I’ve mentioned my enthusiasm for Last.fm recently. It’s an interesting service whose value isn’t immediately obvious when you first look at it. It plays music? You think. Why would I want to tell them what I’m listening to? You ask. Aren’t I just giving them information for nothing? You wonder. The value becomes apparent when [...]
Greetings. It is a somewhat cloudy, drizzly Saturday in Moncton. A perfect afternoon to sit around and play video games, if that’s the kind of thing you do. Or blog about them, if you’re me. There’ve been a bunch of big game releases in the last few weeks for the Xbox360. The long-awaited Gears of [...]
Bleszinki told the website that there are no plans for a PC version. “Here’s the problem right now,” he said, “the person who is savvy enough to want to have a good PC to upgrade their video card, is a person who is savvy enough to know bit torrent to know all the elements so [...]

It’s been awhile since I’ve read a math story (I last read, “The Mystery of the Aleph: Mathematics, the Kabbalah, and the Search for Infinity” (Amir D. Aczel)). [...]
I’ve been shopping around for an iPod dockable portable speaker system for awhile. Some friends have Altec Lansing boom-boxes that they are pretty happy with so I looked to see what they have available. For $150 I ordered the im600 from the Apple Store and after figuring out my new address, they had it here [...]
I went out last weekend and did a little video-game shopping. While I occasionally punctuate breaks in Halo3 with bouts of Rock Band, I do sometimes crave more singular adventures. So I rifled through the cheap bin at the local EB and picked up Dark Messiah Might and Magic Elements for $29.99. “Dark Messiah of [...]
This is just a shout-out to my heavy rotation page which I just updated. It’s got a list of some of the albums I’ve been listening to a lot lately, though to be honest, anything in my collection right now has to compete against the staggering “In Rainbows” by Radiohead. Since getting the disc box, [...]
