Baked apples: Wilson s favorite! (Credit: Flickr/anjuli_ayer) It's the day before Thanksgiving and CNET's The 404 Podcast has a lot to be thankful for. As we go around the circle from Wilson, to me, then to our special guests Natali Del Conte of CNET's Loaded and Tim Geisenheimer, we realize we all have something in common: we're all very very thankful to Les Moonves for signing our paychecks twice a month! We're also want to give a big shoutout to all The 404 listeners and chat roomies- you guys put up with our idiocy on a daily basis and keep coming back for more, and we can't thank you enough for the support! Natali always brings the best stories to the show, and today (after a very strange confessional to Justin) she tell us that New York might seize control of your XBox 360, Sony Playstation 3, and Nintendo Wii. Similar to the emergency broadcast interruptions on your television, a new notification system will debut next year that will pause your gaming and warn you about imminent dangers, severe weather alerts, and other life-threatening situations. Unfortunately for Tim, it won't help you talk trash back to your 12 year old competition in Modern Warfare. As with most of The 404's episodes that come at the end of the week, today's show skips around and derails a lot. We get into a lengthy debate about Harry Potter vs. The Twilight Saga: New Moon, Ninja Assassin, a man marrying a video game character, and even play a listener-submitted 404 theme remix. Thanks, Same Slim! The most important thing to learn from today's episode comes from Natali and today's episode of Loaded: watch the episode and head over to www.nonprofitshoppingmall.com, where any money you spend through their retail partners will get routed do a nonprofit organization of your choice. It's very easy and only takes a few minutes to set up, so do your part and join the cause! No more shows for the rest of this Thanksgiving week, but we'll be back on Monday so give us a call at 1-866-404-CNET or e-mail at the404(at)cnet[dot]com and let us know how you're spending the long weekend. Have fun and be safe, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Rubik s TouchCube is a post from Chris Pirillo Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS FeedI m sure all of you have played with a Rubik s Cube at some point. There s a new version out the TouchCube. That s right it works via touch! This is the first completely electronic and solvable Rubik s Cube. Just slide the lighted squares with your finger from any side or direction and watch the move automagically! The colors pulsate, fade, and change while the TouchCube recharges in its stand.It s extremely addictive, let me tell you. I sat here for hours playing with it, attempting to solve it. There s a shuffle button, as well as a solve button. Yes, I admit it I used the solve button. You re always going to swipe whatever is the top-most section of the cube, so you ll have to turn it like you would the old one.There s even an undo button, as well as a hint button. That s pretty cool, and makes it easier to actually (maybe, if you re lucky!) solve this thing! You can tell someone that you re really good and then use the solve button to impress them! They ll never know the difference, right?You know you want one of these. Heck, you might even want to give a few as gifts to people this holiday season!

The cost of long term care can severely impact your family s future financial security. Requiring care in any setting is not a topic many of us want to talk about, for obvious reasons. But the fact is, 40 percent of Americans who need long term care are working age adults 18-64 - and this care comes with a very steep price tag. For example, according to recent data from Genworth Financial the national average cost for one year of home care is more than $42,000.More on planning for long term care

The 404 (Credit: CBS) The holiday season is upon us and we know most of you are struggling to "find the money" to buy gifts for your friends and family, so we make the long trip across the hallway and invite Jill Schlesinger on the show to help us keep our heads above water. Jill is editor at large for CBS MoneyWatch.com and has plenty of experience with financial planning, so listen up! As you might already know from past episodes featuring The Financial Decoder, Jill isn't the biggest fan of credit card companies, or "legalized drug dealers," as she calls them, but this time she has her scope pointed at the dangers of using a debit card. Despite proposed laws that would outlaw overdraft fees, Jill suspects we haven't seen the end of hidden fees and actually recommends budgeting this season with presents that won't leave you with an empty bank account. Your dear old mom doesn't really need that Tiffany's necklace or box of Godiva chocolates! Leave that stuff for Mother's Day, and just go out and have fun together--it's free, and it won't drain your bank account. Jill also drops knowledge on us (in a Bulgarian accent, no less) about how to develop optimistic (and realistic) financial goals for the year instead of frantically scrambling to plan around the holidays. With Valentine's Day coming up, it's too bad Jeff isn't here! Jill tells us the best way to stop the cycle of "hedonic spending" is to play a game she calls "Find the Money." Have fun and play games while balancing your spending and saving money at the same time?! Be sure to listen to this episode of The 404 Podcast to get the whole story!

Maybe the ad agency just didn t understand when they told them to put the . infront of the a and instead edited/corrected it to put it at the end. The brilliant move would have been to make it .aol and then file for a new TLD (top level domain) which I believe will be coming online in 2010. That would have been a home run, everything aol could have been .aol, so it could be engadget.aol, images.aol, email.aol etc. So I m just going to chock it up to advertising ignorance.

HP Photosmart Premium Review is a post from Chris Pirillo Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS FeedYes, this is a printer. It happens to be connected to my network wirelessly. It also boasts bluetooth features and a touch screen! This HP Photosmart Premium allows me to print, copy, fax and scan. It also allows me to connect to parts of the Internet, such as coupons, Google Maps and more!I can even print wirelessly using the HP iPrint application on my iPhone. It happens to be a free App, even! Without connecting my phone to the network, the App detected the printer on my network and sent the photo to it! How easy was that?!The coupons feature is pretty cool, even if I do prefer my own coupons. These are ones that you can sort by category, and print out to use in your local store. Enter your zip code, and receive coupons to local stores! Who doesn t love to save money?!I can also print a map out for myself, so that I don t end up lost anymore. I can target whatever location I want using Google Maps, and print out what I need. If you are subscribed to my Twitter, you know that my GPS system called me an idiot recently when I kept missing my turn. By printing out a map, that will hopefully never happen again!I didn t have to connect this printer to any computer in order to download updates or anything. This thing is really simple to use. If I wanted to, I could add or change the included widgets. This printer has just about every feature you could want, and then some! I love the fact that it s connected to my entire network!
