X-Files 2 trailer

Sure it’s leaked and probably will be taken down, but it’s here! X-Files 2 the movie that fans have been waiting for, well maybe some fans have been waiting for this sequel. Honestly I can’t say whether or not this movie will be any good after seeing the trailer so judge for yourself and let me know what you think! X-Files 2 is coming out July 25, 2008.

Facebook Chat

Ladies and gentlemen, here we go the official death of AIM is here. For years millions have used AIM to chat with buddies, but now Facebook is entering the instant messaging market. TechCrunch did a screencast of the new web based service. We can only begin to imagine the possibilities that this new field will provide Facebook users. Facebook Chat will be made public within the next few weeks.

Myspace Applications are here and StuffWeLike Jumps on IT!

I’ve never been a huge fan of Myspace.com. Back when they first launched I didn’t understand the point of it. Social networking with all this random HTML code, I might as well be working on my own website! That’s at least how I got friends to visit StuffWeLike – want to talk to me, message me here.

My senior year of high school I joined the social networking crowd and I looking back it was silly for me not to have Myspace and Facebook accounts. In recent months, they have been made even more important to me because of their application capabilities. While we’ve had a Facebook application for months now, I’m proud to say we now have a Myspace application!

Both the Facebook and Myspace application feature our video player and all its goodness! Make sure to add it asap! 🙂

YouTube Goes High Def Video, but not HD

Yes great name YouTube! High definition that isn’t the high definition that we have come to know through our TV experiences. The good thing is that the videos do look much better! This YouTube high definition is definitely going to make videos viewing a much more pleasant experience.

One of the great things is that as a video producer, all I have to do is upload a video and two options will automatically be available to users – low and high quality playback! Make sure to go to your account and say that you always want high def video quality playback.

Joost Experiments with Live Video

Joost

I haven’t talked much about Joost on StuffWeLike. One of the reasons for that is that I don’t particular like their service. It has a crappy user interface with a catalog of videos that never seem to update, at least they never did when Joost first launched.

Today I received an email about testing Joost live video. It definitely caught my attention because it’s P2P live streaming video. On Thursday, March 13, at 2 p.m. EDT, 6 p.m. GMT public testing begins. Three simple steps and you can test their video:

1. Go to Joost.com and download the newest version of Joost.
Install it.

2. At 2 p.m. EDT (11 a.m. PDT, 6 p.m. GMT, 7 p.m. CET),
start Joost, and go to the Joost LIVE Test category.
Launch the Leiden LIVE P2P channel.

3. Start watching. (If you want, go to My Joost -> Channel Chat
to see who else is watching with you.)

This test will show video interviews with the people behind Live streaming video on Joost. If all goes well soon enough we may be able to watch live sports being broadcasted on Joost. Now that’d be tight.
