Wow, that was like how your tv works 101. We just bought a 1080 p and so this really helps. Plus we download movies and play them on our tv.

Very interesting indeed. I have long wondered what the difference was between all the different classes of output. I was in a TV store recently with my husband and he was very keen on buying an HD TV. i had no idea what he was talking about but didn't want to sound dumb so I stayed quiet. I snuck back home to do some reasearch on the net and found your site which was by far the most informative in the subject. Thank you.

Derek,
Thanks for explaining this - site had too much Flash to be useful.
I don't understand point either - why not simply join orgs directly?

Adobe Media Encoder, select the "deinterlace" option on the output tab and give the video 50 frames per second. Adobe then converts every field into a frame, as there are 2 fields per second you need 50 frames per second for a 25fps video. So in essence, you get a 50 "fake" progressive fps video instead of the usual 25 interlaced. The result of such a process is very smooth video, just as smooth as the source.

Why buy or download music when you have sites like Pandora?

Britney Spears - Hit me baby one more time - was the first single i ever bought.
Avril Lavigne - Let Go - was the first album i ever bough.

I do torrent some music but if Amazon has some decent albums for £3 i would buy it.

Excellent article - I never understood the difference between analogue and HD although there were plenty of times I pretended to - especially when trying to look knowledgeable when buying TVs with my girlfriend. Thanks for the education!

The fact that "cranking it" means 17 to you makes me sad. Seriously.

This rocks! Thanks for writing about us. The good news is, no one has to click your badge to earn money, it's all impressions-based. So just by having the badge up, you're earning donations (the more page views you get, the more money gets donated.) You are right about the application being self-sufficient, although we encourage people to switch up their Sponsors & Causes as much as they want. Several of our brands offer point multipliers, which will earn you 2, 3 or even 5x the amount of points for choosing them.

Thanks again, new friend!

I personally love the Tweetie for Mac OSX, but agree with you that Nambu is better for groups. If I were a better Twitter friend I would use that so I can keep up with everyone. But Tweetie is just so preeeeetty.

P.S. The ads are up now, I just noticed them today - http://twitpic.com/46n2u

I'm getting a MBP by June-ish, so I'll get my Leopard fix by then. And I can upgrade both the iMac and the MBP to SL when it comes out :D

Yay for TD!

Don't give in to Leopard right now. Snow Leopard (lots of details here) is due out sometime this year. :)

I use Tweetdeck and I love it, but multiple account support would be nice. And I'd love to try Tweetie, but it requires OSX Leopard. So I guess I'm sticking with Tweetdeck. :)

I ask them why they can’t do this for me. Privacy. I’m on the phone. I WANT YOU TO DO IT. I don’t care if you see the password; rahhh! They can’t send the new password mocospace.com to any other phone number either. They can’t send it to an e-mail. They pretty much suck at life. Oh, and the system is still being upgraded (10 MONTHS LATER).

very interesting information on hugs and handshakes discuss at large.Hugs are more personal. Hugs are warm. Also, some men don’t know how to shake hands. I know a few that try and crush my hand just because of their masculine physique.
