some astonishment in the advertising market, it never will."

'level of advertising'. Maybe they had the advertising supported AR goggles...

camera." Love for stuff like this to catch on, however compared to QR codes, these are much more difficult to produce than barcodes in that you can't just print them out and they require changes to
the photography technique (must be out of focus) rather than just analyzing any photograph of a barcode. They seem to be solving slightly different problems.

those AR things you print out I've wished they were based completely off of QR codes that would tell the client app where to download the 3D scene to project.

Netflix lets you watch a subset of their movies online via their website and a subset of those movies are available to watch on the Xbox 360's Netflix app. so its not always easy to find movies to
watch on Xbox 360. Yet, I regularly see my Xbox friends using the Netflix app and its a shame they didn't make an easy way to share movie recommendations with your friends. Instead we must share
movie recommendations the old fashioned way. Here's the movies I've found and enjoyed on my 360.
-
Weeds
-
You don't have to be a stoner to enjoy this humorous and dramatic satire featuring a widow trying to raise her children and deal pot in suburbia.
-
Avatar The Last Airbender
-
An American animated series that's an amalgamation of various Asian art, history, religion, etc. that maintains a great story line.
-
Paprika

If you enjoyed Paranoia Agent you'll enjoy this movie in the same animation style and by the same director and
writer, Satoshi Kon. Its like a feature length version of a Paranoia Agent episode in which a dream machine lets outsiders view one's dreams but eventually leads to blurring the dreams and
reality.
-
Grindhouse Planet Terror
-
I didn't see either of the Grindhouse movies when they first came out, but of the two, Planet Terror is the more humorous and exciting gore filled parody.
-
Outsourced
-
A refreshing romantic comedy that still has a few of the over played tropes but is easy to enjoy despite that.
-
The King of Kong
-
A hilarious documentary on the struggle between the reigning champ hot-sauce salesman and the underdog Washington state high school science teacher to obtain the Donkey Kong world record high
score. After watching, checkout this interview with the creators of the movie and the
villain.
-
Primer
-
I've mentioned Primer before, but I put it on
here again because its really good and you still haven't seen it, have you?
