What is your Japanese name?

Okay, alright..
...
Seems like I'm back..
*Whispers go "Oh really?"*

Well, yes.. Contradictory to popular belief.. I'm NOT dead. So there.

Anyways this is my first time in a while doing this so pardon me for being rusty..
...
Doing what you ask? Well now that's pretty simple. It's doing something I do best; like that good old Green Day song from the Dookie years [Sassafras Roots for your curiosity] which goes something like: "Roaming 'round your house―WASTING YOUR TIME; No obligation, just―WASTING YOUR TIME."

*Ding, dong* That's right! I'm just WASTING YOUR TIME; And what better way to waste your time than to introduce to you some other unrelated garbage. And, oh! What do we have here? A uselessly cool name generator that magically translates and transliterates your name into cool oriental Japanese substitutes.
Pardon me but, Wow! [I exclaim as I silently bet about 80% of you figure out the names are random, and also laugh my LOLing, MMOer ASS off at the remaining 20% who believed me]
...
...
So what are my intentions you might ask? Why nothing more than to shamelessly display my Japanese alternative. And, please no using this name for teasing.




Your Japanese Name Is: Shinichi Nakamura



Banzai!



The other part of my intentions being, to get all of you losers to waste your time on this useless coolness and generate your own Japanese names and hopefully not advertise it as shamelessly as I have. [Haha! Sucker!]


Until I get some real articles down on this blog.
Later!

Review : iPod Touch

Yo people, wassup??
Recently [well last week to be exact] I got an iPod Touch 16GB as a gift from a relative. Once I had this cool gadget I was all over it. It really does fill the term of complete entertainment in my opinion and as well as in features [discounting the cell phone feature, if you really need that too, go get an iPhone Dammit!!] and neat + dandy finger operated touch screen to boot!!



The controls are pretty much laid out, i.e. after half to one hour [depends on you!!] you can get the damn gadget to at least be at your whim. It does have pretty neat features though, like YouTube directly on the home page [home page, because the one button that it does have is called the home button, hence home page] as well as a cool [but not for advanced uses] calculator, which is bundled with the machine. It has a browser called Safari by Apple Inc. which has neat features, the on screen keyboard as well as the bundled search engine integration [imagine FireFox]. The one drawback is the whole Flash/GIF format still unsupported issue, but for that Apple Inc. promises to implement it in the later firmware updates.


Now on to the new landscape mode, it allows for the screen to shift position, depending on how you hold it, this one is really cool for horizontal browsing as well as picture scaling etc. The Landscape mode turns into the Album Cover Flow view [the same is present in iTunes as well] to let you choose the album from its cover, as well as the song etc.


In this matter the Pinch feature doesn't lack either, basically to activate this function you must have at least two fingers on the screen. Now if you move them farther apart the screen negatively zooms, but if you bring them closer, the screen zooms in for a more accurate view. This feature is implemented in Safari and Photos.


The connectivity for the iPod Touch is through WiFi networks, so make sure you have an access point or WiFi enabled hot-spot nearby to entirely experience the iPod Touch.




All in all I'd give it a 9/10 for all things considered it having so many features and being just a tad longer than the iPod Nano

[PS: Wanna know a way to get much more out of your iPod Touch?? then wait a little for my next HOWTO guide which covers Jailbreaking, and installing Apps (Apps: Third Party Applications) on the Touch]
