With the world ‘going digital,’ it’s no surprise that over 2,000 movie theatres in the US are using digital projection technology.

A new system currently proposed by a consortium of the largest movie chains in the US “could give theater operators the flexibility to put a popular movie on an extra screen as quickly as the demand for it arises. At the same time, theater operators could boot out a surprise stinker and even book in for a day or two an art-house film with a small but devoted audience.”

This new ‘on demand’ flexibility could allow for great options, especially at smaller theaters who can get one good showing a day, but has to keep running the same film 3 or more times the same day with a handful of viewers. Different films on those three other showing times could allow for increased selection, higher attendance per screening and maximize the seat capacity of every theatre - from 1 to 100 screens!

There is no “filtering” yet employed for the listings of these clips on the major sites, and many get listed many, many times. Some in complete form, others snippets driving home specific points.

VideoExposé cuts through all that clutter, providing you topically arranged directories of the top related categories: 9-11 Conspiracy, The Illuminati, JFK, Religions like Scientology, and what kind of site would it be if there weren’t any exposés on celebrities?

While personally an avid FireFox Fan, today I’m going to give Opera a shot. I mean, it sure does look pretty! These days, even Firefox tends to lock up - actually almost as much as AOL or the Beta of IE 7, so, it’s all 6 of one, half dozen another.

As a long-time fan of Keyspan products, you know, the guys who make everything USB and easy, I was happy to see the new release for Apple’s Front Row. Not that I’m a MAC “guy” by any stretch of the imagination. But, I got my hands on one of these puppies, and headed over to a fellow MAC enabled home to give it a whirl! What a great piece of equipment.
