See how essential you guys {Tina Wood and You} were to the G4TV television network? But, I can't really fuss much. It seems that you two are really making progress on on10...it'll just take some getting use to. On G4TV.com you were circulating topics around the gaming industry and the occassional subjects of technical product, projects, etc., but mainly in the gaming industry and now you're strictly technology?
But I have the upmost respect for you. And, yeah, I've noticed Star Trek, Star Trak 2.0, The Man Show, Fastlane, etc. The G4TV network is just going downhill and I now have on10 as my refuge. Alright. My luv to you.

Another 'episode' by me is up on 10

Ah, yes, correct. Unfortunately, the version of Atlas we used didn't yet have full support for Safari so the site will come up, but none of the XmlHttpRequests used for the AJAX calls will work (expanding comments, etc). We plan on putting in the newest version of Atlas, which should work in Safari in our end of April release. The same goes for forums (very end of April).

You don't know how tempted I was to put you lifting up your shirt as the preview image for the video. ;)

I basically view the site on my xp machine. I guess this site doesn't support Safari?

p.s. when's the message board going to be available?

Nope... although if your having a problem expanding comments you wouldn't be able to read mine... =)

Well just in case, I have a windows XP box running the latest incarnation of IE (i think) and have noticed that if you don't wait for all the objects to load on the page and click on a topic or scroll down. the video gets off centered and you are only able to open only a few comments before the page just ends up hanging on you. At that point i usually go to a different site and come back and it usually seems to resolve the issue (as long as i wait for it to completely load.) Also hitting refresh or ctrl+F5 once it's in the state of suspended animation doesn't seem to work. Funny how this is a MS site yet you can browse it better on FF than on IE... but then again it could just be my setup. who knows

Intel Mac...

djscratchex — Thu, 13 Apr 2006 13:02:42 GMT

Anyone else running one? I currently can't expand any of the comments on my Intel Mac as well as view any of the videos.

I love the fact that its an internet show because I can watch it whenever I want. Besides G4 has really gone downhill. the only decent shows left are Xplay and until recently AOTS. Cant watch it without Sarah and Brendan.

"not embarassed to lift up your shirt on camera." ... oh but I was embarassed... I just thought the strap was relevant... of course, watching it in the completed video I was really wishing I had suggested we put one on Tina, Laura ... or even Corey ... anyone else essentially.

Ah... Duncan of the Clan Mackenzie... yes, there is nothing like a good Scottish name to bring out a highlander reference... :)

Hmmm. Actually, I don't find his voice particularly soothing...so maybe it's just you. I like his segments, but I'll skip the one on paint flakyness. That's just a little too strange for me. ;)

Yes, I know I made a grammar mistake in my comment.

What I meant to say:

Try Playing a FPS on a treadmill!

Angela, thanks for the editing comments suggestion. I sure could use the editing feature.

Trying playing a FPS on a treadmill!

V360 — Thu, 13 Apr 2006 01:40:21 GMT

I'm sure Oblivion is keeping (some) people away from exercising (as well as possibly, keeping them away from the Sun, family, food and possibly, even work/school).

Actually, I think excerising, while playing FPS games (especially, online-multiplayer games) would really be interesting, because of the fast movements/reflexes involved. Playing Halo 2 on a treadmill...talk about a challenge.

Or instead of being on a treadmill, for example, just play DDR, or Yourself Fitness.

Re: Re: Look Here. Even cool gadgets won't get me to exercise.

Angela — Thu, 13 Apr 2006 01:12:57 GMT

Don't forget about the sensible diet.

What's wrong with Trek?

I know what you are saying! Can I use the "I don't really have time to Workout" excuse! I know, I know 20 minutes a day is all you need... ;-)

It's amazing the cool things you can get and use. I belive gadgets will be the next generation Web ...

I want more Duncan...

maxwell — Wed, 12 Apr 2006 19:47:15 GMT

Actually, am I the only that gets soothed by his voice or am I really strange? :D Seriously though, Duncan would have my attention even if he was talking about the flakyness of dry paint. Well... I´d at least listen. Cool stuff, you are quite the contrast to T&L.

Ok, I´m going to think about excercising for a few seconds now. :)

Re: Re: Why an "internet" television show??

Dengin — Wed, 12 Apr 2006 19:45:37 GMT

Now now, you know what they say about burning bridges...
Other than that, you're absolutely right, of course ;) I give X-Play and AOTS 3-4 months, tops. Poor Morgan, what will she do next? At least Sessler can teach philosophy or something like that. Kevin P, street hooker, no question.

If you hadn't noticed G4 is now The Man Show and Star Trek.....This is our new home :)
we like it here.

njcu — Wed, 12 Apr 2006 19:21:11 GMT

G4 used to be cool... Now G4 is dead to me... BESIDES!!! HAVEN'T YOU HEARD??? THIS IS THE NEXT TELEVISION ONLY BETTER!!! TV is soooooo yesterday.

I guess Dance Dance Revolution is as close as we are really going to get for the moment. But remember the game Yourself Fitness. It seemed fairly interesting. Im sure there are some people who have followed through with the game program and have lost some weight.

But seriously I will be honest the only excercise I get is when I run to the post office which is directly behind my house.

It is pretty inspiring to see that you go to the gym and were actually not embarassed to lift up your shirt on camera. Because even a microsoft salary couldn't get me to do that.
