Hey, I got a stack of books from O’Reilly today, including Flash Hacks, which has my name in the acknowledgments section. Woo! Dave hooked me up with a guy who manages some of the tech review over there, so I did some of that, and got paid in free books! Woo!

Between short bursts of paying work, I’ve been playing Doom 3 a little bit. It’s not bad – it looks nice, but the gameplay is about what everyone expected, which is just Doom, with better graphics. They’ve only got one good trick, but it’s a pretty good trick. It’s fun, but I really look forward to other people making better games with the engine. Also, for all you nerds complaining about how you can’t use your flashlight and weapon at the same time: you are all tremendous wussies. I gotcher Hello Kitty duct tape mod right here, dorks.
