2008 is Nearly Over and we ask what do You Want?

New Year's Fireworks

2008 has really been a true testament to this StuffWeLike. We literally ran into every type of issue a website can. While we continue to cover everything that we like, we want to know what you want us to cover. 2009 is a brand-new beginning and we want to start on the right foot.

Do you want to see more news, reviews, or web videos?
Do you want to see more review based videos or fictional videos?
Do you want to see a layout for the website?
Do you want us to stop asking questions?

If you answered yes to all the above questions, you did not clearly read them.

We sincerely want to know, please leave us a comment below.

Thanks and have a great New Year!

Ford Fusion Hybrid 2010

If there has ever been a stigma against American made cars, it’s that they aren’t fuel efficient. It looks like Ford is aiming to reshape that image with its new 2010 Fusion Hybrid.

Ford Fusion Hybrid 2010

It is now officially America’s most fuel efficient mid-size car with a certified 41 mpg rating in the city and 36 mpg on the highway. It topped the Toyota Camry hybrid by 8 mpg in the city and 2 mpg on the highway. It also beat the even smaller Honda Civic Hybrid by 1 mpg. While that may appear to be a small amount, it adds up in the long run.

Ford’s Fusion Hybrid can travel up to 47 miles per hour on electric power alone.

Commercial Outer Space Living

Spaceport America

When you’ve got the US Federal Aviation Administration green lighting the first ever commercial spaceport operation, you know it’s big news. The FAA approved Spaceport America’s request to vertically and horizontally launch into space.

Now it’s as “simple” as building the spacestation, which is said to begin in the first quarter of 2009. Spaceport America hopes to have the terminal and hangar facility completed by late 2010.

In order to get to the spacestation, space cadets will fly on Virgin Galactic. In the past, those Galactic tickets have cost $200,000.

Michelle Obama’s $30,000 ring

All hail the $30,000 ring! According to The Daily Mail, the new First Lady will be receiving one major present this year. Barack Obama is giving this present as a ‘thank you’ for her support during the election. This Harmony ring is made of one the most expensive metals in the world, rhodium.

According to AOL, the Obama Press Office has gone off saying that this news piece is not true.

The question is who do you believe? Is this Obama’s first cover up as newly-elected President of the U.S. of A.?

Either way, this ring is stuff that we like.

Weekly Mashup #1

We’re testing out a new series that is more talk-show centric. Yes, it’s not just me on camera anymore! Wow what a concept.

Ian Dawson co-hosts. Now you’ll finally be able to meet the man behind many of the recent reviews on the blog.

Since this is a ‘mashup’ show we’re mixing in multiple products and reviewing them on the fly.

Let us know if this format entertains you more than the previous, single product video review. We probably won’t totally eliminate the single product video review. It’ll be something that goes hand in hand with each other.

On our first episode we review:
You’re Not Elected Charlie Brown – DVD
Sleeping Beauty Platinum Edition – DVD
Lego Batman – Xbox 360
Gamer Grub – Food
