YouTube Annotations

YouTube has added support for annotations on their videos, so I have taken the liberty of annotating my BF2 video of me and my bro kicking some ass online.

Check it out! It is really easy to do, and I think adds a lot of value. However something very annoying is that these annotations do not seem to show up when the video is embedded in an external site, so you will have to take a look at the YouTube site directly:

Finished GTA IV

I finished GTA IV last night, and it was a little shorter than I thought it would be at that point, but I was satisfied that after the single player campaign was over I was still able to enjoy some multiplayer action.

I'm working on a new language training website, which is progressing slowly: idontlikepocky.com

And I am neglecting my dishes and laundry.

Work has been very busy recently, end of quarter is nearing and there is a lot of pressure to get accomplish all of our goals within the next 2 weeks.

Grand Theft Auto IV

If you are not a gamer, or you have been lost in the amazon and only recently been discovered by a passing helicopter, you may not have heard of the newest installment in the GTA series: Grand Theft Auto IV.

This time everything great about the previous games have been included but at a larger scale. For example the always amazing soundtrack in the GTA series has reached new heights at 214 songs in total - details on how this came to be here. In fact it was so good that I ended up buying a couple albums off iTunes. And very importantly the previous shortcomings have been addressed, i.e. the aiming system is no longer broken.

I have been having a fairly good time with it so far; running amok in Liberty City is great fun.

There is an interesting quick (4 minute) take on it here by the famous Australian, Yahtzee.
