Either that or its just getting more airtime. Regardless, internet security will never go back from this. I just wished they would take apart something that actually deserved it, like Facebook. Fuck that privacy whore.

⇒ Classy GIFs

this website is hella-cool: from me to you
they seem to specialise in really classy GIFs, which take on a magical quality, mostly because of the high-quality photography

note: just appreciating Jamie Beck's work, not pinching it--I don't own or have any involvement in it.

⇒ Nintendo 3DS!

some writeups:
kotaku: hands on | first look gallery | 3ds known specs | star fox returns! | games announced

gizmodo: writeup | what is it? | hands on

I'm really interested in this--not just for the 3d, but Starfox is back! And the graphics do look very good.

Unrelatedly, general reaction to the handheld is so far very impressed.

⇒ Sony announce their next big 'Move'

their lack of creativity and originality have pushed my disgust to a new level--moments like these make me happy Apple killed the Walkman and forced them to make iPod compatible products.

I'm very underwhelmed by this first iteration, but I think with future versions this could be a very good product. Not necessary, but still very good.

⇒ Google had another big week

Google Buzz (i hate it so much, it almost undid all the goodwill of Google in one dick move) and 1Gbps internet service--please bring it to Sydney! I may forgive the whole Buzz shenanigan if you do it right.

Why I hate Buzz: it f#cked up my privacy. I use one email account, and email different ppl. Some of those ppl should never get wind of what I'm emailing others--privacy man, privacy!

old game review alert:
an honest (and synchonristic) review of Super Smash Bros Brawl (Wii).

Hey! These guys are ludicrously on the money: "...the hideously bloated MGS4...", "...outdated controls...". Finally someone in tune with my gaming sensibilities!
