Today's App is Mighty Grocery shopping list.

I love to see this app, just because I do have a shopping App, but it does not have this functionality and I love that one.  This one scans barcodes to add to the list, has isle information, takes items more than grocries and even more awesome ability to store your lists on the cloud drive!

Good stuff... Pick up this FREE app today and organize your lists!

Obama reveals ID Plan as I read the plan that the US plans to take over the Internet (thanks to Jesse Ventura).

"Control of space and cyberspace. Much as control of the high seas – and the protection of international commerce – defined global powers in the past, so will control of the new “international commons” be a key to world power in the future. An America incapable of protecting its interests or that of its allies in space or the “infosphere” will find it difficult to exert global political leadership." PNAC - Rebuilding America's Defences: Strategies and resources for a new century. (Page 51 - 63 of PDF - http://www.newamericancentury.org/RebuildingAmericasDefenses.pdf)

This is really spooky as when I was reading it Jesse Ventura commented prior that they were planning for an Iternet ID, which was also anounced right after I got done reading it!  Talk about timely.  As Jesse Ventura mentions also that this has the potential to be 'good' but with Homeland Secuirity working with it... I have my doubts also.  So read the document, read the Internet ID info and see what you think!

For even more inportant things go get Jesse Ventura's Book!

Amazon App of The Day: Pew pew 2 (game)

Today's app of the day is Pew pew 2 this game is a basic game of astroid style but with hostile polygons and shapes instead.  If you play 360 then it's just like Geometry Wars. It's a fun little game to jump into.   I'm getting it as I always need some simple quick fun, so I can only partially kill my OG Droid then not be disappointed becouse I can't keep on playing my story!

Amazon App of The Day: Zenonia 2

Today we have another game on the Amazon App Store for free while its normally $4.99.

I have only been able to play it for 15 minutes so far but looks to be totally worth the time! Just for quick info if you don't like the style of game its a top down 'hack and slash' RPG similar to games like Secret of Mana, or you could even say Diablo as it has a skill tree and point assignments.

Seems worth the download of you want something good to play on droid and want some complexity to it!

Amazon App of The Day: WoframAlpha

Today's app is interesting, ask a question and get the answer.   Get over to amazon.com/appstore and check it out.

This looks like an excellent app for getting answers to school and science questions.   If in school I'd for sure check it out.   I am getting it as I am scientific minded.

Amazon App of The Day

I thought it would be great to touch on the amazing free app of the day from Amazon App Store.   Not only is it FREE but the apps they offer are marked down for the day and normally cost!  Quite a few people are missing this and I love good deals so thought I'd share as I can!

Go get the app store at http://amazon.com/appstore if you don't have it.   You do have to share a payment method but it's worth it for these nice goodies!

Today is the Angry Birds Rio (AD Free).   If you want a cool simple addictive game and have not tried the Angry Bird Series your missing out!   This is the best of the Series so far, based loosely off the new Rio movie the Angry Birds jump in to save the birds that got captured and taken to Rio.   They seem to have improved the physics and made improvement in the art in Rio.

If you haven't played Angry Birds at all yet it's a fun quick game where you use a slingshot to shoot birds at towers and knock them down with sweet physics.

Go to the Amazon App store and try it today!

God Mode on Windows 7!

I got the tip from CNet being Digged.  If you have Windows 7 and like to tweak your settings the way you prefer Try God Mode.  Make a new folder somewhere and rename it - "GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}" it will become a "God Mode" icon and allow many options to be tweaked.

I tried it and it worked, really cool.  I hate trying to dig up all my settings to make it better. Good tip for you using Windows 7 and want quick access to the settings.

Droids released today!

Wow, Verizon just got decent phones! Not only decent, but looks to be some of the best! I picked up the full motorolla Droid. Its really useful and can do everything I couldnt in my Non-PDA phones they did have.

So far seems as it delivers like the site says (droiddoes.com) everything an Iphone can do and better!

Worst thing I've seen yet is the keyboard layout. A few say its too tight and hard to type on. Its kinda pokey, but cool with me. Kevin Perriera (G4TV) said he hated the directional pad combined with the touch screen. Thats silly in my opinion though... sometimes I have no way I can touch some spots on the screen, but I can select it with the pad w/o restriction! I like it alot!

Dissadia Review

Review of Dissadia - PSP

It started with a game called Ehrgeiz... As shown above.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ehrgeiz)

Ehrgiz is a Squaresoft fighter that went terribly bad. It was great that you could be heros/bad guys from the Final Fantasy franchise. This is the continuation of that almost... lacking the Terrible content for most part.

Game: Dissadia
System: PSP
Rating: 9/10
Replay Value: High
Collection Recommendation: MUST Buy

What is it?
Dissadia is SquareSoft's version of a Fighter/RPG. This time starring the who whole cast of Final Fantasy Heros and their Arch Villains. This is both done in Story as well as Ad-Hoc VS with other players. If you like Final Fantasy and action games you'll quite possibly like this, those who don't like level repetition won't be so happy.

