ActRaiser
So I finally found out what that game I had forgotten the name of that I played many moons ago when my my sister had a SNES was called: ActRaiser. Turns out that it has been released on Virtual Console for the Wii now and there is a mobile version too.

Pirates of Silicon Valley
Just finished watching this film… awesome! Something I had intended to watch for some time but just hadn’t got round to. According to what I have read about Apple the film is pretty spot on, other than a few factual skips to aid the pace of the narrative this film gives a very accurate (if a little over dramatised) look into the rise of Apple and Steve Jobs.

Jigoku Shoujo
Just started watching the awesomeness that is Jigoku Shoujo [地獄少女] (Hell Girl). As always I am a bit behind the times on the anime scene, I am currently watching season 1 but a season 2 and a live action version have already been released in Japan.  Season 1 has been licensed (and *shudders* dubbed) for western released by Funimation: http://www.funimation.com/hellgirl/

Yuko Otacast 0.3: The Fail Show
So we managed to create… something yesterday. Despite failing almost entirely we actually ended up prodcuing a fairly cool show, sound quality is bad due to Skype, but other than that it came out kinda alright… Download Nao! http://ukotaku.podbean.com/2008/03/30/yuko-otacast-show-02-beta/

No recording today...
Just woke up to find out that we can not record the show today as the recording space is not available to us… Thus making today an epic fail. However I intend to salvage some win from the situation by recording a short show with Skype at some point over the weekend. I will try to get something online by Monday…
