    iPhone at 50 fathoms!

    From Gizmodo: H2O's iDive300 Case Review: An iPhone at 300 Feet Under the Briny Sea I'm really trying to understand why someone would want to use an iPhone while diving. I can understand wanting an MP3 palyer while swimming laps, but not while scuba diving. The article includes video, but it...

    Middleman un-aired, un-produced 13th episode

    I loved the Middleman TV series and was very disappointed when it was canceled. However, at the San Diego Comic Con the cast got together for a panel, and did a reading of the script for the final episode. I've just started watching it (stupid slow Youtube), so I don't know if it's any good, but...

I tended to not write anything down, and identify authors in my head by where their books were on the library shelves. Anyway what I remember was it was about a group from a world like ours...

    Has anyone else found good fan made L4D maps? I've played two so far, and... Dam it! is pretty good, but short. It's just one long level, but it's got two crescendo events and a climax. Rescue by helicopter. Nothing really special, but it's a nice change from the 4 maps I've played dozens of...
