Cageflix

UPDATE: Cageflix is now known as Cage Your Queue, so as to not draw the ire of Netflix, from whom its lifeblood flows.

You love Netflix, but you hate how long it takes you to add every single movie Nicolas Cage has ever made into your queue. Now with Cageflix, you can do it with a single click.

Perdue Announces New Line of Netflix-Ready Chicken Breasts

Netflix-ready chicken breastsIn a stunning play for a greater share of the poultry and on-demand media markets, Perdue, maker of  cooked and uncooked poultry products, today announced its new line of Netflix-ready chicken breasts. The breasts, long-speculated about by analysts, feature an Intel Atom processor, a 720p 60Hz LCD screen, wireless-g connectivity, and 48 grams of protein. Seen as “game-changers” by many in the industry, Perdue’s new chicken breasts will easily connect to users’ home wireless networks, sync with their Netflix Instant Queues, and provide a light-but-filling protein in salads, pastas, and entrees.

Perdue spokespeople struck a jubilant tone after finally dealing a blow to other poultry manufactures like Butterball, which has seen large profit gains since its introduction of slot-loading Blu-Ray players into its whole uncooked turkeys. While the new breasts seem promising, some questions remain, like whether the breasts will have HDMI outputs and whether they will stay moist when broiled.
