Too familiar to notice

What if your homepage changed? Would you notice? What if you didn’t notice and upon finally realizing it you investigated and found that it had changed on October 24th of last year? That’s how i feel.

Penny Arcade + ESRB = marketing genius

The ESRB apparently have somebody who is “with it”. Hiring the authors of Penny Arcade to make awareness materials targeted at gamers is absolutely genius. I would guess that half the people reading this are outraged that the Hot Coffee mod even exists and the other half are ticked about the anti-gamer, anti-free speech and largely ignorant backlash. Wherever you fall on the “spectrum” i hope you can appreciate the awesomeness of leveraging Penny Arcade to raise awareness of the ESRB ratings on video games.

i got all kinds of tired of entering posts in phpmyadmin and handcoding stuff like rss feeds. I think the previous incarnation of the blog served it’s purpose in terms of teaching me web-design (unless you count the horrible color scheme) and web programming (it wasn’t pretty, but it was better than Geppert’s php)

Anyway, i’m gonna work on getting the old posts ported over. I think this is dave’s blog 3.0, i’ll do my best to get 2.0 over here (shouldn’t be hard, it’s in a database), 1.0 will probably languish in some folder on here that i’ll forget about until some future date.
