According to ArsTechnica, Google will launch a video download service that integrates with Google Video Search that will presumably allow for paid downloads of popular television shows, as iTunes currently offers. Google will also release a bundle of online applications from antivirus software, instant messaging clients to media players in an application suite dubbed Google Pack. It is supposed to be aimed towards new internet users. The only caveat being that Google will use RealPlayer technology to stream video content. Read the whole story over at Ars.
PaulStamatiou.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress
Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.
With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like PaulStamatiou.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.
I used the Scribe WordPress plugin and service to optimize this blog post for SEO.

Argh! not realplayer! Realplayer is evil! It wants to take over your media experience. I refuse to download realplayer.
I like the idea of a google pack- maybe it will include firefox?
