New Search Engine Fail

Todd — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 18:47:58 +0000

I’ve seen a lot of hype online in the last 24 hours about a new search engine called Cuil.com. They suppose to have a huge number of web pages indexed. However, performing a simple search for “fillingim” returns ZERO results. Google returns about 50,000 results for the same search. So, if you’re looking for my site, stick with Google.

Commercials That I Will Watch

Now, I love my DVR and dont’ watch too many commercials any more but tonight I was watching some Discovery Channel and saw a commercial that I really liked. The song is good and the editing is right on.

The song is “Ain’t Nothing Wrong With That” by Robert Randolph and The Family Band.

And while I’m posting Discovery Channel commercials, here’s another good one.

I’m pretty sure I’m right in the middle of the target demographic for the Discovery Channel, but I think they’ve really put some good stuff on TV lately.

Hooray for HD

I haven’t posted here is a while. Wedding plans are moving at a considerable pace. There are decisions every day.

This weekend we watched our first Blu-Ray movie. I was pretty impressed. The quality is exceptional. This is definetly the way to watch movies at home. I really can’t tell a difference between 720p from the satellite receiver and 1080p from the PS3, though, but the picture looks amazing.

Also, I’m impressed that NetFlix is allowing me to rent Blu-Ray movies for the same price as regular DVD’s. I hope they do not raise thier prices. If they keep prices the same, NetFlix is the best way I’ve found to get Blu-Ray movies. Blockbuster and Movie Gallery don’t yet have many movies in the stores and I don’t wany to buy a $30 disc just to watch a movie once. Netflix only has a few hundred movies in the Blu-Ray format, but that will get better all the time.
