hello sheep.

i know we're washed up and i feel like a fraudulent embezzeler returning to spark unsolicited...maybe i feel guilty, maybe i am just very very guilty but i will try very hard to work on the blog and not let it gather moss.

save precious download bandwidth...

i discovered this a while ago...during my first year.now i know you can run a googy or wiki and find out about absolutely anything but i'd still like to share this nifty piece of information with you anyway.there are times when ,for some totally inane reason you might urge to download a youtube viral....hey who doesn't...well here is a remarkable tool that totally eliminates the need to do so by fetching it from your temporary internet folder....the secured hidden system files.
its called videocacheview....go here http://videocacheview.en.softonic.com/
videocacheview filters out all the flv files and other flash based content from your cached away temporary internet files and shows them in a neat detailed array...from where you can afford to paste them to your permanent harddrive for offline viewing...
so all you have to do ...
is look up your flv vid
let it stream...remember streaming is downloading...but in a volatile location
run videocacheview
select and paste it to your harddrive.

awaiting dante's inferno....

ever hit on the podcast button of your itunes library ...and wonder which zoned out nub actually downloads them...well i'm that person...and this is what i recently discovered...a trailer to electronic arts' very anticipated video game set to be burned on disks in 2010 for the PS3 console -Dante's inferno....it's loosely (read reinventively) based on Dante's poem that describes hell as a concentric noose on noose ladder envisaging various deadly sins...gluttony being one...(remember another poem inspired work of animation art...beowolf)...the game seems pretty interesting and by interesting i mean ,pratik- you should buy it when it releases and then call me....

there's another game that's very popular among whoever's ever dreamt of possessing the blade of Olympus...and slaying that son of a bitch zeus...hate zeus....so if you've played god of war 3 please write in and let us know how it is....sadly enough i haven't got hold of it or just check its trailer out..then we'll sigh in unison.
