Video After the break

The Weather Channel is a great way to enjoy television as background noise, excluding the primetime shows they now have.  You get to know what is going to happen outside to plan your day, but more importantly, you get to listen to some smooth jazz.  In case you have never seen it, check out TWC music to get a feel for what you are missing out on.

While this is nothing new, the other day I happened upon the weather channel to be treated to the sounds of the theme to Jaws.  As I sat there thinking about how great it was that someone sitting around in the office at the weather channel decided in their great wisdom to choose this track, my mind was brought to just who picks out these songs.

Then it hit me, why not let the people decide.  They really ought to allow users to vote on their website for what songs to play when or at least what songs will play for the next month.  Features similar to this are available on some new music websites such as: pandora.com, last.fm, lala, and lastly a site called stereo8.  Stereo8 allows users to do exactly this, but the site doesn’t seem to be doing too well so far.  TWC would have the means to deliver the music while also revitalizing their broadcast.  I realize this would never work with how TWC music really works, its really more of a glorified commercial, see weatherchannelmusic.com I just think it would a be a cool way to revitalize something that with the world of instant information for weather is becoming antiquated and unnecessary.

Anyways, just something I think would be neat.

I've uploaded a whole bunch of my older artwork, mostly stuff done in photoshop.  I make no claims that any of the work is any good.  I also did most of this just for fun in free time. Click Here to see

The Left 4 Dead 2 demo was released tonight, so I decided to take some screenshots to share.  Enjoy.

edit: I've added some comments, pardon any typos.

So, finally broke down and decided to set this up.  I was not planning to use wordpress, but the daunting task of a number of other methods to publish this were too much for me.  Not quite sure about how it looks but I like the direction.  I think the layout is close to what I want.  I'm not going to promise too many updates for now, but when I'm inspired I hope to be posting more often.  I have also decided to set some rules for myself.

Blog Rules:

-Minimum 50% original Content.

-Post minimum 2x week whether regardless of medium.

-Improve site whenever possible
