If real, & the Thunderbolt I/O is indeed LightPeak, why would Apple consolidate the port into a Mini Display Port? Seems like an odd fit..
kevingailey··on YouTube Says It's in Negotiations to Stream Live NBA, NHL Games
the NFL screwed themselves with their contract with DirecTV (NFL Network & Sunday ticket) they effectively handed over all broadcast rights to (out of market/streaming) DirecTV (aside from NBC's Sunday Night Football broadcast)

NFL games are streamed via a free DirecTV app. But you need the $400+ Sunday Ticket package from them...

This would be superb & a huge win for YouTube as a publishing platform. The biggest gap in online media is live content. This is especially true for sports (at their best live) So YouTube locking down the rights to these streams (hopefully for all games, not select high profile ones) would be a home run. Hope this comes true! Go Lake Show!

kevingailey··on Grooveshark's new Javascript/HTML interface
It worked for YouTube, it its heyday it was all illegal content. They've already got a deal with EMI and prolly Universal soon (they're suing Grooveshark,but that's the same way they got the EMI liscense) Also they supposedly put a chunk of cash in an escrow account for when the labels come knocking.

Cool but what about easy iOS game development for Android..?
kevingailey··on Someone Copied the SNAP Source Code to Github Before Sony Pulled it Down
Is there a reason you'd want this? It seems if Sony pulled SNAP that the "next gen platform" it was to be intended for may not materialize, or may use another framework? What good could come out of this SDK if there's isn't a device/platform to use it on? /newbie question
