Gaming: Guitar Hero World Tour Gets Official

Guitar Hero World Tour is now official for a Fall of 2008 release thanks to a press release making it so. As our friends at Kotaku have pointed out, the most innovative aspect of the game is the Music Studio feature that will allow users to create and share original music, essentially making the Guitar Hero guitar the real instrument everyone hoped it could be. Other than that, we can expect the rumored electronic drum kit, newly redesigned guitar and a microphone along with the standard gameplay upgrades. For the full scoop, check out the press release after the break. And hit the Kotaku link for more screenshots.

Indiana Jones Theme Song Spoof

This is a very fun spoof on Indiana Jones.  We are using an Indiana Jones theme for VBS this year.  I think some green screen work like this might just be the ticket.  Enjoy!

I pulled the video because it automatically played each time you visit my site. Very annoying.

Nintendo launches WiiWare with six games | Geek Gestalt - A blog by Daniel Terdiman - CNET News.com

Nintendo launches WiiWare with six games | Geek Gestalt - A blog by Daniel Terdiman - CNET
News.com

Nintendo on Monday put its latest shot across the bow of Microsoft
and Sony when it officially launched WiiWare, its new online repository
of downloadable games.

Ostensibly a service where Wii gamers will be able to shop for new, independent games, WiiWare seems to be Nintendo's answer to Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade and its XNA Studio and to Sony's PlayStation Store.

WiiWare is launching with six games: Square Enix's Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King, Frontier Development's LostWinds, XGen Studios' Defend your Castle, Nnooo's Pop, High Voltage Software's V.I.P. Casino: Blackjack, and Gameloft's TV Show King.

Nintendo said it would add new games to WiiWare each Monday.

Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed

I believe college students are becoming more aware that what they are being taught is more theory then science in a lot of cases. It appears Ben Stein is advocating for presenting the evidence and letting the intelligent community arrive at the appropriate conclusion. It would be a shame if we squelch good science just because it doesn't support the current paradigm of the scientific elite. I think we might have seen something like that happen in other places where freedom is non-existent. There are a lot of dictators who have tried that. Look out - society is pretty resistant. Enjoy!

I find the premise of this movie very interesting. I am amazed at the resistance to having a variety of intellectual viewpoints on a college campus. I thought that was what college campuses were all about. I am surprised at the responses in this trailer by the "Evolutionists." Aren't these the same people (aka the modern intelligencia) who told us to have open minds? I am in for quite a weekend - Friday night debate between Michael Shermer and Denish D'Souza and Saturday premiere of Expelled. That might be intellectual overload.

Web Worker Daily » Archive GroupTweet Enhances Twitter «

One of the persistent complaints about Twitter is that it doesn’t
offer any sort of “group” functionality: messages from everyone you
follow come in as a big heap, and anything you say goes to all of your
followers. GroupTweet provides a solution for the second half of this complaint, by layering distribution groups on top of Twitter.

Using GroupTweet is simple: create a separate account on Twitter for
your group, and have everyone in your group follow that account. Then
whenever that account gets a direct message, it pushes it back out for
everyone to see. I expect to be using this to share statuses among some
distributed teams I’m working with.

Watch reminds you of your own mortality

Crosspost from Geek.com


Just in case you forgot the Grim Reaper has an appointment with you in the future, there is a new watch that never lets you neglect that little fact. While the concept may seem a little morbid, the idea is to remind the wearer that life is short and you should take the time to smell the roses while you are still here.

The watch is called The Accurate and is designed by Crispin Jones. While looking like most analog watches, the thing that sets this timepiece apart is the hands of the watch. The hour hand reads “remember” while the minute hand displays “you will die”. The face of the watch is also mirrored so that your image is reflected while you look at the time. This is apparently so you can’t deny who the mortality message is aimed for.

Priced at $145 dollars, The Accurate comes with a 12 month guarantee from defects. Unfortunately, life holds no such guarantee which I guess goes back to the message The Accurate watch conveys.
