WELCOME TO EPISODE NUMBER WHO KNOWS OF THE QUEUE…
I’M RICH DEMURO WITH CNET TV AND THIS IS THE SHOW THAT WELCOMES BOTH HD DVD AND BLU RAY TO THE PARTY…
NOW FOR YOUR MUST CLICK MOMENT!
A COMMERICAL FROM THE NATIONAL OCIATION OF BROADCASTERS URGING CONGRESS NOT TO SHARE DIGITAL TV AIRWAVES WITH UNLICENSED DEVICES…

THIS AFTER A PROTOTYPE DEVICE CAUSED INTERFERENCE IN AN EARLY TEST…
COMPANIES LIKE MICROSOFT AND GOOGLE WANT THE TECHNOLOGY TO DEVELOP NEW HIGH TECH DEVICES WITH SHORT RANGE WIRELESS FUNCTIONS.

SURVEY ALSO SAYS AMERICANS WATCH 8 HOURS OF TV A DAY!
WHICH LEADS US TO OUR NEXT STORY…
WHEN YOU GET HDTV YOUR VIEWING HABITS CHANGE.
SURE, YOU MIGHT BE MORE APT TO WATCH NATURE DOCUMENTARIES…
BUT ACCORDING TO A KNOWLEDGE NETWORKS SURVEY…GETTING HDTV MAKES YOU MORE SELECTIVE ABOUT WHAT YOU WATCH AND WHEN.
ABOUT A THIRD ALWAYS CHECK HD CHANNELS FIRST WHEN SURFING…THAT INCLUDES ME…
HALF ALWAYS MAKE AN EFFORT TO WATCH A PROGRAM IN HD IF IT’S OFFERED IN BOTH HIGH AND STANDARD DEFINITION.

NOT IN THE SURVEY BUT THE NUMBER ONE THING I FIND WITH HDTV NEWBIES…THEY DON’T REALIZE HD CHANNELS ARE IN A SEPERATE, HIGHERED NUMBER TIER…

MOVING THROUGH THE QUEUE…
TRENDHUNTER WITH A GALLERY OF COOL VENDING MACHINES…
AND YOU THOUGHT IT WAS NEAT IF YOU FOUND ONE THAT TAKES DEBIT CARDS?
THERE’S A CONCEPT BICYCLE RENTAL VENDING MACHINE…
YOU RENT A BIKE LIKE A SMART CARTE…THEN DROP IT OFF AT ANOTHER RENTAL STATION…
THERE’S THE SOCCER BALL VENDING MACHINE FROM NIKE…
FOR WHEN YOU KICK ONE OUT OF THE PARK…
A HAIR STRAIGHTNER VENDING MACHINE…
A JAPANESE MACHINE THAT WILL SHOW YOU A 30 SECOND AD IN EXCHANGE FOR A FREE CUP OF JOE…
AND MY PERSONAL FAVORITE…
THE WONDERPIZZA VENDING MACHINE…FOR PIPING HOT PIE IN UNDER TWO MINUTES!
TIME FOR THE BETA…
AND TODAY IT’S SUCH A SIMPLE SITE THERE’S ONLY ONE PAGE…
PIXIZER WILL RESIZE YOUR PICS IN A JIFFY.
SPEND LESS TIME RESIZING AND MORE TIME UPLOADING PROFILE PICS, WEB PAGES AND MORE…
THE SITE LETS YOU SELECT A PICTURE FROM A FILE ON YOUR COMPUTER OR A URL…
THEN RESIZE IN SECONDS.
SCALE DOWN TO PERCENTAGES…
OR CHOOSE FROM A LIST OF STANDARD SIZES…
THERE ARE WAYS TO MAKE ICONS, BANNER ADS, AVATARS, FORUM PICS AND MORE…
THERE ARE EVEN DESKTOP WALLPAPER SIZES FOR A PERFECT RESOLUTION FIT.[5]SCHOOL PICTURE DAY
FINALLY, IT’S BACK TO SCHOOL TIME…
AND THERE’S NOTHING MORE ENDEARING TO AN ADOLESCENT IN THEIR AWKWARD STAGE THAN PICTURE DAY.

THIS IS WHEN YOU WEAR A NEW SHIRT THAT’S PROBABLY TOO BIG FOR YOU…GET A NEW HAIRCUT THAT DOESN’T COMB RIGHT…AND FIND A PIMPLE THE MORNING OF THE SHOOT…

WISH I HAD THE PHOTO MARKETING OCIATION’S HELPFUL LIST WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL…
IT HAS GREAT TIPS SO KIDS LOOK THEIR BEST…
LIKE…
WEAR DARK SOLID COLORS…
AVOIDING GREEN CLOTHES SINCE MORE SCHOOLS ARE KEYING IN BACKGROUNDS…
GETTING HAIRCUTS A WEEK OR SO IN ADVANCE…
AND DEFINITELY NOT DOING WHAT THAT MOM ON SUNSET TAN DID…
SPENDING 13-HUNDRED BUCKS ON A TANNING PACKAGE BEFORE THE BIG SHOOT.
WHATEVER YOU DO…DON’T TAKE YOUR PICTURES TO KINKOS AND COPY THEM FOR FRIENDS AND FAMILY…
THAT’S AGAINST THE LAW.
I’M RICH DEMURO WITH CNET TV…THE VOICE OF REASON IN A CRAZY WIRED WORLD…
