Free Dr. Pepper!

No, not from me. Dr. Pepper and Guns N' Roses are offering every American citizen the opportunity to receive a FREE Dr. Pepper to celebrate the release of GNR's 14 years in the making album, Chinese Democracy!

What will this mean for us? Well, free Dr. Pepper, of course! What will this mean for Dr. Pepper? It could mean many things. Are they in over their heads? Or will they get lucky and have a poor turnout for the coupons?

Well, remember to sign up at Dr. Pepper's Website November 23!

The Internet: How Will We Ship It To Mars?

The internet is such a large place. You can get Internets from nearly every place in the world (especially if you have a cellphone)!

No one has covered how we will get internets when we colonize Mars. Will it have its own Internets with its own TLD (ex .com, .net, .us, .ca)? Will Google have to register Google.mar? How will we play Online games with our Martian bretheren?

If you've heard about the Mars Spacecraft, Phoenix, you might know that it takes at least 1½ hours for a data transmission to reach the planet. That would cause horrendous lag, and it might be days before you can even check your e-mail! Down here on Earth, latency (or, time it takes to send and recieve a packet of data) is anywhere from 5 to 100 milliseconds, a far cry from the 5,400,000 milliseconds it takes to transmit data to Mars. 

How do we fix this problem? Well, as of now, we haven't developed the technology. NASA still uses the old radio communication system that has been in place for years. Even if the technology had been developed, it would likely be nowhere near mature enough to connect two planets to the internet!

What do you guys propose we do?

Mario Kart

Which Mario Kart did you think was the best?

IMO, Mario Kart DS was the best in the series.

Clash of the Video Game Consoles

I know, I know. Old topic. Already been done. Blah blah blah. However, this must be done, for great justice.

Dare I ask, what is your favorite video game console? Old or new, past or present, it's all good.

My favorite would have to be Wii. It is backwards compatible with all Gamecube games. Despite its poor performance in sales, it had a fantastic library, and the Wii just contributes to its legacy. The Wii adds online gaming (albeit, very poorly), the ability to download past games from the NES up to the N64, and even online Web Browsing through the best browser in existance, Opera. But that's a post for another time.

So now I repeat myself. What is your favorite video game console?

The Beginning of a New Era in Blogging

Yes, I made a blog, whoooo!

K, so anyways. I have an important PSA for you guys. This YouTube video will explain it all.

I'm sorry it had to happen that way. But enough being a noob, let's get down to business. This is just an introductory post, I will be posting a new post soon.
