hackenslash.net now on YouTube

hackenslash.net, one of the Philippine’s gaming news websites, now has an online video channel in YouTube which they are calling hackenslash TV. I haven’t seen the videos posted yet, but I’m assuming it will be an avenue for some Philippine video-game related items that they feel would look good on a video reel.

hackenslash.net is under the INQ7.net Philippine online news website (collaboration between GMA Network Inc. and The Philippine Daily Inquirer), making me wonder (depending on how independent hackenslash.net is from the rest of the site) if this is will be looked at as a small scale way of “testing the waters” on other means of publishing news (or other media network programs) online.

I’ll be checking out the channel to see if the video news will do any good in improving content delivery (why try if it’s not expected to?). Some would argue that they’d need to have some content to show in the first place. I’m hoping that there IS content available, and that this medium would help in its delivery.

Joseph Barbera: 1911.03/24 - 2006.12/18

Joseph Barbera, co-founder of the Hanna-Barbera animation production company, died last 2006.12/18 from natural causes at the age of 95.

Hanna-Barbera gives fond memories of Saturday morning cartoons I watched when I was a kid. I grew up watching Scooby-Doo, The Jetsons, The Flinstones, Super Friends, and many other animated products they produced, as I’m sure many of my current generation did. The rights to their animation has been with Time Warner these past few years, which is why the shows they produced in the past are currently being played in Cartoon Network, along with the newer stuff the current kids are watching.

To William Hannah (1910.07/14 - 2001.03/22) and Joseph Barbera: Thank you very much for all the wonderful childhood memories.
