XBox Live Feature Request
I’m looking forward to 11/22/05. The XBox 360 looks great. The new XBox Live will have a lot of integration with the website. I’d like to see a photo sharing section where you can post in-game screenshots. Of course, this would require that most 360 games support screen capture and upload, but that sort of thing is no doubt all ready built in for debugging purposes.
TalkDigger plus RSS Reading Lists plus Aggregator equals?
TalkDigger(thanks lifehacker!) sounds great! Apparently, you can use it to find all references to a given url and get them back as an RSS Feed. If you could put a link to TalkDigger’s RSS results for each of your blog’s posts into an RSS Reading List and stuff that into an aggregator, you’d have a pretty pleasant tool for logging references to your site that would make it much easier to keep track of the conversation.
Revolution Controllers – TODAY!
Check out this video to see how you can play games TODAY using the same principles as the Revolution controller. The process is documented here and requires a Gyration Ultra mouse and an ASCII grip one handed PS1 controller.
Nintendo DS Wifi Status
More great news from Stephen Stair! After suffering the setback of having to write his own IP stack, it looks like homebrew Wifi is back on track!! Between this project and the upcoming Wifi/Internet-enabled Mario Kart, Tony Hawk and Animal Crossing games, I’m really jazzed about my DS. My daughter is really into Nintendogs, though, and I hope I can get some time with it when these hit.
