You Ruined Everything

If I ever wanted children - which I don't - and if I ever created a slideshow of pictures of my creepy little baby - which I won't - this would totally be the background music.

Leave it Jonathan Coulton to come up with a song like this that I actually like.

Falling Behind

The next iteration of the Xbox needs to materialize soon.

The PS3, flawed gaming system that it is, is currently the cheapest and most versatile blu-ray player you can find.  Then there's the Wii, which for all its shortcomings, is a fun little novelty and still offers a very usable and (for the Wii) sophisticated web browser.

Now that HD-DVD has been officially pronounced dead and the Xbox 360 still lacks a worthwhile internet browser, the 360 finds itself behind the pack in everything but gaming.  For a console that was touted as being the home's all-in-one entertainment center, it's disappointing to find it becoming anything but.

As a sidenote: Third party applications such as MCEBrowser that are available for use on the 360 make internet browsing possible, just not practical.  Frustrating to use at best, it's a poor substitute for functionality that should have been included from the start in a console distributed by the makers of the world's most popular internet browser.
