Whats wrong with it? It sure looked and heard real good. Yes I will admit that the video lacked a TINY bit of quality but its bearly noticible. images/smilies/smile.gif

Any way back to the epsiode. This one is for me that is had more jokes in it. They were really good. images/smilies/wink.gif I really liked the way how James reacted to the robots. It was fun and entertaining.

This episode as well as the last was really informative and it got me thinking what might the future be for us.
Could we be really blogging ourselves so we can visit past forgotten memorys? Its really mysterious.

I certainly will be looking forward for the next episode images/smilies/smile.gif

That was a trippy episode. Lots of cool stuff, although I didn't get the point of the last thing. Isn't that the same type of setup they use for making video games?

This was much better last night and James was in good form. I love ASIMO - £500,000 each if anyone is interested. Worth every penny, but only if you can teach it to say 'bollocks'.

When's the 3rd Oz and James series going up?
Last I heard (during an interview James did with Simon Mayo this summer) that it would be out either just before Christmas or just after.

Huh? Since when is Shaw blocking BitTorrent?

I was with them up until April and I had no problems downloading stuff then.

There's a JM's Big Ideas HTTP thread, you should check that out... but I really doubt Shaw is now blocking BT.

I just got done watching the first episode, and have to say I more than a little bit surprised at how well James pulled it off. The Moller car section was just brilliant images/smilies/biggrin.gif. That being said, I've been digging and digging, trying to find out what the piece of music they used during that section. Anyone have any ideas?

They might be throttling but I highly doubt blocking.

... didn´t like the episode at all ... but that´s because it had nothing new for me and bored me (to death). Sadly, if shows like that go into an area of your expertise, they tend to lose all their apeal and you just go "o rly?" ... next weeks episode doesn´t look to promising to me either, topic-wise ...

Liked Jar Jar May though images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

I second this, only because this torrent downloads at 12kbs for me, which is really very sad indeed.

Please and thank you images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I dunno! It happened back in 06. I was torrenting episodes of TG one a night (slow connection), then suddenly I couldn't torrent anything, over multiple torrenting programs. Tried a year later and it's the same thing. Firewalls off n'all. I could try it again but I doubt it'll work.

But thanks for the direction, there wasn't one last time I looked, I'll head over there. (PS: How 'bout this rain, eh? images/smilies/tongue.gif)

He said Beethoven wrote it "when he was hopelessly in love with a young woman who simply wasn't interested in him". Which probably explains why it's such a sad piece of music. images/smilies/sad.gif And prooves once more that a rotten private life is a goldmine for any artist. images/smilies/biggrin.gif
