ingenious game, with no glitz
It has been a long time since I stopped playing new computer game - I have not yet played the Half Life 2 (the one that was released on the Source game engine). I rarely follow any new game releases and YET this game demo has me mesmerized.
The game that I am talking about is the Crayon Physics Deluxe which has a demo on youtube. The game allows you to draw objects and those objects become part of the game. The goal is to create objects that propel a ball toward a star. I know, this sounds pretty simplistic, but check out the demo before you make a judgment.

tv conspiracy
A quote by Steve Jobs
When you're young, you look at television and think, There's a conspiracy. The networks have conspired to dumb us down. But when you get a little older, you realize that's not true. The networks are in business to give people exactly what they want. That's a far more depressing thought. Conspiracy is optimistic! You can shoot the bastards! We can have a revolution! But the networks are really in business to give people what they want. It's the truth.
The crap dished out on the Indian tv is mind numbingly bad. The actors in those serials go through the complete spectrum of human emotions in 30 minutes (even less than 30 minutes, if you factor in the ads). The really disheartening part about the whole thing is that there is no conspiracy.
