New weblogger

February 15, 2001 by Michael Boyle

Don Melanson pointed me towards Feed’s latest special issue: Video Games 2001, with good articles by Steadman, Hall, Johnson, and more. Carl‘s up to his usual high standard: “But a 3-D shooter mapped into 2-D space also means an end to the paranoia — it’s no longer about what lurks around the next corner or who’s fixin’ to gib you from behind. The game isn’t necessarily easier, but — for me at least — it’s more like playing a game. If 2-D is less visceral, well, I eat enough Xanax as it is.”

Look, look

it’s another Montrealer who keeps a site like this one. luke.andrews.net, the weblog of Luke Andrews, who evidently does web work at Concordia, one of the universities I’ve attended. He wrote about the newly-launched Concordia site the other day, lamenting the “grand messy affair of interlinking files that reference each other”. If he only knew! I was tangentially involved with Concordia’s web development back in 95-96, when their grand plan was to give every department – not faculty, department – its own Mac with StarNine’s web server software on it – and each one was to develop its own site. Madness.
