Maybe it’s the way you’ve become, or maybe it was just the way you were born.
But wouldn’t it be cool to look like one of the characters from Frank Miller’s Sin City?
Well, now you can with the art tutorial on how to create the “Sin City look” in a picture. Check out the […]

Karin Slaughter has a hilarious short up on making a coke roast.  So if you’re looking for some quick vitals for tomorrow, it might be worth checking out.  Or if you just need a laugh.
It’s done in the style of an old cinema flick.

Now, this is just a suggestion. But I think Patricia Vance, president of the ESRB needs some sort of “persuasion device” to deal with congress.  Either that or we need to replace her with someone with the IQ of a turnip that won’t actually take their job seriously, but will stoicly dissemble to the congress […]

Suzanne Cooper, it seems, is a big Omen fan.  So much so that she was gunning for about as many sixes in her newborn Damien’s birthing as possible.
Considering he was born at 6AM on 06/06/06 and came in at 6lb 6oz, if I had an award to give for most obsessive fan behaviour she’d take […]

Once upon a time words like “noob” could be counted on to be the domain of script kiddies or slung about on IRC goofing on the same.

Following up a story about an undocumented flaw in Word, to which my reaction was “people still use that? ” Andy Updegrove has written an article about press stories and how they spread.

I’ve always been a fan of picking apart the flaws in literary works and movies.  The people at Howstuffworks, though, seem to be legends in the field.
They pick out factual inaccuracies in the first bits of the book (and likely, movie) without breaking a sweat.  This is before getting to the meat of the work, […]

There is an outfit selling laptops on Ebay by the name of ClassicComputerRecovery. In one of their sales it states, and I quote, “We are not technical people here and do not have the knowledge, time or resources to repair this unit. This item should prove […]

As you may have heard, Nintendo changed the name of their next generation console from the er.. revolutionary sounding revolution to the Wii.
I can almost see their American PR people saying “guys.. look.. we know that you like the name and all.  We’re just not sure how it’ll fly in anywhere that’s not Japan…”
