Caught up with ITC and PA, so back to normal.

P.S. (well not P.S. as this is a pre-script) this is a two-day post, the atom server hasn't been letting me access it all day.

dl.tv - Episode 88 - Starts off with some news, my favorite is that the PS3 hasn't even started production, which apparently is still going on sale in November.  Lots of good talk about extended warranties.  I don't buy them.  While it sucks the one time my plan needs to be put into effect, I figured that if I don't buy the warranty on anything, I'm ahead even if I had to replace something in 2 years.

dl.tv - Episode 89 - A giant video card with a huge heatsink, kinda cool looking.  DV Nation has lent the guys a notebook to check out, with flash drives, awesome!  Some emusic talk which is always good, emusic rocks.

Diggnation - Episode 60 - Wow, the intro was in a weird stereo, actually the whole episode might be in this type of stereo.  Not sure if I like it or not, because I wear headphones.  They're going really cheap on the beers, with the good 'ole Miller High Life (in 24 oz beers.)  ITMS might start offering lossless files for a bit more.  I still won't buy it from them because I don't buy DRM'd music.  An old video of Russian Scientists keeping a dogs head alive, which is very sad.  Japan is feeling the pressure of their new 100 mb/s INTERNET connection, which is ridiculous. 

Geekdrome - Episode 40 - They have a forum member in the audience again today, this seems to be a weekly thing that this happens.  A new intro (same song, but some cool graphics.)  They didn't have as much fun at Snakes on a Plane as I did, which is unfortunate.  I about feel out of my chair when Dan got tackled again during the taping of the show.  Lace was wondering what I was laughing about.

Crankygeeks - Episode 24 - Microsoft approached the Mozilla developers to make sure that Firefox works with Vista.  Pure PR move.  Exploding batteries talk, fun stuff.  John thinks that teen buying booze online is a planted story by the liquor control industry that wants to prevent buying alcohol online so they can control it. 

Command-N - Episode 59 - Mike is very excited about a new show called Gold Rush that Mark Brunette is producing.  Apparently it's a treasure-hunt style show, but I'm not sure if everyone is involved in searching for it or not, we'll see.  Blackberries are starting to be banned from some meetings because they're such a attention-grabber. 

Inked - Mud, Sweat & Tears - Carey doesn't know how to play poker, yet plays in a celebrity charity event anyway (and is the first out in the entire field.)  Also, Dizzle mud wrestles with Katie, then treats her like an ass.  He's kinda a dick.

Inked - Surf & Murph - H & H are expanding to Hawaii.  Matt is doing some racing.  This wasn't my favorite episode, though, because they didn't do much tatooing in this episode and some of their stories are why this show is interesting.

Hrmm, won't let me post last night or this morning, so you get two days in one!

dl.tv - Mermon notebooks, very cool (well, actually, very hot).  They spoke to a lawyer about the note they got last episode about a cease and desist letter from an ISP for file sharing.  Also Paint.Net a replacement for MSPaint and almost as good as photoshop and free.
