Where is Your Money Going?This was Posted by Jill on Tue, 03/30/2010 - 18:26.
Peter Kafka, a writer for All Things Digital, covered the pricing of cable channels within one of his latest articles. He shares a list of pricing for individual cable channels from industry analyst SNL Kagan through a research note of Barclays Capital Anthony DiClemente. If you are like me and could live without a dozen sports channels on basic cable you might be annoyed at the cost breakdown. Thankfully I cut the cable almost a year ago and therefore only feel slightly annoyed that most my friends and family are being ripped off.

You can watch PlayOn and hang out with the Zaxy gamer girls. If that is not enough to get you to swing by, then at least come enter our contest for a 46" LCD TV that we will give away at the end of the show. Not going to PAX? Well we don't want to leave you out, so enter to win a Xbox or PS3 with PlayOn, a year subsription to MLB.tv and the MLB 2010 game.

With March Madness in full swing basketball fans everywhere are being less productive. But how long can you really forfeit your productivity without guilt eating away at you? Well a growing number of brilliant men have planned their vasectomies around their favorite sports. According to Oregon Urology Institute vasectomies have seen an increase during March Madness the past two years. Not only did they see an increase, but now they are advertising with “Vas Madness” flyers and a radio ad. The flyers give “Top Ten Reasons to Get Your Vasectomy during Vas Madness” and here they are:
1. Extended office hours during games Dr. Douglas Hoff, a urologist at Oregon Urology Institute said, "I don't know if these were the guys who were on the fence and this pushed them over the edge, or if these are guys who would be doing it anyways.” MLB ContestThis was Posted by Jill on Fri, 03/19/2010 - 16:54.

March MadnessThis was Posted by Jill on Wed, 03/17/2010 - 08:41.
Thursday is the kick off of March Madness and the offices of PlayOn have got the basketball bug. So in an attempt to watch our favorite teams (oh yeah and make all of your wildest dreams come true) we have pulled a few all nighters and think that Thursday morning we will have a functional March Madness channel for FREE! We are not 100% sure, but let's say we are confident enough to announce this channel and take the chance of public embarrassment. Make sure you have downloaded the free trial of PlayOn and get ready for some March Madness! 3 Movies To Get You Ready for St Patrick's DayThis was Posted by Jill on Sun, 03/14/2010 - 16:30.
St Patrick’s Day is less than a week away! If getting sloshed on a Wednesday night is not an option…..then we are here to spread the Irish love. Here are some ideas that won’t have you stumbling into work on Thursday still smelling like Guinness. Netflix Recommendations – After a very scientific office poll, we present to you our favorite Irish movies: Waking Ned Devine – Set in a small Irish town, Ned has won the lottery and everyone wants a piece of his money. After the town’s people find he has died they enter a pact to scam the officials and split Ned’s winnings. Boondock Saints – Two Irish brothers living in Boston believe that it is God’s calling for them to rid the city of evil. Throughout the movie they go on a massive killing spree with local mafia as their victims. A public outcry is never heard; instead they are viewed as heroes. Angela’s Ashes – Based on a best selling autobiography, Angela’s Ashes shows the hardships of a young boy and his family living in the Irish slums. Hulu Recommendations – (clips found under Food Network Originals) A Perfect Pint of Guinness – Apparently there are 6 steps to pouring a perfect Guinness. And to think how many of us have been pouring imperfect stouts this whole time….it’s a shame. Stout- Soaked Beef – ymmmm
