Lego has just released their biggest set ever and happily it is the Ultimate Collectors Millenium Falcon! The price tag on this bad boy? $499.99. That some serious scratch - the Lego shop optimistically has set a limit of 5 of these per customer. I wonder if people really were like,”I got 5 g’s burning [...]

Some hot art for a cool, fall monday.
So the Emmys happened and it turns out that FOX didn’t like what some people had to say so they’re censoring ‘em. I’m no fan of Kathy Griffin, but she made sure to not thank Jesus in her acceptance speech, not thank him very emphatically and so she’s [...]

EVE Online’s one of those MMOG’s that’s pretty popular, not World of Warcraft popular, but then no one else is either. As far as I know, they are the first online game to hire a Chief Economist! It’s pretty cool, you can read the interview with this him, Dr. Eyjólfur “Eyjo” Guðmundsson where he talks [...]

I never thought I’d say this, but one of the coolest things I’ve seen in awhile is, apparently, in Arkansas! The Thorncrown Chapel in Eureka Springs, to be specific. It’s this crazy chapel made of local timber, in the midst of a grove in the forest, it’s very glassy, so seems open air and blends [...]

So you know I totally dug Arcade Reality. So it was with great psychedness that I received an email from the creator that he’d incorporated one of the changes I thought would be cool - that is, the ability to take a picture of something and use that as the badguys. Well, I asked and [...]

It’s only 10 days till iPhone and it has already received its first upgrade! That’s a right! Now your $500 or $600 is going to get you more than it was. Apple has juiced up the battery (and it would seem optimized the hardware because different usages have gone up different amounts, proportionally - [...]
