Many gamers would disagree with you, especially given the proliferation of games that use mouse controls for aiming purposes (FPS games, Bastion, etc.).

Heck, what am I going to do during classes?

"Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?"

Most of the 2012 doom-mongers have been changing their tune as of late. Instead of predicting the end of the world, they're predicting "a time of great change" or "the dawn of a new era in human consciousness", things that are impossible to measure or prove. This is mostly to cover their bases, so that when 2012 ends…

I was going to post about this, but yeah, if you don't live outside the USA, the iPad2 is a foregone conclusion.

It's not just these images; all of her photos are amazing. She wins Flickr. She wins all of the Flickrs.

I want them all to get together and fight crime. Think of all the bad yo-yo related puns that are going unused right now.

Blackberry Messenger. Free chat with any other Blackberry user. It's not great in the U.S., but in countries where there is a large Blackberry user base, the use of BBM alone outweighs any conceivable advantage presented by iPhones and Android handsets.

27,000 people? How many Kevin Costner lookalikes on rafts is that going to take?
