More Machinima

Mike sends a link to this video he and some friends did for “Re: Your Brains” in the World of Warcraft universe. Lots of undead types jumping around making trouble – freakin zombies…

Internet to Coulton: Stop Talking

Did an interview with Chris Miller for his Unquiet Desperation podcast. Listen here – thanks Chris!

PopSci Podcast

Now it is time for me to reveal my secret: in my spare time (say what?) I’ve been working on a new podcast for Popular Science magazine. As you know, I am their contributing troubadour, and we all thought it was about time I started actually contributing. Each week I’ll be doing an interview with somebody interesting, usually related in some way to a story in the current issue of the magazine. The first one is with Gordon Bell, a Microsoft researcher who for many years has been working on a project called MyLifeBits in which he digitally captures and archives various aspects of his daily life – like some kind of coo-coo cybernetic memory extension. Give it a listen (and please subscribe so that I look good).

Yes: there is a theme song.

Cute Monkey Poll

OK, time to vote. You’ll find the poll over there in the sidebar. Thanks to everyone who submitted, I think they’re all great. Remember, we are looking for the design that you would most like to see on a T-shirt (and buy). If you vote none of the above, leave a comment here about what you think is missing – maybe some different text would clinch it, or maybe the monkey is cute, but the wrong color (nice talk, you effing racist). Voting will close sometime this weekend, depending on how I feel and when I am looking at my computer. I am drunk with power!
