Hi all
I had a funny skeleton of an idea for a card game and I want to share it.

I started working on my McLuhan short story/screenplay this morning (I'm finding it's both.) The title is "The Medium and the Messenger: Marshal McLuhan Versus the Singularity - A Hypertext Adventure." (I know it's long. I want it to be comically long.)
I'm pretty sure it's going to be the greatest ...

I bit off a little more than I can chew with my tic-tac-toe project. Do you feel like working on it with me? In particular, I would appreciate just some overall mentoring. It would probably shorten my AS learning curve quite a bit. Also, if you feel like writing any ...

Google Custom Search Engine
Everyone,
This is the Google custom search engine. By manually adding a small list of sites, you can perform "custom" searches over only those urls, useful for a custom "imdb+apple trailers+ entertainment weekly+ X" search for movies, "wired, engadget, boingboing" technology blogs, etc. Chris, I ...

Hey ya'll. I just had an idea for a simple Flash shooter game. Here are some resources:

Shadowrun
Geometry Wars
Lawnmower Man
The Legend of Zelda

I just finished my first photoshop project - I wanted to make some sweet hacking themed wallpapers. I'm pretty happy with the results. Check em out and tell me what you think. There's a black and white one, and a black, white, and pink one. I ...

Hey everyone, just wanted to say, Jesse and A-dawg are going to be writing the last segment of the first cycle. Then, the rotation begins anew. I can't wait, honestly. The current Tad Williams is a bit of a newb, so I'm interested in learning a bit more about his ...

Elmer (and others with input),
I'm working through the database design for our engine while I'm at lunch here, and I've encountered a question I want some input on.
In order to edit a page, should you have to click some kind of "edit" link on the page you want to edit, ...

I'm toying with the idea of doing an RPG for the iPhone. I'll prattle incessantly about it when I see everyone. For now, though, I made a little script to create 'tracer' graphics to draw atop for character ideas. It will have specific preset 3-D poses ...

I made that file uploader yesterday (mostly), but when I looked again at the code after the fact, I realized it was ass-ugly. That was ok though, because I had wanted a project where I could use OOP in PHP, and there it was.
