A look at Microsoft's Kinect for the XBox 360 in Action

Xbox 360 250GB Console with KinectMicrosoft's Kinect technology for the XBox 360 is one of the most exciting addition to the gaming world. It uses motion technology to actually play the games, removing the need for a controller. This is how it is described on the xBox website:

Kinect brings games and entertainment to life in extraordinary new ways without using a controller. Imagine controlling movies and music with the wave of a hand or the sound of your voice. With Kinect, technology evaporates, letting the natural magic in all of us shine.
Controller-free gaming means full body play. Kinect responds to how you move. So if you have to kick, then kick. If you have to jump, then jump. You already know how to play. All you have to do now is to get off the couch.
This will revolutionize the way we play games. Instead of sitting in the couch, eating snacks, playing games and getting fat, we will be sweating while kicking, jumping, swiping and any other activity the games require.

Below is a CNET test video for the Kinect:

I Am Beginning To like Blogspot Says Joomla User

I am actually beginning to like Blogspot. Being used to more difficult blogging tools such as K2 Joomla, this is a breath of fresh air.

Blogger is easy to organize and Google Adsense integration is a cinch; throw in Amazon Associates and you have a nice little package with which you can make some extra money online, all free, courtesy of Google.

Back in the days when I first started using blogger, it was nothing like this.This Amazon integration is perfect. The search box is right next to the content so you can insert your Amazon image or text link anytime....cool!

By the way, I strongly recommend Joomla CMS if you want to 'graduate' from Blogspot and build a really professional CMS site that has a blog attached. If you want to have a really powerful eCommerce site or whatever kind of Content Management site, Joomla is really versatile. Drop in the K2 Module and you have a really powerful blog tool right there.
