Evil League of Evil

Submit your video application to the Evil League of Evil, and you might end up as a DVD extra on the Dr Horrible DVD.

Laptops out, twittering along, hoping to get on TV! (A small handful of us managed!)

Spore: Turning Gold into Lead

Interesting decription of why Spore isn’t as good a game as hoped. My interest in it certainly waned between playing around with the Creature Creator through to the game’s release.

This is either the Twitter-scanning nerve-center of the Current TV Hack the Debate coverage, or we're having a pledge drive.

Boxer: Mac-Friendly DOS Emulation

Nice wrapper for DOSBox, which allows you to bundle up DOS games on OS X. I look forward to a little light “Jones in the Fast Lane” this evening.

LOLZoo!!! at San Francisco Zoo (Saturday September 27, 2008) - Upcoming

This weekend, an excuse to wander round the SF Zoo shooting photos, in the name of the “I Can Has Cheezburger” book.
