So, with the addition of my Asus EEE, I now have a total of 5 operable computers, 4 of which I regularly use. One is my download computer/DVD player/media streamer for my television. One is a laptop that is no longer portable (bad power port) so it is permanently resigned to a dock […]

I don’t know if any of you out there use Celtx for your script-writing/preproduction/planning needs, but I have a little tip for you if you do.
Celtx 1.0 just came out, by the way. From what I gather, unless you use it to write comic book scripts or use the Outliner, you won’t notice much […]

…when he pulled the mighty Excalibur from the stone.
For you see, that is exactly how I felt as I opened the package I got from NewEgg.com. Electricity crackled in the air. My knife found it’s way into my hands, slashing through the box’s tape as if it had a mind of it’s own. […]

I know years ago […]

The new issue of BlenderArt Magazine was just put online, which reminded me that I’ve been meaning to put up a short list of all the sites I go to for Blender related help:
First, the online Blender Manual. Usually my first stop when trying get my teeth into a new feature.
Second, the BlenderArtists.org forum. […]

Coolest game ever!!!!!!ONE!!

January 30th, 2008

Hey kids, do you like cool adventure games like Legend of Zelda and Diablo? Do you like comedy? You should check out Dink Smallwood.

Let me set this up […]

Food for thought

Ebay’s rise shows exactly what happens to competitors when a network effect gets so strong that all sellers (in this case, creators) and all buyers (viewers) are forced to use a single dominant website.
