Screw you “creators” of ABC’s Wipeout! Your casting sucks ass and so do your courses. For crap’s sake, you know those red balls are nearly impossible to clear! How dare you rape one of my favorite shows on television! Good luck on getting a second season.
MXC FTW!…
I watched Wipeout with the development guys at work (even though I know nothing about television production), and it was absolute, utter bullshit garbage. The audio was hollow, the commentary was neutered, the casting was a travesty, and the obsticles were poorly thought out. There were a couple highlights, but watching this MXC clip shamed Wipeout so bad that DVR at work pissed oil and self-destructed.
Web regulators Thursday voted to allow the creation of thousands of new domain names, from .paris to .Pepsi, in one of the biggest shake-ups in Internet history…
Currently all web addresses fall under one of some 250 top-level domain names: .country or .territory domains, and generic ones such as .com, .net and .org, .gov, and .edu.
Under the new system, the web’s 1.3 billion users would be able from 2009 to buy an unlimited number of generic addresses based on common words, brands or company names, cities or proper names.

After holding back on joining Hulu, ABC signed a deal with Veoh to make full episodes of prime time shows available on veoh.com… Users who discover a show on Veoh will actually pull up ABC’s own player to watch the video with pre-sold ads.
Dipshit old media move, ABC …
Anyone who thinks that this is a bad idea is apperently not familiar with television or television being shown on the internet…
Good call. Despite my education, the network television shows that I work on, and the fact that most of my television viewing is online, I obviously have no idea how televison works, much less television on the internet.
Please explain the logic behind isolating a network’s programming to their own website. Rather than going with a thriving system that has been embraced by internet users, ABC has decided that they’re too good to use some other website, and are just peddling the same proprietary bullshit that they have been for a while. Unless a user knows that they want to catch last night’s episode of Lost, they are not going to casually browse to abc.com to find something to watch on their lunch break. The fact that Hulu makes it easy to browse their massive library of programming, and offers a solid flash video player (without a sketchy proprietary plugin, complete with 12 paragraph EULA) makes it far superior for casual viewers, looking for something to watch online.
Partnering up with Hulu, or actually working with Veoh (rather than just buying glorified ad-space) would absolutely be the smart move for ABC. By isolating their programming in the protective bubble of abc.com, they’re missing a huge opportunity to gain new audiences, and clinging onto an antequated and ineffective online-television distribution model.
I not going to deal with this kid all day, just because I’m the ‘mom’. That’s because I don’t take shit from nobody.
This little guy is a drum machine robot that searches for surfaces to drum on. It even samples itself to produce complex rhythms.
If the human race ever becomes enslaved by robots, I hope and pray they’re at least this cool.
Wall-E and Roomba have just become meaningless to me. I need a Yellow Drumbot.
Why Russert and Carlin, and not O’Reilly and Mencia?

I like how whatthefuckdoineedtoknow quickly de-evolved from things with some sort of importance, to celebrity gossip and things that nobody needs to know. It’s just like ‘real’ news!
