As luck would have it, there are two new featurettes for James Cameron 's film, exploring the brave...

Spotted this handy tip on one of our internal discussion aliases. Windows Media Player used to show you the running time of the file you where watching or listening to by default and how far along you where. However now by default it just shows you how far you have got, such as 03:55 (see below). To see how how far along the track and its total running time simply click...
