TiVo ToGo

I finally received the TiVo ToGo update.  My first complaint:  I am unable to skip commercials.  When the TiVo recording is playing on my laptop the seek/forward/reverse features in Windows Media Player 10 are disabled.  Annoying.

Star Wars: Battlefront

I picked up Star Wars: Battlefront a few days ago. I like it a lot (and I am not a big shoot 'em up game fan). Online play rocks. The kicker is that I've been playing online with people using the PC version (I have the PS2 version). Most online play I've seen like Madden or ESPN NFL 2K5 has been restricted to similar console only. For example, if you have a PS2 you play against other PS2 users.... if you have an XBox you play against other XBox users.

An Automobile With Feelings

“Four inventors working for Toyota in Japan have won a patent for a car that they say can help drivers communicate better by glaring angrily at another car cutting through traffic as well as appear to cry, laugh, wink, or just look around. “  More ...

Google GMail's GUI

Check out a screenshot of Google GMail's GUI.  Its fast, simple, and straight forward.  Google Ads appear on the right-hand side when composing a new email (um.... I mean GMail).  However, they are not imposing, distracting, or annoying.  Unlike Yahoo and Hotmail , advertisements (images and/or text) are NOT appended to the bottom of every message you send.  07/01/2004 Update: http://gmail.google.com/gmail/help/screen1.html

Subscribing to Your Own Weblog

People who subscribe to their own weblogs are weird, no?  Is it an aggregator “hit” count thing?  Or maybe subscribing to your own weblog is an extension of one's narcissism?

Soviet Union & Space Shuttle

I read about this for the first time today:  back in the 80s, the
Soviets shot a laser beam and hit the space shuttle Challenger.  It
was only minor damage, yet made a powerful statement.

Peter Schweizer's book, Reagan's War. There, he recounts the
following, taking place during the 1982 "seven hour nuclear war":

Later, the U.S. space shuttle Challenger was cruising the heavens in a
tight orbit around the earth at an altitude of some 365 kilometers,
conducting a variety of scientific tests and observing celestial
bodies in space. Down on earth, at a massive Soviet military research
facility at Sary Shagan, Soviet officials were tracking the shuttle's
progress with an advanced Argun large-phased-array radar. When the
shuttle came into range, they fired a thin beam of light—a megawatt
laser—directly at Challenger. The onboard communications began to
malfunction and the crew felt some physical discomfort. Later, when
the shuttle returned to earth and NASA officials determined what had
happened, Reagan filed a strongly worded protest to Moscow.

Gmail + RSS = Best Ever News Aggregator

For those of you who have a Gmail account... wouldn't it be awesome if you could assoicate a “label” (or something similiar) with a RSS feed?
