Fallout may soon be making the big screen jump. Bethesda Softworks, the company behind the most recent Fallout game, Fallout 3 has registered a trademark, claiming the Fallout name for “entertainment services in the nature of an on-going television program” and in another filing, securing the trademark for “motion picture films about a post-nuclear apocalyptic world.”
I hope either or comes true. Fallout is such a great game, especially with all the new DLC content and next one coming out May 5th as well as Fallout New Vegas being announced the other day that will not be a sequel but still be in the same era.

Yahoo has posted a new Terminator Salvation Trailer and it is awesome! Click to watch in HD.
Here his a phone that could of been released many, many years ago before cell phones are now more widely used than home phones. If you ask me, this is just a waste of money unless you have the money to waste. Check out the Verizon Hub here.
What a hell of a great game! Both teams did amazing but in the end Steelers player Holmes had one hell of a catch to hopefully clinch the win and well, they did! They Steelers ended up winning Super Bowl 43, 27 to 23. I like both teams but in the end, I stuck with the Steelers and wanted them to win but it would still of been nice to see the Arizona Cardinals and Kurt Warner to win a Super Bowl too.
Commercials were so-so, I don’t enjoy them a whole lot but I also do not dislike them either. You can view these commercials at Hulu.com or NBC.com. I very muched liked the trailers shown during the commercials but I have already seen most of them anyways. The halftime show I enjoyed too and thought it was better than it has been in the last many years, nice job Bruce Springsteen.
This coming January, 2009, will be the last MacWorld Expo Event that Apple throws. Not only that, Steve Jobs will not even be there to attend the show and give us not only the last MacWorld Event, but the last time we see what is going to be coming out that day, next day or coming months.
First off, I understand that Apple is getting much bigger than they were years ago. They have many, many new stores now with more stores to open up. Also the fact that their website is much better and to buy from. So they no longer really need to get out to the world on what is new or going to be coming out and when. Especially with how many blogs there are today and newspapers that report on new Apple products and such.
Now, that being said. I am still sad to hear this is the last MacWorld. I have always enjoyed not only watching it when they come out (I have not watched them all..) but I have always been there to watch live blogger posting pictures and text of what Apple is announcing at the time for them being there. I do not think it would be such a big deal though for them to cancel it, if Steve Jobs would actually be attending the last one. You would only think he would do that for the Apple Fan Base. But I guess not.
Barack Obama won tonight with a landslide victory, latest polls as of this post show him winning 338 to 155. Amazing. Not only has history been made today but will be made yet again come January 20th, 2009 and for the next 4 years on that day.
Congratulations Barack Obama! Amazing job on the speech you gave the nation as well. You further more showed me that you are ready and experienced enough to be MY next President.
It appears that Homer Simpson’s attempt at voting for Barack Obama but instead the machine voting for McCain is becoming a reality. You can Digg the article here if you would like.
The article was written by Paul Nyden at the Charleston Gazette paper titled “Some early W.Va. voters angry over switched votes” saying that Jackson County, West Virgina touch-screens switched votes, 3 residents say. Read more about it if interested at the article link.
Today Apple introduced some awesome new or updated of their products or applications at their San Francisco event, Let’s Rock.
iTunes 8.0 was the first update to be introduced. A new feature ‘Genius’ was introduced. Which is just an awesome feature that I can not wait to play with. One part of it, is that it picks similar artists and songs related to what you are listening to that you may like that you do not own. It also will create a playlist for songs similar to what you’re playing that you may love too. I highly suggest checking this out and playing with it yourself! All of this information is sent to Apple anonymous, so there is no need to worry if you were.
Next, new iPod nanos! Yes, Kevin Rose got another thing right too. Not only did he first mention this and later iTunes 8.0 coming on his video rumor. The new iPod nano is very slick. Thank god they learned that no one liked the design they just came out with. They have a very nice design now, sporting a slightly bigger screen, too. New price is $149 for 8GB and $199 for 16GB. You will get 24 hours of music and 4 hours of video, typically. The Genius feature is included as well and can be used by simply pressing and holding the center button.
New in-hear headphones. They ship with 3 earbuds and have 2 drivers each, a subwoofer and tweeter. They will sell for $79.
Updated iPod Touch coming out! It will have the same display but also be even thinner. It will have a contoured stainless steel design (like the new iPod nano). They’ve integrated volume controls to the side now and now comes with a built-in speaker. Steve Jobs even mentions that it was hard for them to do that with the iPod Touch being even thinner now. App Store is now built in and of course, comes with Genius feature that is in iTunes 8.0.
Continuing with the iPod Touch, they enhanced the UI and better artwork on albums. They’ve built-in Nike+ now with the Touch. So the receiver is built-in but you will need the transmitter in your shoe. You will get around 36 hours while listening to music and 6 hours of watching video. The 8GB will sell for $229, 16GB for $299 and 32GB for $399.
iPhone firmware 2.1 was introduced. Steve Jobs says this is a big update and fixes lots of bugs. Fewer dropped calls, big battery life improvements and no crashes with Apps. Backing up is also faster too. This update will be free to all owners this Friday, September 12th, 2009.
That ends what was shown and talked about at this Apple Event minus some additional talking of statistics and such.
It’s official from Guiness World Records! Firefox 3.0 is now the most software downloaded in 24 hours! Also, as of this post, Firefox 3.0 has had ALMOST 30 million downloads since release.
