what’s the point?

no idea really…

The 1v1 games in New Super Mario Brothers are really well done. One in particular where you send a bunch of Bomb-a-Bobs over to your friends DS had me laughing so hard that I about fell out of my chair. As soon as we figured the game out we loved it.

It’s nice that they packed so much into 1 cartridge, as if the giant mushroom wasn’t enough.


PSP versus DS Lite

The Nintendo DS Lite is crazy good. A whole gang of us here got our last week and the device combined with Brain Age caused a domino effect here at work. Gordon and gang went and cleaned out an EB Games of their inventory and more DS Lites are on the way for other coworkers. Who would have thought that working math problems and little puzzles would be the trigger for all of us to new handhelds.

Now my PSP sits there at my desk unused… anyone want to buy it and give it a home?


“50 People That Matter Now” List

I now work for Caterina instead of Chad, which isn’t much of a change since they are both awesome and I continue doing whatever it is that I do. Only difference is that now I get to say that I work for #13 on Business 2.0′s list of “50 People Who Matter Now”. That’s higher than Oprah ranks… Congrats to Stewart and Caterina, it’s bitchin’.

Speaking of “people that matter”, this last Hack Day, I got to work with Kevin Cheng on some stuff. Let me just tell you that he’s a fucking _Ninja_. Not only does he do great design, but he can code it up while he is designing. On top of that he manages to wade through my crappy markup and half eaten CSS to turn out some really nice stuff.


Hey, I’m on TechCrunch : )

Michael was at Hack Day and he did a nice write-up. The gang and I are down at the bottom. Check out Gordon, with 2 wins!
