Streaming Netflix to your TV via a PC or an Xbox 360

For those that don’t know, early this year Netflix started offering movies from their library for downloading or streaming.  Currently there are over 12,000 movies and TV show box sets that you can watch instantly on your PC.  Of course, most people prefer to watch movies on their TV, which is where this blog post [...]

Xbox 360 Price Drops

Well, the rumors have been circulating for about a month now with a decent amount of evidence, but the final piece of evidence needed to convince me was a scan of an upcoming Radio Shack ad that listed the new 360 prices.  I think it’s save to say at this point that come Sept. 7, [...]

The Bigfoot Hoax

Well, it comes as no surprise to most that the alleged Bigfoot corpse that made headlines for the last couple weeks has turned out to be a hoax.  It seems extremely unlikely that a creature the size of Bigfoot living in regions populated by humans could have remained undiscovered all these years.  Shouldn’t we have [...]

Dropbox: New beta site offers free online file storage

A friend of mine sent me an invitation to Dropbox today, which is basically a site where you can store your digital files online for the convenience of accessing them from any computer in the world.  I’d heard a little about the site but hadn’t been actively seeking an invite like many seem to be [...]

400GB Blu-ray disc?

Long ago, before the HD-DVD and Blu-ray formats were even on the market, I predicted Blu-ray would be the eventual format winner.  It seemed like a no-brainer as the Playstation 3 was going to ship with a Blu-ray drive.  Those with long memories may recall that the Playstation 2 helped launch another disc format, the [...]

Hey I can do a mean "Bye, Bye, Bye" dance. Okay, so maybe it is more scary than mean. :D

You should talk to Pop Shop Online also and see if they have any banners or graphics they can send you. The banner spot is 160x600 pixels, by the way, also known as a "standard banner" in online advertising terms.

no i meant the pookie banner. I will talk to Doug, thx
At 12:30pm on July 11, 2008, Michael Costello said…
can you change the banner link to our webstore to something more engaging? For some reason even though it is clear what it is people don't seem to recognize the link ad. ANy thoughts?

Could you take a look a the gift card balance html I put on the main site. I tried using the same programing from the original website but this doesn't seem to be working right. I will forward you the e-mail from the gift card company. thanks

Edit the date to the current time and it will show up on top. If you edit it to a future time, it won't show up until that time, however.

is there a way to make my blog post on Free comic day stay at the top instead of simply republishing it?

An update on Carla and Lance

It’s Wednesday, which would typically mean Carla Hoffman’s The Fifth Color column would have been posted today if last week’s tragedy hadn’t occurred. Carla and her husband Lance suffered severe burns in the Tea Fire in the Santa Barbara, Calif. area last week. I want to say thanks to everyone who has commented [...]

One last poster (we swear!) for The Spirit

There appears to be some sort of competition between Warner Bros. and Lionsgate to see which studio can churn out the most posters for one movie. Warner Bros. is winning with Watchmen, but it’s not for lack of trying on Lionsgate’s part. Anyway, Cinematical has the roughly 173rd, and supposedly final, poster for Frank Miller’s adaptation [...]

Watch a Wolverine and the X-Men trailer

Marvel has released what I believe is the third trailer for Wolverine and the X-Men, the animated series set to debut Jan. 23 on Nicktoons. It looks surprisingly good — good enough that those tired of seeing Wolverine everywhere may overlook his front-and-center role in the cartoon. Hey, how else are they to capitalize on that [...]

Yes, he has! No, he hasn’t!

Despite claims to the contrary, writer James Robinson apparently hasn’t quit DC Comics’ Superman books. On Monday Rich Johnston reported that he understood Robinson had left the titles, “and the DCU in general,” after an argument with Executive Editor Dan DiDio. But yesterday editor Matt Idelson told the Superman Homepage fan site that Robinson has not quit. I [...]

They fought the market; the market won

Last week Executive Editor Dan DiDio revealed that DC Comics is canceling Blue Beetle, a move made official on Monday with the release of February solicitations. Not to be outdone, Marvel on Tuesday announced the cancellation of She-Hulk. Again. But at least the publisher did so with humor: “She’s been savage. She’s been sensational. She’s been [...]

J. Michael Straczynski: Origin of a Writer
