So, one of the richest people in Australia wants to construct Titanic II. Well, “wants” is the wrong world, he “is” constructing Titanic II. He’s commissioned a state-owned Chinese company to construct the ship. But wait, there’s more, he’s going to build it with the exact dimensions of the original ship, you know, the one that’s at the bottom of the North Atlantic. Doesn’t this seem a bit odd?

Doesn’t it seem like he’s really tempting fate here?

I was extremely interested when I heard about BO.LT. It was like Pinterest but instead of just one image it saves a permanent copy of a website for you. An archive like that is very useful to professional web designers and amateurs like myself. You can bolt a great design and keep it, even if it gets redesigned, you’ll have a copy your original inspiration. Also, you’ll be able to bolt sites before you redesign them, in order to have a copy of where you came from.

The concept is solid and with Pinterest soaring in popularity, I can see a similar rise for BO.LT as well.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted. It’s also been a while since I started AND finished an RPG as well. The to are in direct correlation with each other as since my “Greatest Geek weekend in a while” I did spend the time needed to finish Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of a New World and it was very enjoyable. At times, it felt like I was in a choose your own adventure movie.

The game is exactly what you’d expect from a game in the Tales series.

This past weekend I had the joy of doing one thing all geeks love to do. I played a video game. Yep. That’s it. I made it through the first 5 Chapters of Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of a New World. It wasn’t just that though. There was more to it. The things that happened this weekend just added to the excitement.

This weekend, while procrastinators thought out their tax strategies, I was lounging on the couch leveling my characters and basking in the glow of my Wii.

I am, very much, a worldly sports fanatic. I love baseball, but in the sports list of things I like to watch and stay on top of are also, soccer, football, basketball, lacrosse, racing, playoff hockey, cycling, rugby, and Aussie Rules Football, among many. So when big things happen in sports across the pond, I usually find out about them before most. Today was no different.
