  1. The first-ever video advertisement will be published in a traditional paper magazine in September.

     

    Posted Image

     

    The video-in-print ads will appear in select copies of the US show business title Entertainment Weekly.

     

    The slim-line screens - around the size of a mobile phone display - also have rechargeable batteries.

     

    The chip technology used to store the video - described as similar to that used in singing greeting cards - is activated when the page is turned.

     

    Each chip can hold up to 40 minutes of video.

     

    The first clips will preview programmes from US TV network CBS and show adverts by the drinks company Pepsi.

     

    They will appear in 18 September editions of the magazine distributed in Los Angeles and New York.

     

    It's believed the new technology will cost much more than normal print ads.

     

    However, BBC correspondent Rajesh Mirchandani said that in an increasingly competitive market, advertisers have realised that it is more important than ever to create attention for their product.

     

    He likened the technology to the Daily Prophet - a newspaper with moving pictures described in the Harry Potter books.

     

    It is not the first time that publishers have experimented with digital technology in magazines.

     

    Last year, for example, men's lifestyle magazine Esquire published the first using e-ink technology, with a cover that flashed in alternating patterns.

     

    E-ink is the technology used in the Sony Reader and Amazon Kindle electronic books.

     

    Americhip, the developer of video-in-print, has also created magazine technology that appeals to various senses, including smell.


     

    one day all magazines will be video instead of pictures....


  2. They're more like game developers rather than computer companies..well at least some of the ones you listed up there areand you need way more companies in there. the world has changed! it is not 1998 anymore where only a few companes make video games..to name a few of the big ones your missing: Infinity Ward, Bio Ware, Valve, Pandemic (though they're now dead), Rockstar and alot more others!


  3. Hey guys. I actually got back into the Xisto spirit after I got my last Xisto email, so I decided to start up trap 17. The reason I quit last time was because I couldn't get my MYcents to work, but now they work quite well, and I'm looking foreward to free hosting and domains. I code in Visual Basic and a little bit of HTML and CSS. Cool. Okay, guess I'm wrapping up my introduction letter here.

    Cheers,

    Thejode.

    Hi thejode, welcome back :P and yes the mycent system is much better now. I remember it used to not update for 4,5days and now it updates within a couple hours:D
    anyway welcome back

  4. I have not read your post completely..because it looks to me a wall of texts and I don't really want to read all that..next time it'd be nice to format your post so it is ..more readablebut I, myself skips classes because well..I have better things to do than staying in classes and listening to the same old stuff I've already knew/understood. and since I'm into art, quite often I'd spend my time doing stuff related to art rather than academic stuff at school. but that's just me


  5. runescape fails for the following reasons1) Instead of spending COUNTLESS hours in front of the computer without gaining any sort of advancement to your knowledge, use the time to read, or solve math problems. As they say, ?Time is Money?. 2) Sitting in front of the computer can drain your energy and your brain. 3) There are health precautions. Most people develop migrain and feel nauseous. 4) The radiation from the computer screen can cause skin cancer. 5) RuneScape is an addicting game, but the graphics SUCK! 6) Its a source of advertisement and a way for Jagex to make money. The kids are tortured to force their parents to pay for membership or buy accounts/weapons from others. 7) There are users online who want to hack accounts of other players. They invite other players to their ?private server? which is set as a trap. Than, once the player logs in the private server, the username and password is in the possession of the scammer. This list a fail list. Lets start with # 1 1 - Same with WOW 2 - People die from played W O W 3 - See above 4 - See above 5 - It's a Java game for crying out load , what do you expect WOW grahpics , I'm pretty sure it would be better if it had to brought on cd and was 3.5gbs big. 6 - Ofcourse they need money , so does world of warcraft. 7 - WOW probably has more hackers than the numbers of players who play runescape. Like I said fail list


  6. I don't think any of the older ipods are worth getting..only the Itouches :)Pros:- tons of appications/games that you can install for free (that is if you jb it)-able to browse internet anywhere so long as there is wifi - it's like a personal PDA- Great battery life althoguh I can't say the same about the older ipods..Cons:-Battery life starts to loose charge after using it for a couple months..but no fear you could still replace the battery-Not really a con but the headphones that come with it is crap


