but I’m a little lazy and don’t want to think about the hundreds of movies I’ve seen. Kudos to this person for doing this (with the accompanying Youtubes).

Tek Jansen’s Explosive Gaming Experience! : PS3 Blu Ray vs Xbox 360 HD DVD vs DVD
So this guy decides that HD-DVD is better than Bluray. Of course he’s trying them out via consoles (and as such different output signals). And he’s viewing them on a 1080p set.

What did you learn this year?
BBC Magazine – 100 Things We Learned This Year
Random list by the BBC of things we learned this year. Though there are links to the info, some I remain dubious about (admittedly not having clicked through).
(And yes I realize that “So random even I don’t know what it is” would imply that I shouldn’t tag this post with other bits, but I didn’t read the whole 100 list and I’m leaving myself some grey area.)
What sex is your writing?
This is great. I hide nothing from my loyal 4 readers. Heck, you can check. Some posts come up as female. Some as mail. Rest assured dear readers, all written by me. I’m not farming out my blogging to a team of bloggers, nosireebob.

“Forgoing sleep is the only way I’ve figured out how to fit it all in,” he says.
Good enough for Dean, good enough for me. In fact that’s my exact sentiment. Even though these days, even on the low sleep levels, I’m not getting things done. Such is life I guess…
