YouTube


Until just recently I'd been behind-the-times regarding YouTube.  All my computers were so old that they'd run internet video poorly and I rejected the notion that people in their rooms could be of any interest to me.  Fast forward to the day I get a new computer that can handle it and renewed is my interest in cheap, fast movie making.
It's a different beast for sure, but it's fully capable of bringing together an audience and launching careers.  The time and effort required to keep up with the content eaters out there is stressful, but rewarding if you have interesting material.
We, at 333half, made some horror trailers last year for Halloween.  They were short and silly clips of sci-fi madness and creepy retro scares.  I was particularly proud to see the view count for The Strangler, though the views were for reasons unintended.
This year we'll plan them out a bit better and hopefully launch a series of backlogged ideas that are begging to be made.  We're late to the YouTube party but the party is never the same without us.

Resident Evil


Well, the screenshot is old hat by now; Resident Evil 5 was released awhile back and most of my friends have already been there and done that.  I can't say that I'm particularly excited to join in the fun though; RE games haven't been scary since the remake on Gamecube.  Tank controls FTW.

The Hundreds


I visit The Hundreds often.  They're on my Google Reader list and they update a lot.  Bobby Hundreds, you're the man.
