Without much fanfare, Sony opens up the PlayStation Store. where you can download for-pay and free content via your computer and upload them directly onto your PSP.

At the moment, there’s still just limited content like Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (PS1), Syphon Filter: Combat Ops and Tekken 2. Aside from games, wallpapers, themes, video trailers and demos are available as well.

To start downloading from the PlayStation Store, get The PSP PC Application and install it on your Desktop. It allows users to download content through the software and then it directly uploads to the USB-connected PSP.

It’s expected that sometime in the future the PS3 store will offer the same type of service as well as integrate with the PC and PSP Store. For now though, if you’re interested in trying the store out without cashing in, there’s FREE contents like games and themes that only require a sign up to download.

Interested on how your site looks on a different browser and OS? If you were to do it the old way you need multiple browsers in your PC (say Opera, Firebox, IE and Safari) and check them out manually. If you wanted to test your site on both IE6 AND IE7 then you need a separate installation for both (check below on how to do it). If you want to test your work on multiple OS’s though, you either need multiple machines or a bit of knowhow on running multiple OS’s on the same machine.

Now you just need to type the URL of the site you need to test and it’s automatically done for you.

Playing MMOGs for about most of my college years, I’ve found that gamers can be classified into 5 categories depending on how they interact with other players and the game itself. Note that these descriptions apply to the games I’ve played like Ragnarok Online, RF Online, RAN Online, Maple Story (wth!), Final Fantasy Online as well as those that I’ve just gotten a look of like Guild Wars and World of Warcraft

The game-aholic

Game-aholics are likely to be NEETs (Not in Employment, Education or Training) thus giving them enough time to spend for gaming. These players own characters that you’ll see almost 90% of the time when the game servers are up exploring, leveling, socializing etc. They’re people who you can describe as living their characters since the interact with their online selves so much that they have little time to go out and meet people IRL (in real life) thus they’re either stuck gaming or making a living out of it by selling in-game items for RMT (Real Money Trading).

Like many sequels I’ve seen so far, Shakugan no Shana’s second take on the seen feels like a drawn out appeal by animators (not the creators of the manga) to bait more people into watching a series that’s getting more and more stale with each passing episode.

If you’re a frequent YouTube uploader, you’d notice that the Google company increased file size limit from 100 MB to 1 GB. Length for videos still remain at 10 minutes though so while there will be more high quality content on their database, you still need to stream a whole in parts.

Also, currently available for Windows users is a desktop uploader. Users will now be able to do bulk file uploads. A Mac version of the uploader is in the works but no news on a Linux version. You’ll just have to check if it works with WINE.

Now people who have digital cameras and laptop computers will find it hard to resist uploading videos on you tube. Those who have the largest digital cameras will definitely not be able to stay away from the luring ringtones of youtube. Indeed dvd is losing its value.
