Before you stands my new Xbox Live Avatar. Not really sure what his purpose is, but he stands here none the less. I was sorta disappointed in the eye and hair choices so my little man is rockin the pompadour and a pair of shades. Anywho you can grab an image of your own Xbox live avatar by going to either

or just cut out the middle man and go to

The first new Microsoft ad, featuring the comic duo of Jerry Seinfeld & Bill Gates, is out.
First Seinfeld Gates Ad
Not really sure what to say about it.
Apparently now that Microsoft has finished working on the Microsoft Surface they’re gonna work on baked goods?

You know Notepad? The basic text editor that has been part of Windows since 1.0
Turns out it has some hidden functionality!
Journal Functionality
Open Notepade
Type “.LOG” without the quotes then hit enter.
Now save the document.
Close the document.
Reopen the document.
Pretty cool, no? Now everytime you open the document it will put a timestamp at the end.
You can also put down a new time stamp by pressing F5.

Great little video game. Plays like asteroids and making a tye dye shirt while listening to techno. You need to play it to understand.

Neat little open source Text File Encryption program. Doesn’t install anything so I’ll try it out on the key fob for awhile.
Just double click the file and put in the password then it shows up like notepad.
