Podcasts Killed the Video Star? 2008-04-11 13:04:37
In honesty, I do not believe this is in any way the end of videos. Sites like YouTube, Yahoo Videos, and Online Casino Reports are moving to new directions, with higher quality videos, live feeds, and an ever growing selection of subjects, which with regard to our own, will include casino reviews, game guides and educational specials.
No, videos are nowhere near their end. You can continue finding them regularly updated at OCR Live.
But the news for today: Online Casino Reports enters podcasts.
Those easy to download video and audio files that we can take with us on our iPod player or other. And yes, we are in advanced stages of setting a platform that will be most convenient for you to use, and will give you a chance to take Online Casino Reports with you on the train to work, or i Read more:Podcasts

Commending the US Congress Hearings 2008-04-07 09:45:16
Of all the recent news stories and developments
that we have reported on our news pages recently, one stands out. Whether
we be located in Europe, South Africa, China or the moon, last week's Congress
Hearings in Washington, DC are significant. They are also worth our response,
here on this blog entry.
First off the bat, we would like to commend the
House Financial Services Committee and its Chairman, Rep. Barney Frank, for holding
this important meeting. The subject is far too important, not only for the
millions of online gamblers in the United States, but for reasons that include free
speech and trade.
The discussion, at this level, was long awaited.
That is even more obvious today, after we got the chance to hear the banking
industry officials, who complained about the unfair burd

Our dear Weekly Edition presenter Kate has been travelling
recently quite a lot (she's visited Bulgaria a few weeks ago and is currently
visiting Finland). Only it's not for work that she's been flying, nor is it for
gambling!
We've been trying to keep up with her, and to do so we
figured we'd send her around
the world ourselves.
Check out our latest Weekly Edition video, where Kate takes you on brief tours of the United States, South
Africa, and the United Kingdom, all of which have been through some important
processes of late, and are witnessing changes to their gambling laws and
culture.
You can pick up on each country, and others too, on the News
section at the site, where we report on developments as they happen and express
our writers' opinions too, sometimes.

Harmless Gambling Pranks for April Fool's Day 2008-04-01 06:14:40
Surely Bush hasn't admitted to gambling. There is no
evidence that he has ever gambled before, at least not since his life-changing
decision to "recommit my heart to Jesus Christ," in his own words.
So what in the world are we up to in writing Bush Admits to Gambling
on Online Casino Reports?
It is all part of an April
Fool's Day prank that we tried to
slyly introduce among our headline news, somewhere between an update from Josh on
the difficulties in legalizing online gambling in South Africa, and another Weekly Edition from Kate.
Which is to say that normally we do stick to news worthy
news. We bring you informative, if entertaining articles, videos
and RSS feeds. This time we took the liberty to play with you a bit, fool
with you, if you may, for this festive day, April Fool's D
Gambling Discussions at the Forum 2008-03-30 16:52:30
You might have reached us from the forum, or else can go there now.
It's just that we have earlier announced the new blog at our forum so that our members, already registered at the site, could visit us here and see what's going on as well.
The forum is where we discuss topics regarding gambling, and regarding the site, while we make announcements and tell stories (like this one) here at the blog. We usually cover new or existing features, just like our discussion forum (back full circle again), which we'll take the opportunity to do right away.
At the forum, we have designated rooms for the main topics that we believe interest you, and we can always grow as we as a community desire. Poker and Casino Game fans, new to the games and experienced, and whoever is interested in the lates Read more:Gambling

Eleven years of virtual existence on the web.
Eleven years of serving the online gambling community.
Eleven years of changes taking place in this terrific
industry.
None as great and exciting as this one.
Welcome to the new Online Casino Reports.
The online gambling world has had its heydays, even its holidays, and surely
some naydays too. Those are familiar emotions for any gambler.
We believe that the launch of our new web community, social network site,
counts among the former; on top of the list, no less.
We can bombard you with numbers, facts and figures. We can tell you how the
industry has evolved and reached this day. But then again, you can find this
information on our site; visit the Industry Timeline
for more.
Perhaps we will do some of that in later entri
Finding Online Casino Reports 2008-04-21 08:57:01
Search and you shall find. Someone said that sometime. We say it all the time.
Honest to our motto, that Online Casino
Reports represents and serves the gambling community, we wish to share the various places on the web where you can find us. And there are many such ways.
First, naturally, and most obviously, is our website. You can enter the URL in your web browser, save it to your bookmarks as a favorite or access it any other way, any time of day or night.
Secondly, you can visit this blog and from here learn what's new on the site and access it too. The banner on the top right of this screen will send you straight to the site.
But the ways to find us are far greater than those we provide. For instance, our news articles are cited on such gambling websites as Gambling911 an
Bonuses on a Platter 2008-04-24 09:14:49
To best introduce the Online Casino Reports Services, we'd like to start with one. Bonus Hunter.
Specializing in one element of the game, namely bonuses, the
Service functions a lot like the other Services on the site, such as Poker Fever, Money Train, and the rest.
You can reach Bonus Hunter through the site's homepage, the
Services channel or by following this link. This is what you will find:
A quick look at the list will reveal a bountiful of bonuses
- all a click away.
In the central column, you will find a drop-down menu. You
can pick what bonus you are interested in and the list will organize so that it
will display these bonuses, anywhere online, in ascending or descending order.
The choices are Welcome bonuses (the default value), Multiple Deposit Bonuses

Back to Basics 2008-04-28 08:37:23
There is plenty to do on the site, this much is clear. If
anything, we confused you with all the options. Should I count a few? [ocrlive/weeklyedition/|Weekly
Edition] videos, the fun way to catch up with the week's top news stories; Services
for finding the top bonuses of the moment, most active poker rooms, and the top
overall gambling action in real time; informative reviews,
with videos accompanying videos, such as the one we have produced and uploaded
for 32 Vegas Casino.
And more.
But as the title of this blog entry implies, we also offer
basics; the simple joys in life. What other joy more simple, or simple more
joyful, than Pacman?
We've set up a complete games section, where you
can play games for free. Be it to pass the time, or even to practice your
skills, esp Read more:Basics
