I haven’t had me a good game of Warfish in a little while. And, it used to be that in order to play, someone would have to send you an invite. Now, current players can recruit others to join the fun. Not only that, but you can watch your network of recruits grow. [...]

neighbor’s birthday, we think GourmetStation.com’s “Get Out of the Dog
House” video contest might strike a chord. GourmetStation.com is a company
that creates in-home dining experiences in four regional varieties –
Tuscan, Cajun, Parisian and Asian-Fusion – and is a great gift idea when

So, it seems as though GM has fully embraced blogging, podcasting, vlogging, photo albums…etc. A recent entry on the GM blog indicates that they will be extending the warranty beginning in 2007. They state that this is, at least in part, due to feedback they received on the blog.  Cool, huh?

The cult sensation of the summer: Geeks on a Podcast!

Is this serious?

Gizmodo points us to a video of some folks abusing their MacBook. Thankfully, it was protected by invisibleSHIELD. The drywall screws certainly did a number on the counter-top, but the shiny, white Apple notebook computer emerged unscathed.
The folks behind the invisibleSHIELD sent some gadget protection BostonGeek’s way. I was happy to test [...]

Starting a new job has sucked all my free time away.  It’s always so exhausting trying to absorb all sorts of new information, and I just haven’t had the motivation to write anything here.  I am slowly starting to adjust, and as such, I hope to begin writing a bit more.
Anyway, one thing I was [...]

Ok, so you probably have heard that the Xbox 360 update to GRAW was available for download as of yesterday afternoon. You probably also heard that it cost 1200 Microsoft Points.
