Facebook is a little like reading a really awful novel. It’s badly written, badly plotted, and full of characters among whom one can’t distinguish – they all have the same voiceMichael J. Smith
The same way happy hardcore gets a bonus from listening in summer Tegan & Sara get a bonus from listening in autumn
(P.S. it’s a shame we don’t spell autumn ottom, because then we could make puns about ottomen)

The Microwriter (1983) is a handheld portable word-processor with a chording keyboard. It was followed up by the Quinkey (1984)—an add-on for the BBC Micro computer. Unfortunately, neither was successful and the concept of a chording keyboard was too alien for an early 1980s computer user. (More details at the Buxton Collection)

Shadowrun page from a Nintendo Magazine System preview (issue #11, August 1993). Every few months, I get to urge to play the Shadowrun SNES game on a handheld, which isn’t going to happen until series creator Jordan Weisman tracks down the rights. :o/
The screenshots shown on the left side of the page are from the Game Boy edition of Shadowrun that Beam Software created but never released. It was a sidescrolling platformer in which you played a Street Samurai — psyche, that’s actually Edd the Duck, a game based on the BBC character and released by Beam’s subsidiary Lazerbeam.

[Via Do Go On]Holy shit, Tiny Cartridge linked to this blog! Awesome!
The SNES Shadowrun was a cool game (except wandering all the fuck over the world trying to figure out who taught Negotiate). Pen & paper Shadowrun looked kinda terrible (a lot ‘cuz of their D6 for everything fetish) but with the BBS conceit it had the best supplement books I’ve ever seen. To this day I think Corporate Shadowfiles is a perfect introduction to corporate finance.

interactive installation “Measuring the Universe” by Roman Ondak in which visitors mark their height in black ink on a white wall, representing a star in a network of celestial bodies to symbolize the space each individual takes up in our vast universe.
