The Dutch Hate Pirates

The Pirate Bay is trying to make their image more Dutch friendly. They will stop hosting torrent downloads on their own site. Instead people will have to download straight from other people.

Just like a big brother that destroys your best dolls....

Fox has canceled Joss Wheadon's show Dollhouse. For those of you who don't know who Joss Wheadon is, he is the greatest man in hollywood ever. He made the amazing series Firefly, Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel, and re-wrote Aliens (which was previously un-shootable). Dollhouse DID have a cult following, but I can see why fox would cancel it. Most Joss fans hope that this cancelation will give him time to start on the sequel to his internet hit, Dr. Horribles Sing-A-Long Blog.

CoD 4.7million: Modern Sales

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare 2 (CoD 6?) made history by selling 4.6 million copies opening weekend. This isn't only the fastest selling video game, but the biggest entertainment launch ever, EVER! Making 310 million dollars for company Activision (the publisher).

Read it.. er.. I mean Reddit

Reddit is probably one of the greatest websites ever. Ok maybe not ever but it is still pretty great. Reddit is a site where people think things from around the internet. The things linked are then voted on bye the users so you only see the best of the best on the front page. I have spend a good portion of my life on this site, and I only discovered it a year ago.

Note: They are largely left wing, atheist, cat-lovers, and bacon lovers. Seriously they love bacon.

They are also the nicest people on the web :D

(Btw I am not saying the above mentioned things are bad, I support all that thing (including bacon) but just wanted to make sure everyone knew what they were getting into)

Google Music

Google has announced that when you search for music new stuff happens. It will now give previews of songs, link you to song websites like Rapsody, and you can now search fragments of song too.

BestRent

Best Buy will soon start a digital delivery service for Movies, T.V., etc. It seems odd that Best Buy one of the biggest DVD sellers in the world has switched to rental.

Modders now Banned

People who own a modded Xbox 360 will not be allowed to access Xbox Live services. Modded Xbox's allow people to played hacked/modded games, as well as sometimes cheat. Unfortunately the only way to get back onto Xbox Live is to buy a new Xbox.

The PSP Go doesn't go in Japan

The PSPGo didn't sell well in Japan. Only 28,275 sold in Japan on the consoles release date. But the (normal) PSP has sold 12,797,180 units in Japan since its release date in 04.

The Good, The Bad, The Google nav

So I heard that Google navigation has its good and its bad. First the good, it's free, and it has live traffic, over-the-air maps, multiple visual layers, search along routes, etc. Pretty damn impressive. But, unfortunately, the text search sucks because it searches from various sources, which will overlap which is bad.
