CNet has a look at the new Firefox for Mobile alpha release called Fennec. I'm curious to see how it will compare with Minimo once it is available for the iPAQ.

RIP Levi Stubbs. The lead singer of the Four Tops (and voice of Audrey II) died in his sleep at age 72.

A new 2 laser technology is being used to clean the Acropolis without damaging the colors under all the pollution grime.

There will be a 4th Bourne movie with Matt Damon and the same writer as Bourne Ultimatum.

Still haven't purchased Metatropolis from audible.com? They are releasing one of the stories (and some extra goodies) for free to promote it. (Source: John Scalzi's blog)

It sounds like Kevin Smith's next movie will be Sci-Fi (a father-son comedy in space).

Amy Acker talks about the fun she had making the SciFi Channel movie Fire and Ice which airs this weekend. Any chance it will be better than their usual Saturday dreck?

Saturday will also have a preview of Legend of the Seeker (the TV series based on Terry Goodkind's Wizard's First Rule) hosted by Lucy Lawless. I barely managed to finish the book and haven't decided if I want to try watching the series yet.

DVRs for tonight:
6pm Stargate: Atlantis
7pm Sanctuary
8pm Ghost Whisperer (& possibly the premiere of Crusoe on NBC)
9pm Ex List
10pm Numb3rs & Life
--- for Saturday:
Primeval (BBCA)
& possibly Fire and Ice (SCIFI)
--- for Sunday:
True Blood (HBO)
