I’m sort of new to this blogging thing. I still only have a handful of blogs that I read regularly, and I’m always on the prowl to find more to read. Because I care about what strangers have to say. I really do. I found Binary Bonsai today. Maybe everyone already knows about this site. But I just found it, and it was full of news that I hadn’t read elsewhere. To list a few interesing bits:
- Bioware Announces Mass Effect - It’s a “Revolutionary Action-RPG set in a spectacular vision of the future”. It’s for the Xbox 360. Maybe I will have to get an Xbox afterall. Jade Empire was an awesome game, I can’t wait to see what they have going next!
- Orson Scott Card Review Serenity - He wrote Ender’s Game, one of the best books I’ve ever read. Really. Though there’s a great interview with him at Salon. It’s five years old, but I still remember it from when it came out. The most standout quote, “I don’t want to know if the book he wrote is so different than the beautiful one I read.” But a great author talking about a great movie is worth a look, right?
- Pixar not Leaving Disney - It’s a misleading title, because the entry actually links to a commentary on why Pixar will be unable to leave Disney and will ultimately have to repartner with them because Disney owns the sequel rights to everything - Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc. (my fav), and The Incredibles. So maybe it’s right, but it isn’t a done deal yet.
I love the internet. All this information so easily accessible. You just have to persist until you find it all. All of it.
