Web Video Viewing Ballooned in December

Web Video Viewing Ballooned in December

Winter weather, holiday anxiety and a failing economy seems to be the perfect cocktail for traffic on Internet video sites, which saw a huge spike in viewing this December. New figures from comScore show that online video properties like YouTube and Hulu saw a 13 percent jump in viewing in that month alone.

Predictably, YouTube continued to dominate by accounting for 41.2 percent of all videos watched, but it also accounted for the biggest part of the month’s leap in traffic: nearly 50 percent. Fox, Yahoo! and Viacom trail with 3.1, 2.3 and 2.0 percent of traffic total traffic for the month, respectively.

Buy a New Windows or Apple PC Now or Wait for Vista and Leopard?

Over at the Wall Street Journal Walt Mossberg has suggested you not buy a new Windows PC now, but rather buy an Apple box. Walt is a huge fan of Apple and I think that may have clouded his judgment as Windows buyers are different than Apple buyers and visa versa.

Hold off On Buying Apple Laptops

In general Apple products are very well built, but sometimes can still have problems; and Apple often isn’t very forthcoming on what the problem is. Right now they are having a shutdown problem with their laptop lines and have issued a firmware patch to correct it.

Quakcon 2003 coverage

Quote from the Quakcon report at HardOCP:

“Gathering a cult following over the course of the last few years, QuakeCon has quickly become the Woodstock of the Computer Gaming community. Once a year, thousands of gamers migrate towards Dallas, Texas armed with the latest hardware and enough caffeine to wake Elvis for one last show. As each year passes, the show has grown by leaps and bounds. This year proved to be no exception as organizers saw an incredible response for registration. With over 2000 BYOC attendees and over 5500 total registrants, 2003 was by far the largest QuakeCon yet. Fortunately, those running the event had enough foresight to bring QuakeCon to a new venue. This year, the event was held at the Adam’s Mark Hotel in Downtown Dallas. Those who attended our Winter [H]ardware Workshop will be very familiar with this venue as it was the location of the event last December. Having QuakeCon at this venue ensured that space would not be an issue and that gamers would be fragging in the lap of luxury throughout the weekend.”
