Austin startup LifeSize claims to have a 720p videoconferencing system. It's hard to imagine how they squeeze the extra resolution out of the same H.264 spec that their competitors use, unless there's some simple but non-obvious tradeoff.

Latest media stunt: hot girl-on-girl
gridiron action! 12/03/2003 02:38 PM
This Super Bowl halftime, make it to the Lingere Bowl. American TV hits a new low by inventing another sport along the lines of Foxy Boxing and Hot Oil Wrestling. The gridiron action features Team Dream vs. Team Euphoria (featuring washed-up former NFL players as coaches) in full contact football while wearing skimpy clothing. Even weirder, but there will be cheerleaders to cheerlead the players that are already dolled up to look like cheerleaders in some sort of subtle hot lesbian action. It's all pay-per-view, but this "Girls Gone Football" seems more like a new low than a step forward for real women's sports.

Anime of Despair

Anime of Despair 03/23/2005 12:22 AM

I am not into sad movies but, if you are, you should watch Gra ve of the Fireflies, a japanese anime about two war orphans.It not only has a sad ending, but the anime starts with both of the orphans dead.  Just reading the storyline was enough for me to require tissues and a stiff drink.  I am a chicken when it comes to sad movies because they tend to crack me open like an oyster.

In response to the emergent faction of female anime fans in the US, Beckett Publications has recently released the f irst anime magazine targeted specifically for women. Aimed for the 12-20 year old female dynamic, Anime for Girls magazine features articles such as the “Top 5 Hottest Guys of Anime”, and the “Top 5 Anime Girls of Action”. Although this magazine may be a novelty in the US, the phenomenon is venerable in Japan, and is known as shoujo - anime/manga designated for girls.

Anime keychain drives

Anime keychain drives 07/22/2004 02:31 AM
Gizmodo has the scoop on a line of Gundam-branded USB keychain drives.

To appeal to the "maniacs" (Japanese for "someone who knows too much,") IO Data has included two features for collectors of the drives - and I'm not making this up - by installing the included "Cute" software, your desktop wallpaper will automatically change to a corresponding Gundam wallpaper. When you take it out, it will go back to normal. The second feature is the screensaver, which when you purchase and use more than one of these drives, will add the respective characters to the ensuing action. You too can engage in intergalactic space combat for about $55 USD for a USB 2.0 mecha, or $45 for a USB 1.1 mecha.

Thanks to Tyler and Mohammed and everybody else that sent in pictures of these am3 Anime Vending machines for the Advance Movie player. I'm fairly sure that eh one of the left (the Pokemon-branded one) is the newer model, while the one on the right is the older, less full-featured model that has been out for a while. I love that in an all-digital machine, they've somehow still found it necessary to incorporate a giant crank dial on the front.

Cute Puzzle

Cute Puzzle 03/11/2003 09:44 AM

I saw this puzzle linked to here. Go play with it and then you can see how it works.

Basically what it asks you to do always produces a number that is a multiple of 9, which can be proven easily.

z = (10*x + y) - (x + y)
z = (10*x - x) + (y - y)
z = 9*x

So the puzzle functions by just placing the same symbol at each multiple of 9. Still, it's a cute trick, since the puzzle actually changes the symbol when you reload it. :)

am3 Sets Up Anime Vending Machines for
Game Boy Advance 07/07/2004 12:46 PM

Japanese company am3 has set up anime vending machines in 20 locations around the country in test program to sell content for its moderately succesful 'Advance Movie' peripheral for Nintendo's Game Boy Advance. Different from the Game Boy Advance Video cartridges available here, the Advance Movie uses a rewriteable Smart Media card, which consumers can fill up with movies that cost between 100 (~$1) and 400 yen(~$4), depending on their content (and presumably length). So far all the titles are anime, but there's nothing stopping other types of programs to be sold. In fact, am3 is already planning to sell data for four other peripherals it sells; Advance Comic, for manga viewing; Advance Picture, for images; Advance Music, for durrrrr; and Advance Navi, for maps.

Why they can't just have one peripheral that does all those things, I don't know. Oh, and if any of our Japanese readers can snap a pic of the vending machines and send it to us, that'd be dandy.
