When you are half asleep at work, listening to Buzz Out Loud, and suddenly you hear: Helge from Norway is letting us know…” you kinda wake up. I forgot all about sending a buzz to the show, so that makes it even more fun when it is brought up and read

Listening to MacBreak Weekly on the TWiT podcast network, I heard this thing, and it is insanely stupid and catchy. The dude looks like he is 12, and what a deep voice, haha. See for yourself!

TWiT is back with a new episode, and they talk about the leaked HD-DVD encryption key that somewhat resembles the title of the episode. This one is a good one, and they talk with Kevin Rose from Digg as well.

I went to see the movie “the descent” today, and as you can imagine, the cinema was packed! Yeah, like 9 people saw the movie, and we were 5 of them. Then again, the movie sucked, so I can see why we were almost alone. I`ll try again tomorrow, I´m going to see “Cinderella Man” then. Better be good!

In other news, Spymac has been down since August 25th, after promising the release of Spymac4 on september 1th. It`s been 15 days since that now, and my patience is running out. Go there, log in, and complain in the chat!
