In case you’d forgotten, I write another blog: Global Nerdy, where I cover articles of interest to programmers, techies, nerds and all you folks who like keeping up with all things geeky. Listed beow are some of the most recent postings:

Heck, you could even put the controller down and they still can’t do anything. You could even walk away from the Xbox and—crazy idea—talk to someone who’s been sitting here for the past hour wondering if that was in fact an actual conversation she had earlier about going to the movies this afternoon and not just an incredibly realistic dream.”
