Watch The Hobbit "Making Of" video blog with Peter Jackson, in case you've missed it
Lord of the Rings is something every geek far and wide holds close to them, and when the books written by J. R. R. Tolkien were brought to the big screen, the journey finally felt complete… almost like a chapter in history was finished. To much excitement, Peter Jackson has taken on the project of bringing The Hobbit to life, telling the story before the Fellowship set out into Middle Earth towards the Black Gates of Mordor. Even more awesome, Peter Jackson has decided to start a video blog to document the making of The Hobbit as it happens — Videos below (almost 50 minutes of behind the scenes footage.)

Siri on iPhone 4s vs TellMe on Windows Phone -Video
Siri on iPhone 4s vs TellMe on Windows Phone -Video
When Siri arrived on the iPhone, the world sort of stood still for a bit, wondering if it would actually perform as advertised. I mean, the service that Apple bought (Siri) was pretty breathtaking to begin with, and on the iPhone it’s even better. TellMe is Windows Phone’s version of Siri, which was available way before Apple even announced Siri — you think Microsoft would have used that time to make it work properly.

"The Kinect Effect" - Microsoft was dumb to deny developers in the first place - Video
"The Kinect Effect" - Microsoft was dumb to deny developers in the first place - Video
When the Kinect was released to the public it immediatly sparked ideas for better applications than just video games, but Microsoft did everything they could to “crack down” on 3rd party developers messing with Kinect. Developers hacked it anyways and essentially forced Microsoft to take the modding community seriously, because what they were creating was all incredible. Microsoft may not have the forward thinking required to see when something has potential, but they sure as hell know how to get us excited!

Dad of the year builds his son a Portal inspired bedroom -- (Video)
You wish your parents were this cool. No, seriously — you really do, just admit it. I mean, how can you not be jealous of this kid whose entire room was decked out from top to bottom with Portal inspired furniture, complete with Companion Cube’s to solve the room’s puzzle. Oh, and don’t forget the security camera’s that represent GlaDOS’ every watchful eye.

Samsung's Galaxy S II commercial gives Apple a sting but still makes us laugh - Video
Samsung's Galaxy S II commercial gives Apple a sting but still makes us laugh - Video
“I can’t get a Samsung, I’m creative” says the neck-beard touting, iPhone tapping Yuppie. “Dude, you’re a barista…” — That’s got to be one of the greatest lines in commercial history. Don’t get us wrong, this commercial is a clear stab at Apple fans, but as the owners of many Apple products we find this absolutely awesome and refreshingly hilarious.

Yoda appears in "Boil Japan" Cup of Noodles ad -- (Video)
Yoda appears in "Boil Japan" Cup of Noodles ad -- (Video)
“May the force be with Japan,” says the exiled Jedi master. I can see the merit in this; perhaps an attempt to give ol’ Japan a pat on the back after the Tsunami / Earthquake ordeal it had to go through. A tragic set of events to be sure — but I’m a little baffled as to why Yoda was chosen to market the Cup of Noodles brand. Can anyone explain this, or is it just simply another case of Lucas selling out, in which case suprised I would not be.
