Ooh -- a friend of mine is a character in RDR too! I don't even know anything about it to know if it's my kind of game or not, but I think I'm now obligated to look into that...

From the Vault: "Foster is down!"
Today is the first day in a week that I didn't get up at 4am to go to work. I really wish I could say what I've been working on, because it's awesome, but I have to keep that information in a secure location for at least a few more days. It was pretty great that I got to sleep late - I rolled ou...
Wil, I loathe Feature Creep! The new Nintendo DSi apparently sacrificed backwards compatibility (as well as the ability to use things like rumble packs and play Guitar Hero) in order to install a digital camera. What?!? I will stick to the DS Lite for as long as possible.
Also, just wanted to tell you that I just today finished reading Just a Geek, which I got for Xmas, and loved it!

boating our software
Yesterday, I started writing a monthly column for Amazon's End User Blog. For my first column, I looked at a really cool device that's battling something I call Feature Creep: ...it’s increasingly difficult to find things that do just one thing, and do it very well. I blame this on something I ...
Every once in a while, I catch a really obscure reference that makes me proud of being a geek. Thanks to you and your Hithchikers game reference...this is one of those times. A bright spot in my otherwise kind of crappy Thursday. Thank you.

Geek in Review: RIAA Wants to Kill Internet Radio. Again.
I had a really upsetting dream (which mercifully ended when I woke up this morning) in which I was being chased by a giant spider. It was one of those "I can't seem to move very quickly to get away from this thing that's chasing me" things, and upon waking, I knew exactly why it invaded my otherw...
Hey -- Have you read the Richard Matheson story "I Am Legend", which Omega Man was based on? (Also the source material for the old Vincent Price flick "Last Man on Earth".) If you haven't, I highly recommend it -- it reads much better as a story than as a movie. There's also a graphic novel version, though I can't remember who adapted it.

Geek in Review: Sci-Fi Guilty Pleasures
This week's Geek in Review is a look at some of my favorite 1970s Sci-Fi movies that some may call cult classics, but I call guilty pleasures. Though the '70s were a prolific decade for big studio Sci-Fi films -- particularly the "pre-Star Wars" half of the decade -- quantity clearly won over qua...
