Web Content Week!!

Welcome to the end of our first FULL MONTH of posts!!! I hope you have been enjoying our new show!

Last week our poll was about Star Wars movies! It looks as if most of you enjoy the classic movies to the new ones! Good to know for possible commentaries!!

This week we have a Web Content Week. This is basically just some videos or games or news that we have collected over the month from us, or from our listeners... that's you, incase you were un-sure!

We will share some news first, then a photo, then some video.

NEWS

Here is an article about "Game experts believe they've uncovered earliest known version of D&D". This link was sent to us by Pat from Cave Comics in Newtown CT. Here is a link to his awesome store: http://www.cavecomics.com/

This article was very interesting to us as Targ is a huge D&D fan. http://www.blastr.com/2013-4-29/game-experts-believe-theyve-uncovered-earliest-known-version-dd

As geeks, we are very interested in the final frontier. Space, I mean. We often check in at the Spitzer Space Telescope site (http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/), and the images from there are fraking amazing! Here is one from June 5th, 2013:

 
 
From the Spitzer site: "Dozens of newborn stars sprouting jets from their dusty cocoons have been spotted in images from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. In this view showing a portion of sky near Canis Major, infrared data from Spitzer are green and blue, while longer-wavelength infrared light from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) are red.

The jets appear in green, while young stars are a yellow-orange hue. Some of the jets can be seen as streaks, while others appear as blobs because only portions of the jet can be seen. In some cases, the stars producing jets can't be seen while their jets can. Those stars are so embedded in their dusty cocoon that they are too faint to be seen at Spitzer's wavelengths."

 
VIDEO

Now here is a video of this kid called Jon Cozart (@joncozart on Twitter, and http://www.youtube.com/paint on YouTube) who does fun videos about geeky things (usually involving music) like Harry Potter, Disney, and LOTR. Here is his video about Lord of the Rings called "Lord of the Rings in 99 Seconds":

 
So this concludes our Web Content Week! I hope you all liked the set up. What, if anything would you change? Please let us know in the comments section!
 
And don't forget our poll this week!!
 
Next week we have a podcast featuring Diane and Tribble discussing Sexy Men of Geekdom!
