You’re doing it wrong.

First, you’re pointing it in a questionable direction.
Second, what is that black excuse for glass doing there?!

Why Mr. T?

Snickers was one thing, but infomercials??? He’s wearing an apron!

image

Whoa. The end of the world?

Okay, maybe a bit far, but as of right now (and ten minutes ago). Nothing from Microsoft online is working. I mean, nothing. Okay, so NineMSN works, but that’s Australia. Xbox Live is down, as is Windows Live (Mail, Messenger and Mesh), Microsoft.com, Xbox.com, Zune.net, MSN.com. ARGH! What is happening???
This is really strange and also worrying. Someone trip over a cord somewhere?
COME BACK MICROSOFT.

Update: 1.17am, everything is back to normal (went down at 1am btw). Scary.

WHOA! Go Channel Seven!

Yay! Seven is doing something good in digital TV. For the first time tonight, when whoever controls the local ‘7 Toowoomba’ watermark went home for the evening (as they always do) and it crossed over to the state (maybe national?) watermark, it was very pleasing what I saw!

Look! It’s not even the HD channel! But it’s the 7 logo (with added ‘digital’ text) outside of the 4:3 safe area. YAY!!! It’s where it should be for 16:9, and in fact where it should be for all digital TV.
Well done Seven!

O/T: How lame are those infomercials? Ah…
