Well, I just burned an hour going through this site! If you grew up in the 80's you probably have one of these old stereos... I never could find mine but I don't think mine was from the "Golden Age"...I think mine was on the "Fall and Decline" page when companies started cranking out these Boom Boxes like McDonald's hamburgers... If you go back to the home page of this URL you can find a bunch more old techie junk... pretty interesting to say the least... Click the link below to take you there
The Golden Age of Ghetto Blasters
Just discovered this new freeware software that allows you to Live Stream video right from your camera phone to the internet... It's called Qik and works only with Symbian phones currently I believe... If you search the public videos from the past couple hours you'll find a few I posted after I first installed the program... (hint: me sitting on the couch watching TV...real exciting I know!) this program could have it's uses however....link after the break...
Click here to link to Qik.com...
I also can embed the video into my blog here, so if I wanted to have people see something I was seeing live... I embedded the video below but it will show the last public video I created if I'm not streaming live.... However if I am streaming something live then you will see it real time as you can see from my last video when I zoom in on my computer screen... this is really cool software... and it's free!
All the components of a Seelye family xmas dinner forever immortalized on the internet :-) This definitely made up for the crappy Thanksgiving dinner we had on the recent cruise we went on with my family over the holiday... My mom reminded me this weekend that I never posted anything about our cruise... If anyone's interested then leave me a comment to let me know your interested and I'm not wasting my time...
Well, if anyone is still reading this I figured I'd let everyone know why I haven't posted anything in a couple weeks...
1. Jodi and I have been sick as all get out...still not 100%...
2. Our lives are no more exciting than yours... lets not kid ourselves...
so what else? the typical holiday shopping season... although I have to say that we've been doing A LOT more shopping online and let me tell you it feels Goooooood :-) Like we need to expose ourselves to more sick people... I think not....
So on to my latest tech find on the internet...

you have to request to become a private member, but essentially it is a new service that allows you watch a whole bunch of your favorite TV shows and Movies right over the web. Pretty cool stuff as I just got invited to their private beta after about a month of waiting...
it's kind of like the Gmail thing when that first came out but unfortunately I don't have any invites to give out at this point. So essentially all I'm saying is if this sounds interesting to you then you should go and sign up so you can be invited in the near future...this is definitely the future of TV... especially with what the cable companies are charging these days...
So they have the latest shows on TV right now, as well as old classics such as this one which I know some of you will love:
and this one....
You just gotta love the internet :-) Enjoy!
