 Coworking, monde normal - une simple vitre entre les deux. English version coming soon !  Page d'accueil de TVGorge.com While France continues to try and struggle against piracy in all shapes and form without questioning outdated, tired economical models through the HADOPI and LOPPSI laws, people start finding alternate ways to quench their entertainment thirst to the Internet fountain. TV series from abroad are pretty much what we’re interested in here, preferably in their original version, and even if the original channels that aired them will broadcast them online, it’s often impossible to watch them outside the borders of the country where they were aired in the first place. And that’s where TVGorge, the rising star of online streaming websites, comes into play : their proprietary indexing and search engine scans sources such as MegaVideo or WiseVid looking for videos of the most-requested series, and users vote for the quality levels of the streams to put forward the best possible experience. No need to download anything aside from a browser and a reasonably speedy connection, and no need to wait for the end of a long download. In order to find the shows you want to watch, all you need to do is browse through the lists of alphabetically-sorted series or search the website. How cool is that ? TVGorge has recently faced some issues due to its success and stopped for a few days to stream the videos directly from their website, but everything is back to normal now ; it was well worth it, since full-screen playback that was a little laggy, is now very smooth. Enjoy the show ! As for me, I’ll go back to watching Caprica ! [Update] Today, March the 4th 2010, I just realized that TV Gorge has put up a donation/quizz system. Take a quizz or make a Paypal donation and you’ll have unlimited access to the video streams.
I had heard about this one from the main man, but as I cleaned up my Facebook account notifications I ran face to face with the main page for Dans Ta Cave, the customized arcade sticks online store, with an upcoming webcast on top of that ! It’s important to support the people who have the drive and the guts to do what they really want to do, and founder Valentin Lormeau (I’ve known that guy for some time now, from badly planned video games days to anime conventions) is one of these people that deserve being encouraged. So if you love fighting games so much that you want to blow some money to buy a custom My Little Poney joystick, look no further ! Dans Ta Cave, Arcade sticks and soon-to-come fighting games webcasts  Photo sous licence CC BY-NC-SA Nerd Commando P8tch par DonCoyote I bumped into this while going through my morning feeds, and as you already know I’m very interested in what one can do with QR Codes (especially since I finally got my own Android phone), I took a look at the P8tch : personnalized semacodes, printed and sewn on velcro that you can stick to your clothes, your backpack…A little costly at about 25$ a p8tch, but a good idea and a very nice design. And the US dollar is tanking anyway… Get a P8tch at the Boinb Boing Bazaar ! sur Boing Boing.

Traditionally uploaded in several installments, the first torrent has apparently made its way online since February the 15th. The perfect occasion to discover a big fat selection of new bands ! Come back often to check for the second torrent, and don’t forget to seed !
