnt work and not to mention, turning my phone on took way longer then normal and scared me to death.

Today a Website called GreenPoison has released an "Untethered Jailbreak" software for mac users and windows to be released in the next few days.


If you go to the site now (at least for me) you will get and offline message or just a screen shot of the homepage and you are unable to download the software. This could be for the amount of traffic it might have received or for whatever reason they may have.

I am interested in trying this one more time, so if anyone has any success stories I would Love to Know.

Great Viral Video Site.


Ever seen a video on youtube that made you laugh out loud? A video that amazed you?
Of course you have, however these videos are sometimes hard to find. Well there is a website that is designed to show you some of these videos. In fact a diferent video everyday in a number of categories from Funny,Music,Tech,and Ouch which im sure you can guesse what kind of videos are in that category.

The Site is called TodaysBigThing.com.

I recomend you put it in your bookmarks and check it out once a day and check the new videos from a number sources they have.

The site locates viral videos from a number of sources like Youtube & Break.com and put 1 video in a number of categories everyday.

I personally have found a number of hidden gems on this site and others seem to enjoy it as well. Here is a video I found last week that I was amazed by.


Enjoy.
