Netflix on XBox 360 Review

Posted by Justin under Personal, motorcycles, review, xbox360

Living in the dorms on a military base, I chose to just stick with the internet rather than getting hosed by the ONE cable provider we’re provided with on base, which has a monopoly so as you’d guess their service is absolutely horrible.

Simply because they know you have no other choice.

Now I do have an hdtv and it happens to have a VGA port so I can hook my laptop up to it. With all the video sites around now and NetFlix and it’s competitors offering viewing of entire movies on their web-sites I said no thanks to cable….

Then a while back while I was waiting god knows how long for my xbox 360 to get back from their repair depot. (Click Here to read that horror story) I had read about Netflix offering the ability to stream movies through xbox live. This sounded fantastic to me as that is what I primarily use netflix for since I’m not a big fan of waiting a day or two to get the dvd.

This is my mess of a setup

My Cash for Christmas

Posted by Justin under Personal, review

With Christmas only a few days away I thought I’d post this.  I don’t make a whole lot of money so coming up with cash for the holidays is no easy task in itself.  This year I found myself scrounging for dough.  Not really financially able to get what my family deserved with our tightening economic crunch and my lack of any credit cards I thought maybe I’d try one of these holiday loan things.

So I found this “my cash for christmas” site and thought I’d give it a whirl.  I plan on paying it back relatively quickly as I only needed a small loan.  And this worked out great for me. The response was instant and I got the cash within a business day to go get the gifts I needed.  I got my family everything that was reasonable and I could afford.  I’ll pay the loan off after the 1st when I get my check and already made a small payment on it.

I think I’ll probably do this next year.

A week since my last post?

Well it’s been over a week since I last posted an update, I apologize to those few readers I have that I see trickle in on a daily basis through my statistics.  I’ve been working a lot on other sites but still having less than hopeful outcomes.  My adsense revenue is going up steadily but still lacking on the affiliate network income.

I’ve been trying to push a few sites here and decided not to outsource anything anymore due to my last attempt at it spawning several competitors…that and a new paypal dispute.  That is a whole other thing in itself.

Anyway expect some steady updates the next few weeks as I’ll be not at work a little bit with the holidays, I’ve been using netflix on my xbox 360 here lately and plan on writing a review about that.  It is really handy, I’ll save that for my next post.  Thank you for reading.

My XBox 360 Horror Story/Experience: UPDATE

Posted by Justin under Personal, review, xbox360

This is an update to my previous post on my experience with Microsoft XBox 360′s customer support

So, I finally recieved my Xbox 360 after a little more than 2 months.  I ended up having to go to UPS myself to pick it up because for some reason they could not get the address right for the SECOND time.  There was no issue when they sent the empty box for me to ship it to them the first time.  Yet when it came time to send me the replacement they simply could not get the address right.

The first time they forgot the apartment number, and it was sent back to their repair facility.  Then when it came back the second time with the
