Peter Ha is walking because of one thing: hope. And modern medicine. So two things, but the hope thing is much more interesting.

When Peter Ha was little he had an advanced case of rickets that… → Read More
The Golden Joystick awards were handed out earlier today. (Golden Joystick is a British-based video game award show that, I think, has a little more credibility than Spike Video Game Award, primarily because it’s been around for 26 years.) Anyway, you can watch the entire broadcast online here. In the interest of preventing OMG SPOILERS, you’ll have to click through to see the list of… → Read More
Congrats, Steve ol’ buddy! Your life long dream has finally come true!

I’ve got a friend working on a few things with his Red One that will probably win a few awards as well (hey man lets hang out btw), but this film, made for a 168-hour film contest, is apparently quite good. It’s about “a merciless society that segregates its undesirables” — in other words, America — and I understand it is very well-done, having won about half… → Read More
Hey Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass, you earned it. Nice work nabbing the Best Handheld Game of the Year award at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco.

I bet that you, me, and even Dupree all use Google for our web search. But when it comes to mobile phone-based searching, it’s really anyone’s game. Know why? Because I’m trying to make a call or send 300 texts within the next hour and I really don’t have time to use my phone for searching. In fact, chances are, if I actually have a WAP or Internet plan for my phone, I… → Read More

Apple’s second-generation iPod Shuffle has been incredibly well received. The design truly is wonderful and even made me pick up one this past Hanukkah for my friend. Now Apple is getting some well-deserved recognition for its iPod Shuffle. Jobs and Co. took home a top honors award for best consumer product design during the 2007 Design Week Award in the UK. Sebastian Conran of Conran &… → Read More
