Get a gaming coach!

They have an article about gaming tutors. Turns out if you want to own, you need to get some insights from kids with crazy mad skilz!

For almost a year, Mr. Taylor has operated a Web site called Gaming-lessons.com where players can book lessons in two games, Microsoft’s “Halo 2″ and Nintendo Co.’s “Super Smash Brothers Melee”, choosing from a dozen instructors (average age: 19). Clients pay between $20 and $65 an hour for individual lessons, depending on the instructor’s skill level and the demand for his services.

Gaming-lessons.com says its youngest “Halo 2″ instructor is 8-year-old New Yorker Victor De Leon III, better known by his online gamer name, Lil Poison, who has given several lessons a month since late last year, fitting the classes in after he has done his homework. His father, also named Victor, says his son has used some of the money he earns from lessons (hourly rate: $25) to buy a hamster, named Cortana after a character in the game.

I guess that is what it will take for me to get back into gaming. The help of an eight year old :-(

It’s true! I have two files that are my most popular content. They are all over gamers forums and a lot of MySpaces too

Here they are for your linking when a statement need to be made:

They have a nice collection of eighties music videos =) examples from A include:

A
* A Flock Of Seagulls – Space Age Love Song
* A Guy Called Gerald – Voodoo Ray
* A-HA – Take on me
* ABBA – Super Trouper
* ABC – The Look Of Love
* Accept – Balls to the Wall
* Adam Ant – Kings Of The Wild Frontier
* Adrian Gurvitz – Classic
* Adriano Celentano – Susanna

And more like that – IP rights on content are still dead as far as I can see and DRM is not really in scope here. Someone recorded the videos from Broadcast TV Music Channels, encoded them and put them on your tube – how can you beat that? It’s sort of like bit torrent. The homepage owner can just claim he is just pointing to exsisting stuff.

“What?!?!?!?! are you saying that HYPERLINKING is illegal!?!?!? SHUT DOWN THE INTERNET!!!!” =)
