Gwen met Jared one day during art class. Jared worked with a guy named Tyler. Tyler’s sister is a good friend of Gwen’s. While each one of these individuals are different, each of their stories dynamically interconnect. History is nothing but a set of overlapping stories that make up the interconnected web of a person’s [...]
I was thinking about Facebook Status and Twitter the other night. While I usually think of it as “Facebook Status vs. Twitter” a different thought came to mind. What if it was “Facebook Status then Twitter”? While the two services are basically the same when it comes to their purpose – life streaming – their [...]
I always remind myself to let everyone know before I am going to be away for 2 or more days. Somehow, though, I always manage to forget. Kind of like “Remember to take out the trash, remember to take out the trash, remember to take out the trash.” Then you go to leave, and you [...]
I used to spend a lot of time doing independent game development. The majority of my time was spent doing game design and marketing, with a smaller portion allocated to actual scripting. All the projects I worked on were multiplayer, which meant community development and somehow earning a profit while getting over the “barrier” of [...]

While I just wrote a post on how to track conversations online with Google Alert & GMail, I’m noticing that while the feeds are updating, it’s not always showing up in Google Reader 100% of the time. This is also a great time to mention something CK just wrote on a process of listening for [...]
I must admit that when I first thought of the list of companies that would embrace this “social media” thingy that has so strongly latched onto cyberculture as we know it, Dell wasn’t exactly on my list.
They weren’t on my list not so much because of Dell Hell or other such occurrences but simply because [...]
Confused? I know I was. Pretty designs from Logic+Emotion combined with some faint notion of what Google’s Orkut kept coming to mind. I kept thinking I would be able to use my ability to figure out what an acronym stands for with astounding accuracy, a skill I’ve spent many years honing. But I ended up [...]
I was in Wendy’s the other day and saw a picture of a guy with long, ugly, red pigtails. At first I was confused as to why on earth there was such an atrocious picture in Wendys to begin with. I looked down, hoping to glean some sort of insight from the slogan below. [...]
