A. Whitney Brown: I Support The Troops (YouTube)
Now this guy I miss.
Lair (Dubious Quality)
Hilarious dissection of just how awful Lair is. Barely makes it past the first half-hour.
Ways in Which iTunes�s Just-Released Official Ringtone Support Is Weird, Rude, and/or Just Plain Buggy (Daring Fireball)
The new Create Ringtones feature in iTunes is pretty much the worst thing Apple's ever done. Fantastic, lengthy follow-up here. Apple has to fix this one right away, although I suspect it's AT&T holding their feet to the fire anyway. It is asinine and old-world to have the iPhone's iTunes not be able to play any damn song as a ringtone.
Kathy Griffin's Jesus remark cut from Emmy show (Yahoo News)
A comedian tells Jesus to suck it and that's instantly cut, but we'll still have to hear piles of brainless celebs thank God, Jesus and Whoever for their little statues in all seriousness, no matter who that might offend. Just goes to prove how the religious still wield ultimate control in the US.
Eating less meat may slow climate change (Yahoo News)
Because we'll have fewer animal farts. Serious.
Pokemon GTS
Nintendo's site that tracks pokemon trading. Crazily over-detailed. I could watch this all day.
First Namco's website quietly displays Wii and PS3 versions of supposed 360 exclusive Beautiful Katamari, then just as quietly deletes the "leak". (Kotaku)
I still say that new Katamari games are coming to Wii and PS3 because the franchise is gold money and the Xbox's audience could give two shits about it. As usual, the phrase "Only on Xbox" means nothing but "Microsoft paid a couple hundred to have us lie to you for a few months."
And what's with all the "Katamari sure is old and boring" talk I see out there? Get the fuck out of my house.
There are so many other ways of getting ringtones on an iPhone now, Apple's crappy implementation doesn't even matter. Heck, a simple command line tool I used with an AAC file took me all of 1 minute to get a Katamari ringtone.