Play/Control
The controll in this game takes a minute to get used to. At first I thought it was going to be terrible but I quickly got a hold of it and it ended up being pretty epic. Some areas get brutal and take a bit to actually win at, but this dosen't seem to be an issue since if you did quit, you maintain the same level that you were at and every fight adds to your XP and Level.

I personally don't prefer it but there was also the option to turn your controls to those like FFX where you choose moves but its live. "Command Mode" as they call it.

Multiplayer
The multi-player is cool for what I've seen of it. Unfortunately you have to find someone who has the game or battle player 'cards' which you do receive from the Moogles of the game but their crazy levels that are hard to even beat for awhile! Although it does come with cool features so that in the random chance that this game is really 'awesome' where you are you can walk around and when your PSP finds other PSPs that have the game running you'll swap cards!!

When is this supposed to happen though? I can't go ONLINE? What? That upset me.

Replayability

This is interesting because the Online kinda impacts this. Being Ad-Hoc only, I play less.... Though the game play is fun enough to compell you to keep playing. I can especially see this if you have friends that play. Like the other Final Fantasy RPGs you have an ever expanding skill list of really nice moves. They add all kinds of stuff you can unlock, alternate outfits, weapons, extra skill days. Many battles are really EPIC and cool, they have glowing rails that you can ride on, this makes it even better, so it preforms like fights in Advert Children. Then to step that up to the next level you can Record fights in AVI so you can post them online! I haven't seen yet how far Characters go, but looks like you could keep playing for quite awhile. To build on all that they also set up a Calender for those skill days and your favorite day of the week which compound your earnings and experience. :D Sounds like enough if I don't time to play it, to do a couple battles on Saturday to make up for it. I only know one person who has it currenly but I want to see how battles go with other 'friend cards', for their supposed to adapt and fight similar to the person you achieved it from.

Drama Pieces

If you want to know what makes this 9/10 other than no ONLINE, it would be this. Do you want to see your favorite Final Fantasy characters sob, cry, and be depressed more than ever, this is your chance. I couldn't stand the Drama Peices... they looked great they just made nothing into drama and like other FF stories the story is hard to grasp. Really cheesy and annoying. They also take up alot of time... one being played every time you beat the game. (FROM FF1-FF12 - Twelve times!)

Want Ububtu without the hassle?

Wow, I wanted the new 9.04 Ubuntu (Linux) thats coming out, so I grabbed the "Release Candidate" and of course as every other time I tried to install Linux for most part I had bad luck. I have now two, Linux coasters if someone is interested! lol... anyway knew there would be a way. So I looked around a bit and found WUBI (http://wubi-installer.org/) and nice! It removes the hassle of installing linux and doing all the partitioning. Its easy to uninstall if you change your mind later.

Now I have a great new copy of Ubuntu on my laptop! I love the open source goodness of Linux so I am excited. :D I haven't even really had to pop open the console, just once to set my Root pw info,but everythings running smooth without so far, now once I learn that I'll be good.

So if you ever wanted a easy way to get Linux to work or try it go check out - http://wubi-installer.org/

Nice! Good to see new Tesla information coming out!

Tesla says the Model S will get about 240 miles per charge [on lithium-ion batteries] while still offering "exceptional performance." Numbers being bandied about include 0–60 mph in less than 6 seconds. The Model S will have a base price of about $60,000 (versus the Roadster's $109,000 price tag).

"Penalties against possession of a drug should not be more damaging to an individual than the use of the drug itself; and where they are, they should be changed. Nowhere is this more clear than in the laws against possession of marihuana in private for personal use... Therefore, I support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marihuana." - Jimmy Carter, U.S. President

"I inhaled frequently. That was the point." - Barack Obama, U.S. President

With Amaya, you can manipulate rich Web pages containing forms, tables, and the most advanced features from XHTML. You can create and edit complex mathematical expressions and graphics within Web pages. You can style your documents using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

And its by the W3 so its all going to me correct valid code and I found a CSS editor, but that's all it was! Awesome!

PMS Buddy to help.

I guess pmsbuddy.com is here to help. ;D Can track like 5 women, then set it to remind you before Aunt Ruby arrives so you can be aware... get that extra stuff done, or be warned before you get a new one ripped.

Could be helpful... lol

Mega Man 9 Release - Console War Update.

Wow... In case someone didn't notice, Megan Man 9 is now out for the big 3.

I originally lost info on it and thought it would only be a Wii release. Then I was excited to see it come for 360 and PS3 on Wednesday.

I am really excited to see it, haven't ended up getting it yet, but its on that list.

Wii had brought us Super Mario RPG too, so its still in the running. I worry though how it will fare this fall... whats exciting coming to it? Better motion control?

Being 'hardcore' these days I am more looking for upcoming such as Gears of War II (so much it validates another $50 a year), Resistance II, and others. Also looking forward to Little Big Planet which is for my hardcore physics and design side! :D

Anyways its good to see Megaman 9 come out, but sadly would rather play it on PS3 so its loosing its grip on the console war. Its still my #2 choice.
