I recently decided to play another trial version of Eve Online just for fun. I just ended up being pirate-y and just fooling around.
But while I was playing it dawned on me. “Space” MMO’s as it is now will never hit critical mass (ala World of Warcraft) for one reason: association with the environment.

I found this blog post through Google’s blog. It is a couple who recently got married. Thanks to Google (especially Google Docs) they managed to organise their wedding with ease. In Google docs there were RSVP lists and loads of info on the wedding. Google Maps was also used to show the people the location […]

I’ve just watched the live stream from Blizzard’s WWI and Diablo 3 has been confirmed! I am certain the whole gaming community is going crazy. Heck if it wasn’t my mothers birthday today and my good gaming friends weren’t away I would’ve celebrated it with a beer.
So far Diablo 3 looks awesome. To […]

With the recent news that domain names would unbuckle, is it a good thing? In short it would create loads of more extensions to the usual current top-level domains (+-250).
To be honest I’m not really that phased about it. I’m not sure, but could this mean that .com’s and the rest of the top-level domains […]

This could easily be solved by editing .htaccess files and adding appropriate code that turns off Mod Security for specific files and directories.
If you have a […]

I was woken up this morning by my dad phoning me to answer a maths problem… It was fun.
Since my brain was jumpstarted, I immediately went to check what Blizzard’s latest splash screen would reveal. To my dismay, it just created further chaos. The latest rune was from Starcraft. *sigh*. The way they are going […]

Bwhuaha! I stumbled upon Paris Hilton’s MySpace. What a joke. That girl is so full of herself. It makes me nauseous. There is loads and loads of pics of her on it. To top it off, she has her own song playing in the background. Go check it out.

Well here we are. My new blog. :). With this blog I can talk about more than just games. As the days go on I will most likely talk about loads of music, website ponderings and the future of the internet.

Because I am venturing into other areas besides game dev (websites and music!), I think it is time for a revamp.
