I said this when i09 changed, and I'll say it again here. Am I the only one who recognizes the lure of the internet is the multimedia experience? This site redesign has taken us back to the days of printed newsletters. I often pick stories to read because of the photo associated with it. Nothing in the stories bar on the right makes me want to click on any of it. Gizmodo has gone from a multimedia experience to an RSS reader. Not liking it.
@evilfool: I have the Eddie Bauer knockoff version of that hat - not leather and faux fur - but I was still the envy of my coworkers when we were in the field in Montana and Texas this January.
@matercepwina: Yes, you're right, if I'm reading my Kindle or listening to a podcast I'd totally miss the aircraft suddenly being upside down or bursting into flames (You used the word catastrophic).
I'm fine with putting my phone into aircraft mode for the flight. The ridiculous part to me is the requirement to COMPLETELY SHUT OFF every electronic device for takeoff and landing, regardless of whether or not it transmits radio signals. My iPod Shuffle or grandma's Kindle are not going to cause a problem during takeoff or landing.
For me, Hulu's problem is their inability to have all episodes of all seasons of older, off the air shows. Select seasons only? Not all episodes? Forget it.
With a game library as large as the PS2's, Sony knew there was still a market for the PS2 console. That's why they killed the backwards compatibility for PS2 games that the first PS3 consoles had. Sony claimed it was a price saving move, but in reality, it was a way to keep selling PS2s.
//Don't even LOOK at my 60GB PS3 with backwards compatibility.
