LG hooks up with YouTube

youtube on lgVideo's on mobile phones. What a novel invention. Not only do you have to pay for the data rates associated with downloading each video, but you get stuck with watching them on a tiny screen (expect if you have an iPhone). Needless to say, it's what the market demands.

This isn't the first time LG has teamed up with Google. They have an agreement to pre-install other Google services including Google Search, Maps, Gmail on its devices.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
