#9 If i look down a tube... will i get a black ring around my eye?
So You tube is great. Other than the fact that it doesn't host the world of tv yet it's getting close. Once they upgrade to 1080p HD programming or i guess i could call it H.264 or x264 some people call it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264 for more information about such things. but i guess posting that bumps me a week ahead of schedule. anyways back to the fun of online content. I believe it would be a great benefit to have a better on demand viewing of shows. Anytime, Anyplace, Anyone. Than you can sell me a 9"LCD, PDA with wireless access. Have the cities mass spam free wireless service and i can watch what i want, when i want, where i want, how i want. Even than give me an upgrade to a built in micro projector system that will produce a 30" viewable on any surface display and call it good. Add in a 1 speaker "surround" and BAM you have instant gratification and babysitting for everyone. Or maybe instead of everyone fighting with speakers you could just buy a pair of "surround" headphones a couple splitters and have everyone tap into it. but i guess after all that i have strayed from the point at hand. GO YOUTUBE! way to bring in the world of entertainment to the masses. Now make it better so we don't have to watch it in such low resolutions and horrible detail. we all want utter video perfection at the cost of nothing. How else would we all want to live?
#8 Will you be my pixelized friend? PM me! :) LOL
I have had a myspace for quite some time now. it was cool at first posting pictures and commenting on other peoples pictures and looking at what other people write about themselves. Than it all faded away one day and it seemed that i was posting the same thing or no longer adding content or just in general staring at the screen. So i kinda stepped away from it for awhile. Maybe i will look it over once in awhile to see if everyone hasn't dumped me as a friend. Cause it seems that if you don't fight for the top 8 people bump you to the back log of friends and never talk to you again. which is kinda funny. even after eliminating the need to be social in the real world and fight for the free time to spend with friends. we now argue and fight over a pixalized world where we are given a rank and standings for how "good" a friend we are. The theory of my of bestfriend is the #1 or my significant other fits the profile of "popularity" even over the great world of the internet. I don't much care anymore for social networks as i would rather participate in the real world battle to have true social interaction with real people. The only good thing about these social networks is keeping in touch with friends that may not live in the same area or you can't possibly see once a month. But for the rest of them... grab a phone... hook up time and go DO something with the people your friends with. Host a barbeque or a party and invite them all over and enjoy a night of fun. Plan a sports event and a lunch out. Don't get sucked into how much screen time you spend with your friends. It's not worth the suffering.

#7 Digging up a picture worth talking about
http://www.flickr.com/photos/gilart/1846282519/
So there is the link to the picture. It is of someone cosplaying Archer from fate, stay, night. What interests me about the pictures is the daggers or small swords he is holding. I will be cosplaying as him when i go to AX in july. I was looking for ideas of how to make a similar pair without to much of a hassle. so looking at what others have done is a good start for making my way to victory. to bad there wasn't contact information for the person in the picture or i would ask what he did to make them. but i guess i have to go sifting through countless bloggs and websites. i could also magicly create some artistic abilities and find a way to make them myself. Hope you all enjoy the picture as much as i did even though i'm guessing there won't be to many people that know the reference of anything i just spoke of. If you did... well send me some ideas for creating these :)

There is also a picture of the action figure version of them in a more complete detail. i have yet to get a good screenshot of them from the anime. so another picture to look at. sadly it's not flickerized or i would post that link instead.

#6 Music for the masses
So i looked at some of the music sites without actually registering to them and atleast poked around. I don't much listen to music while at my computer. although i do use my computer to play music in my house. Like if i'm cleaning or working on a project i will turn it to media mode and let it run it's thing. I do have alot of music i listen to and normally have alot of play lists depending on my need for the day. As for listening to streaming music... i don't think it's for me. i like the idea of finding similar music depending on what i put in to listen to. but i don't much spend alot of time looking for similar music. i just pick up what i see down the road and dive in. but hey as soon as they let me have a 5.1 system at my desk at work... i might take up steaming music to listen to.
