more Starcraft 2
May 19
Well, here’s a video cap of the Starcraft 2 announcement video at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational:
But, they also released some of the videos in much better quality on the newly launched Starcraft 2 website.
IGN also has a few, in similar quality to the official Blizzard ones.
Best interpretation of a long time tech support joke. Tech support may have permanently scarred me, but I can still laugh about it.
Shack finds rosi
Mar 5
Back in July, I made a video to illustrate how Project Reality plays, and to have a few laughs with some CoFRs I had been playing it with.
After getting a few comments on it in the last couple weeks, I just realized that I only casually linked it here on drzy, without so much as an introduction or the embedded video from YouTube.
So, as for the introduction: This video shows me playing Project Reality Mini Mod on a public server that happens to have a few other CoFRs also playing. I think this is version .32 of the game.
Those that play this BF2 mod know that you only can identify teammates. There is no way to tell who an enemy is specifically in-game, and there is also no concrete way to tell you’ve killed an enemy aside from standing over his still-warm corpse.
I took a demo of an especially long and intense play session on the map Road to Kyongan’Ni. I had no idea that I had any interaction with anyone I knew, aside form players on my team. It turns out, I had a pretty good battle with my friend Shack and his squad. By pretty good, I mean: they killed us, ran up the hill, avoided an oblivious tank completely, and then killed us a couple more times. 
So, I wanted to show this to him and the other CoFRs. I recorded the demo and uploaded it to YouTube. It’s got a fair amount of views and a few comments over the months. At the least, it’s worth listening to the soundtrack by Matisyahu. And although it seems like it at times, I did not synchronize my camera movements to the songs, it just worked out that way.
YouTube the cat
Oct 10
It’s doubtful that “YouTube” is the cat’s actual name, but that’s the only description on the video, so ok. Normally I don’t like to post random non-tech-related funny stuff, but sometimes I can’t help it. I guess that’s why i made the “pure humor” category. This cat cracked me up.
Google snaps up YouTube
Oct 9
If buying something for 1.85 billion clams can be considered “snapping up”.
When Google Video was first launched, I thought that was going to be the de facto way to see clips on the net. But it never really panned out. At least, not with the explosive success of YouTube. For one of the few times, another company did something that Google was trying, and did it better.
Google did not rest on its pride. They recognized this, and sought to buy them out. I don’t know if that can be considered noble, or sharky business tactics, or neither.
I hope that they do what we all hoped would come about with Google Video… combining the fantastic searching power of Google with the great easy interface of YouTube.
youtube has a great snowball effect going. First they stole all the thunder from Google Video with their superior tagging, searching, and embedding. Then people started posting old 80’s series, and now there are full length movies on the thing.
Here’s some retro luvin’:
