A pulse?

I realized this week that not only did I have a blog, but the most recent post on said blog was speculating as to what the Wii's price point would be, and wondering if we would ever see the long-rumored iPhone.   Positively paleolithic.

Well, with my preoccupation of the past year headed for page proof, it really is time to resurrect this thingy, catch up on what's happened, and get in the swing.

So, the Wii price point was announced, then Nemo was Chibi-Robo for Halloween.  He and I camped out for a Wii on launch day, and I then did it again to get a prize for the Grand Championships.  Then, Wario Ware, Wii Play, and Cooking Mama were released.

I've given a few workshops and tournaments for academic libraries, at UD Mercy and Macomb Community College, and I spoke at MLC's R U a Noob workshop.

Nemo and I built a Moonbase module for Duane Collicott's Brick Bash, and, I visited Alpena county library, did a Web 2.0 workshop for their coop, and produced a tournament for their patrons using my new screens. 

Most recently, I went to NJLA in Long Branch, New Jersey, and got to go into the city to meet with some NYPL staff.  I'm looking forward to ALA, the Techsource Gaming Symposium, and the Sandbox Symposium at SIGGRAPH.

I'll work on posting about each of those over the next few weeks, so if you've stuck it out this far, stay tuned!
