Finally: Max Headroom on DVD
A box set of the short lived ABC tv series Max Headroom will finally be been released on DVD on August 10, 2010. It was a show that was ahead of it’s time and it’s a shame it was canceled so soon. I remember being mesmerized by the “graphics” of the Max Headroom character and […]

I’m hooked on this new site called upl8.tv. The genius is in it’s simplicity. It continuously plays “curated” videos from YouTube. Don’t like what’s on? Change the channel by pressing the space bar. You can “seed” the tv by putting a term after the URL like “/monkeys” or whatever. Up late indeed.
Remix: Windows 7 Party Pack Video
Windows, long known for making painfully embarrassing product videos, are up to their old tricks again. And as usual the tables have turned. Oh Microsoft, when will you learn? Make sure you watch the real one first (don’t worry, you won’t be able to get through the whole thing and that’s ok– it just sets […]
