Of course you need to be in California and get invited…. As many people know, Google offers its employees free lunch and free dinner at the campus (Yahoo charges its employees). It’s a lavish affair, with many different types of high quality food, drinks, desert, etc. I like visiting Google for lunch, and accept nearly [...]
TV Week is reporting that “Battlestar Galactica” has officially earned a third season on SciFi Channel, joining “Stargate SG-1″ and “Stargate: Atlantis” in earning renewals over the last two weeks. And there was much rejoicing! I’ve been watching this show since the beginning and haven’t regretted it yet. Keep in mind they are talking about [...]
I had almost forgotten. I just got my Harry Turtledove fix with Drive to the East, so much so I forgot the sequel to Days of Infamy was coming out this moth. Cool! If you don’t know much about Harry Turtledove, he writes what is fast becoming a popular new genre of fiction. With his [...]
Remember that weird thing a while back, the “All your base are belong to us” thing? Well, it’s back. And this time it’s done to the tune of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. Check it out: … All Your Base Rhapsody
Just like everyone else in the Blogoshpere that has downloaded it, I am testing a post from within Flock. Let’s see how well it works. If it does work, expect a very positive review on this software from me soon! Well, it’s a day after I posted the above from the built in blog editor [...]
One of the coolest things about the new season of Doctor Who was the character Captain Jack Sparrow. He’s similar to Malcolm Reynolds on Firefly, or more Similar to what Han Solo should have been. Well, the bad news is it doesn’t look like he’ll be back with the Doctor anytime soon. The good news [...]
HM…So I took this quiz to see which sci-fi/fantasy character I am. It claims I am Luke Skywalker from Star Wars. I’m not so sure. Boldly striving to overcome the darkness both in this world and within yourself, you are righteously devoted to forging your own destiny. It’s your choice, but I warn you not [...]
This is interesting… Handheld computer makers Palm and Research In Motion inked a deal on Monday to let Treo 650 owners to connect with BlackBerry e-mail and calendar software. The option will be available for new and existing Treo 650 users as well as future Treo products with the Palm operating system starting in early [...]
Check this out… You scored as Shepherd Derrial Book. The Preacher. Out here, folks need a minister, if only to remind them that God hasn’t forgotten them. It isn’t about making them worship, it is teaching them to do right by themselves and other people. Why is that so hard for some to understand? Which [...]
I’m a Sci-Fi geek, there’s no doubt about it. One thing I love is a good starship design. So it’s no surprise I started drooling when I found Jeff Russell’s starship dimensions. It’s a size comparison of various Sci-Fi ships, as well as few real structures for good measure (no pun intended). Go check it [...]
Someone is not paying any attention at all. They say that not having the choice to decide to have bluetooth and/or wifi on the new iMacs is bad because of the dangers involved. First question is “what dangers”? They give a lot of anecdotal information on their website, but they give no real proof. Meanwhile, [...]
This sounds like a cheap alternative to those expensive Palm Pilots and Pocket PC’s. Of course, I just use this instead.
This is old, but good news. According to the Sci Fi Wire, most of the cast has been signed to do two more movies if they make them. (Let’s hope they do!) They include Adam Baldwin, Summer Glau, Sean Maher, Jewel Staite, Gina Torres and Morena Baccarin. Star Nathan Fillion wouldn’t say whether he’s signed [...]
Overshadowed by the announcement of the video capable iPods today were the new iMacs. These things look awesome. Now if they would just put out one with a forty inch screen.
Sounds like the “one more thing” is actually a few more things. One of them is a video iPod…. update After reading what it’s all about, I’ll have to pass. Apple is on the right track, but not quite there yet. I give it a year….
Someone came up with a really cool idea for the menu interface for the black iPod Nano. I like it. It’s sexy…. Found via digg.com.
Jerry O’Connell (or Sliders fame) and Rebbecca Romijn (Mystique from X-Men) got engaged. I wish them all the happiness married life has given me. But that’s not why posted this. It’s to point it out to all the single geeks out there. Have hope! If the fat kid from Stand By Me can marry a [...]
The last two episodes, while looking like they were going to be kind of dull, weren’t. Both of them were cool. Chief’s a Cylon… The new ship “Laura” is part of their “plan”…..
This is pretty funny. It’s conversation between “Brushed Metal” and his (I assume “Brushed Metal” is a he) agent right after the first public showing of iTunes 5. It’s pretty funny, but I must give a “NSFW” language warning. It contains a few profanities.
There are few things I hate more than having to have a “free account” somewhere to read their articles. Isn’t is bad enough that I have close all the pop-up advertisements. I guess not. I guess now they want a way to put that stuff in email inbox. Well, here’s a quick way around it [...]
