Evening Reading

So we had a little sillyness with the mail server today. We're pretty sure we didnt lose any but the thing is you cant ever really be certain. So like, if one of us won the international lottery and we just need to move that cash through some banks in Nigeria drop us a line. We'll of course cover the wire fees and deposits required.

- Skype about to start charging
- Here come the dual format BR/HDDVD players
- MS hosing small business owners
- How stars get hitched (nerd alert)
- Flying underwater is hot

Lastly, poor OJ.. kill a couple of people and they just never stop bugging you with legal stuff.

    Anyone know anything about the other Wii channels going live? The weather one is okay I guess, but I really could see a few cool stuff pop up if they got creative enough.

              PSST. I heard some shit goin' around that you might not have to pay for it. These are unreliable sources. Take it with a grain of salt. You've been warned.