  7. I'm not sure this is the right forum to ask but..

    I'm getting a new laptop soon and I'm looking at these 2

    http://http://www.bestbuy.ca/

    and

    http://www1.ca.dell.com/ca/en/home/Laptops/laptop-inspiron-1545/pd.aspx?refid=laptop-inspiron-1545&s=dhs&cs=cadhs1&ref=lthp
    (the 579.99 one)

    so I ask you guys
    which one is the better deal??

    I'm going to be using this laptop for coding and photoshopping...so no hardcore gaming

  8. first you were attracted to this 15 year old, you told her off, now you want to be her tutor?!?!?!? dude....seriously....you dig your own grave here. maybe you need to get a little more schooling under your belt as you call it because you have ALOT to learn!
    slander? i don't think so pal. i have just repeated what you have said and gave my opinon. you're a sicko. please....so tell what country you are referring to where these actions of yours are common place where such criticisms i have expressed are non extistant where you are from.

    advice? you want advice? here it is. leave her alone. go your seperate ways. you added fuel to a fire. no extinguish it. don't tutor her. don't even look at her. go back to your one room hideaway where you are apt to make less mistakes in life. you are right. i can tell you don't get out much. sicko. that is my advice. if you plan on doing any differently, then please do everyone a favor and keep it to yourself next time....seriously....nobody is interested in the adult adventures with a 15 year old.


    Was that really necessary? the additional insults??
    To be honest, I think you're the one who needs to learn. legend might have made a mistake but that doesn't give you the right to treat him like *BLEEP* and calling him sicko and all that crap

  9. you jhust proved my point that you are as sick as he is.
    you want some advice? stop being a sicko that sees nothing wrong with a 20 year old flirting with a 15 year old right in front of her house. how did he even get there? was he stalking her? this whole thread makes me sick. that 15 year old girl is someone's daughter out there. they don't want some 20 year old sick drooling over her.

    how did he torment her? read his post for god sake. did you even read the whole thing like i did? i started yelling at her because she's 15. what the heck. that is not just sick, that's evil. you don't torment and yell at a 15 year old girl when you're 20 just like you don't stalk a 15 year old and tell everyone it's her fault!


    Have you read my post at all?? I NEVER SAID it is okay for him to date a 15 year old girl! I'm ONLY saying that 5 years isn't a HUGE age gap! That is ALSO why I said if they were 5 years older, It would be OKAY!

    You've also proved my point that you mentioned the mycent *BLEEP* just to get more mycents

    I'm a sicko? based on what? based on the fact that I'm here and not liking your attitude towards the OP? quote me, when DID I say it was okay for a 20 year old to flirt with a 15 year old girl?? even if he did you didn't need to act like he murdered someone

  10. I fail to see how he is tormenting a young girl..well there must be a reason why your active in this particular forum. EVERYONE IS HERE FOR MYCENTS!! it's a fact!! besides I'm sure the only reason you brought this whole mycent crap into this thread is because you want to make your post longer so that you get more mycents.

    This thread is posted under "Dating Advice" forum. this is pretty self explanatory but if you didn't get that ..people come here and ask for advices about their relationships. so no it isn't useless.

    I'm saying if they were 5 years older then there isn't really anything wrong with it. love has no boundaries, if he really likes this girl then yeah of course he's going to ask for advices..

    How am I sick??? I never said I supported him. I just think you're attitude towards the OP is just plain harsh.. it isn't helpful either.


    attack him so he doesn't torrment under age girls again. i'll stick with my own idea of what is right and wrong. you stick to yours. no, i am not desperate for mycents. why....do you see me starting useless threads?
    also, he is not 25 and she is not 20. he is 20, and she is 15. you're as sick as he is. SHE IS UNDER AGE! tha\e sad part is that he has to ask advice in the right thing to do because he doesn't know any better. THAT IS SAD!
