- Gamasutra interview with Susan O'Connor. I got to meet Susan at the Game Writer's Conference in 2005 and she's a wonderful woman; I'm tickled to see her making a name for herself with Bioshock and Gears of War.
- YouTube will share revenue with content creators. This is potentially huge. Google as IPTV megapowerhouse.
- Joy of Tech on how to buy Windows Vista. So true.
- iPhone Shuffle. There's a second paper on mobile media in this. (Joke, people, joke.)
- Adult Swim Fix now Mac-friendly. 'Bout damn time.
- 24 Time Warp. This season Jack's running around in 2012. No joke.
- Networks want credit for DVR'ed content. Again, well, duh. I wonder how this will change the Nielsen numbers for Sci-Fi?
- Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. This game is crack, I tell you. The hottest DS game currently in my collection.
- Henryjenkins.org: Front Line Report on the Boston Game Jam. Dan Roy guestblogs at Henry's site, weighs in on our experience making Conflict Diamond.
- Mint hits 2.0. Mad ups to Inman and company – this looks superdeluxe.
- Keyword Manager updated to 1.1. This is my second favorite iPhoto plugin, after the Flickr Export.
- David Edery on Indie Games and XBLA. Very cool stuff.
- Visual Voicemail-esque Dashboard widget. Pretty cool, although I'm unwilling to stomach the additional cost for now.
- Wii Games Channel possible. Looks like Reggie and company are gunning for XBLA – this should be fascinating.
- Running Vista on a Mac. Wierd Windows fanboy writing here ("makes Mac OS X look dated"? them's fighting words!), but interesting nevertheless.
- Bill Gates: TV irrelevant in five years. Maybe. I like the idea, and people already know I'm a huge fan of indie IPTV development.
