I'm not sure how many of you use FIrefox or know about this, but you can add or remove search engines that the search toolbar will use in the browser.  THis website has the required info:

Specifically I found a Thottbot entry.  Yes, you can search thottbot from your main browser screen without actually pulling up the site. 

So I found a link on Joystiq to this video of employing touchscreen technology for RTS games:

That looked amazing.  I can agree with the statement that touch-input would be a great way to play and RTS. 

On the same page as the above video I found a link to a voice/touch input method working on Warcraft III:

Come to Garithos.

(and Puls., shut your hole)

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Ok, the new wallpaper option kicks ass.

Nice work Doodi.

Shit. Firefox crashed an I lost my post. well, here is the shortend version:

Atari 2600 in parents attic for more than 10 years.

I wanted it. I went and got it.

Dad: "Do you think it will work?"

Me: "I'll let you know after I get home."

So, here it is. The Atari is hooked up on my 50" HDTV in the living room right along side my xbox 360. Works good but I Think the RF swtich is in need of replacing. Easy given Ebay.

Without further delay, I give you...
