Picks of the Week (DVD/Blu-ray)


Cool Find: The Black Blood of the Earth

Still having trouble editing the episode I spoke of earlier. Between that and a work project that just reared its ugly head, my “me time” activities have been severely curtailed lately. In the meantime, here’s a Cool Find to tide you over.

Like most geeks, I am a caffeine-based life form. If I don’t have […]


Cool Find: Square Credit Card Processing System

Are you an artist that sells regularly in your friendly neighborhood anime convention’s Artist Alley? Or are you a small to mid sized dealer in anime/manga related goods looking to sell your wares at your favorite anime convention’s dealer’s room? Maybe you’re a cosplay photographer looking for a way to monetize your photography skills. Or […]


Cool Find: ProPlayer Video Player for iPhone, iPod touch and iPad (Updated)

Update 12/26/2012: Due to Dolby’s new aggressive policy of going after app developers who use their AC3 and TrueHD audio codecs, ProPlayer has been removed from the App Store and is no longer available for sale. However I have found an even better app for video playback on iOS devices! See my review of HD […]


Cool Find: Alice in Musicland – A Vocaloid Musical

Happy Monday, everyone! (Sighs and groans of protest emanate from the audience) Yeah, I know what you’re thinking: it’s a Monday, what can be good about that? Well, I’ve found something that will put a smile on your face, especially if you’re a Vocaloid fan. Hell, I think you’ll get a kick out of it […]


Cool Find: My Anime Girlfriend

C’mon, admit it. I’m sure that, at least once or twice in your life, you’ve wondered what it would be like if you could date your favorite anime character. Well, as the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for, because you might get it, and it might not be quite what you’d imagined […]


Cool Find: Western Digital WD TV Live

This is sort of a half-Cool Find, half-review type article.

For the last few years I have been on a quest — a quest to free my anime from the confines of my computer screen.

Many others out there have shared this quest, I’m sure. After all, although watching anime on your computer is nice […]


Cool Find: Ren’Py

During my recent flirtation with visual novels, a question popped into my head: is there such a thing as a game mod for visual novel/dating sim type games? “Modding” a game is when you take the game’s engine and modify or otherwise hack it to add your own content into the game, fundamentally changing its […]


Cool Find: Good Smile Nendoroid, K-ON! and Hatsune Miku Themes for Google Chrome

Your web browser. You stare at it every day for hours at a time. I bet you that by now it looks pretty drab and boring to you. So why not dress it up with a theme? And, if you are a Google Chrome user, I’ve got just the themes for you!

Are you […]


Cool Find: Meridian Media Player for Android

Those of us with large digital anime collections, either ripped from DVDs that we own or acquired from, ahem, other sources (we’re not here to judge, let your own moral compass be your guide), are faced with a problem when we want to consume this content while out and about — or even just kicking […]


Cool Find: Konachan.com

I don’t know about you, but being an anime-loving computer geek, I’m always looking for new things to set as my desktop wallpaper. (Because there is nothing more boring than a plain unadorned computer desktop.) Of course you can take freeze-frames of scenes/characters from your favorite anime and use those as desktop wallpapers. And […]
