The Wii is Victorious (for one month at least)

This is data is about a month late old now, but the Nintendo Wii was the best selling video game console of January. Here's the totals

1. Nintendo Wi- 436,000
2. Sony Playstation 2- 299,000
3. XBox360- 294,000
4. Sony Playstation 3- 244,000

Microsoft dominated the month of December though selling over 1.1 million XBox's (first and second generation) while the Wii sold 604,000 in a distant second.

What is most staggering to me about this figures is that the PS3, with all its hype and technological capabilities continues to finish in third place of the new consoles. Although the PS2 is still selling very strong, that probably won't keep up for too much longer. It's almost like Sony tried far too hard in developing the PS3 and made it too expensive and harder to get. Eventually the PS3 should catch up depending in large part on when they decide to lower the price. These selling figures only take two months into account. It's hard to determine the successfulness of a console like this in four months, but thus far the PS3 has dug itself a hole that it desperately needs to get out of.

New spin on blogging.

So a lot of people have gotten into blogging. People blogging about sports, politics, boo-yah, etc. However their hasn't been any types of machines that can blog (that I'm aware of). Imagine if your computer randomly post a blog telling the blogger community about how it woke up (turned on), talked about their daily journey, (sites visited, stuff bought, games played, etc.) and/or how it got sick/better (Computer virus, Spy-ware, De fragment, etc.)

Well thanks to the site XBOX 360 Voice, the machine can do it's own blogging. How it works is you register your Xbox Gamers tag and in 2 days it creates a blog linked to your tag. then it records any activity you did on your Xbox 360, such as games played, achievements unlocked, multiplayer standings, new friends, etc.)

For those of you who are curious how it works here is a link to my 360 voice blog.
