Good Find.....
Wow, good find.... Since I've been a Winamp and Shoutcast guy for ever, switching to iTunes was a bit traumatising. By absolute fluke I found this quick and sleezy method to get shoutcast into iTunes.
I've just tried it and it works like a charm. The only problem is that some of the sites I listen to are not in .pls format but there's sooooooo much to listen on shout cast that Im sure that I can find a replacement.
Stations that I listen to:
You can always go to www.shoutcast.com to find your own or go download winamp at www.winamp.com to get all these stations. Side note, if your an old ipod user, the winamp software allows you to manage your collection and sync it with your ipod (both directions and multiple computers :D )

Casual Friday
OK, so its Friday..... Not much going on at work. Everyone is playing around not doing much work. I still feel its my duty to do some work, so I research as usual and I came across some time wasters. Here are a couple.
#1
I've always been a fan of SNL (Saturday Night Live) but over the years they've been a bit boring, ok not a bit, A LOT. I found this post on engadget and I figured that I would give it some of my time (since it was Friday and no one else was working). I'm happy that I did. Fred Armison is hilarious. This clip is about that big touch screen that they use at CNN and FOX. It made me really laugh out loud. I think you have to be a bit of a techno geek to really laugh at it, but give it a try.

Being a Iphone and a Blackberry user I found this post very interesting. I think that all 3 phones have good qualities about them, but I still favor my Blackberry 8320 over the others. Take a look for your self and tell me what you think....
iPhone 3G, BlackBerry Storm and Bold compared on video: awkward...
sorry no audio on it, just a disturbing voice at the begining........ I'm gona look for a better video...
OOOOo and cant forget.... check out where I work. www.getnextv.com and if your intrested in Russian TV its another good spot to check out.

Epic Fail....
Ok, so your going to see my using the phrase FAIL, or EPIC FAIL a lot. The phrase FAIL comes from the obvious. Attempting to do something and then failing at it. If it's real bad? then its EPIC. So we start with a mediocre fail. Here's a link of screen shot from flickr, which has a picture of a comercial on TV. ahaha read the fine print ;)
You deserve to get screwed by this lawyer just for not reading the obivious. LOL
I dont see it as a megafail but it is a FAIL with out doubt.

I have a few reasons why I decdided to start blogging.
- Keep the world updated with my findings.
- Keep my friends upadted with the my daily rants and thoughts about technology.
- Help other sites that I am affiliated with to get ranked higher up on goolge. (to be discussed at a later point in time.
- Who knows? This might actually get popular enough that I could make some money out of it (highly unlikely, but who knows, it dosnt hurt to dream.
Somone might ask " What can I expect to see on your blog? "
Well? Here are a few ideas of what to expect.
- NEW STUFF, yup I said it. All my friends come to me for all things computer related.
- Links to other sites with intresting information. (I always get excited when I find some new cool thing on the net, but I never know how to share it with all my friends.)
- New Ideas from me! (I'm always coming up with some new business idea and look forward to get feedback from others on what they think.)
- Pictures, Diagrams, Files.... All kinds of stuff related to technology and computers.
- New findings on Windows Media Serivces, Windows Media Encoder, and all forms of Streaming. (( Since I work at a IPTV company (internet protocol TV) I'm always finding new ways to stream better.)
Also, please don't make comments about my spelling or grammer. I really dont care... Thats what spell checker was made for, if I have the time to do it I will, but if I don't please don't bother me with it......
