Microsoft XBox 360 Kinect Mini Review

So I got to try Microsoft’s XBox 360 Kinect motion sensor system and I was quite pleased with it’s first impressions. I was able to play Kinect Sports and Kinect Adventure. Both titles are most probably intended for group play but I had fun playing them solo. Now I only got to play with the Kinect system for a about 40 minutes and this posting is a mini review.

First impression; it was great. The first thing I was questioning about Kinect was it’s ability to capture motion from objects moving back and fourth. As I was playing, I moved my arms back and fourth as well as stepping forward backward and the Kinect system caught my movement. I was surprised at the level of motion sensing the Kinect was achieving.

Now it was FUN and I was working up a sweat while playing the games. This system can be a real winner with the Tai kick boxing ‘game’ that will be released in the near future. Walking into the Kinect Centre, I had decided that the Kinect system was a ‘wait and see’ purchase…something that I wasn’t going to run out and purchase right away. However, after trying Kinect and the $10 discount as well as the inclusion of Kinect Adventure, I decided to pre-order the Kinect system. Unboxing coming November 4th 2010 as well as a full review due November 6th 2010.

Taking a Stand for Privacy: Why We Said Goodbye to Google

In early April 2020, a significant decision was made at Mercola.com that sent shockwaves through the digital realm: we deliberately blocked Google from indexing our articles and breaking news blog posts. This move was not arbitrary; it was a conscientious step taken in response to the growing concerns about the invasive nature of surveillance capitalism, spearheaded by Google. The Era of Surveillance Capitalism For years, we've been sounding the alarm about the dangers posed by surveillance capitalists, with Google at the forefront. Most websites, including countless smaller ones, rely on Google's "free" analytics program and advertising platforms. But as the saying goes, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Behind the facade of free services lies a stark reality: your personal data is the currency exchanged for these conveniences. Google's power extends far beyond mere data collection. It operates as a surveillance agency with formidable yet covert capabili
