TiVo releases iPod/PSP video converter

by Jordan Running Jan 6th 2006

TiVo has released a public beta version of new software that will convert TiVoToGo video to formats playable on the iPod and Sony PSP. The software will automatically transfer your recorded TV shows to your iPod or PSP while you sleep, which is a blessing because apparently the transcoding takes awhile—up to twice as long as the video itself. The beta is free but when the final version is released it's expected to cost $15-30. You can sign up to test the beta version of TiVo Desktop 2.4 at the TiVo web site.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
