Finally?

Did I actually stumble on a lead to the whereabouts of Noel Singidas?

I won't post any details yet.. Just that I already asked for his contact details from someone.. I just hope that that person knows the same Noel Singidas that we do..

...

If I was right.. If I really FINALLY got in contact with Noel Singidas.. What then?

More Google Fun!

On second thought, it's not that awesome..

They Fly!

Nap's in Cebu again for the entire week. (It's his birthday today, by the way..)

Right now, I think I don't care whether my bosses actually stumble upon this blog post:

Your Job Satisfaction Level: 41%

Your job is about average. There are some parts you really enjoy, and some parts that stress you out.
It's possible that you need a small change. Maybe you should switch companies or positions.
It's also possible that you're simply burned out. No job is perfect, even a great one.
Give yourself a personal day to think about your career goals - and if your current job is helping you achieve them.

A Tinge Of Geekiness

Greg Costikyan writes:
It really irritates me when people say things like "we don't need stars in the game industry." What they generally mean is "so-and-so acted like an idiot and I don't like that," or alternatively "I don't want to have to pay you more."

The fact is that, we have stars. We just don't acknowledge them. Which is why this is both hilarious and sad.

Follow the link (http://www.youhaventlived.com/qblog/2007/QBlog240607B.html)! It's an anecdote about the creators of MUD showing off to a kid gamer at a store -- 5w337! Now that is one thing I would just love to do..

Lots of quotes, some good, some bad: http://www.witty-quotes.com/all_1.html

The AlphaGrip AG-5 (http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1949084,00.asp): Nap and I were conceptualizing something like this a decade ago, but it was a general-purpose humanoid robot controller (read: mech/a) and not a keyboard replacement -- this is nothing, though: with what we had thought of then, you could twist the controller and it could represent something like pitch or yaw in a flight simulation and you still had something like the PlayStation controller's analog joysticks. This AlphaGrip thing is still kinda cool, if what the makers claim is true, where with around 30-60 hours of touch-typing practice, you could still reach 60 words-per-minute with it! =D
