When you need something to talk about…

This is the blog that brings to you the best conversation topics to chat about tonight and through the weekend. Read the headline, my comments and follow through the the story. Now you know the rules, let’s get started:

- Kinect and Move: motion control expanding beyond the Wii. I don’t know about you but I’m a more than a little excited about playing some games without fumbling with controllers. I never could figure out whether to punch the A, B L2 button, or whatever it might be. Games that use the keyboard to move and shoot are just as bad for me, unlearnable. But I might make a great “human controller”. LOL. Kinect and Move might just get me in the game again, after all, Wii bowling only takes you so far.

- Apple’s iPhone4. Does anyone else see the growing storm that starts with a computer maker that sells more music, phone and ebook readers (under various guises) than computers could bring to humanity? Am I the last calm voice that sees the control that is being handed over by the plebes?

- The Big Bang Followed by The Big Wheeze - The astrophysicists have figured it all out: 13.7 billion years ago (+/- 2%) is when this whole thing started. And if you want to appear intelligent, you’ll read this article and learn something, even if it isn’t all figured out yet.

- Goose with arrow in neck evades capture again. With pictures. This is one of those stories that you have to read (and see) to believe.

Have a great weekend!
