As I turned on my computer this morning, and headed to the Everquest 2 website, my only thoughts were on finishing the article I had begun writing. It was an article doing a comparison between Everquest 2’s old outdated site, and World of Warcraft’s more recently updated site. Much to my surprise the site that showed up on my screen was not the same site I had been reviewing yesterday. Sony had finally updated their site!

Does that mean that the article is no longer needed? Well I don’t think so. If anything it is a good chance to go back and see how the new site has changed from the old site, and how the new site compares with the old site. On top of that I can still see how it stacks up against World of Warcraft’s site.

And They Tell Two Friends… October 18, 2007

About two years ago, a colleague and friend at the company I worked at talked me into buying a TiVo.  It wasn’t a hard sale, since I’d already been looking into picking one up and because (as Dan helpfully pointed out) there was a sale at BestBuy that week on the latest TiVo units.

So, I plunked down my credit card and found myself part of the “Tivolution” as my monthly newsletters point out.  Not too long after picking up the TiVo, he talked our friend Tom into buying a box.  This year, I’m thinking of buying my brother one for the holidays. 

So what does all this talk about TiVo have to do with online gaming?  Two words:  reward points.
