This post should probably go in the forum, but I’m just so excited…
The ArenaNet team has recently announce that we’re getting some sweet new content for Guild Wars. GameSpot got to interview the Guild Wars Community Relations manager and you can read all the neat-o goodness she had to reveal about the upcoming expansion here:
I Guess I’ll have to work extra hard to complete the current content before the expansion is released. Oh well… I’m willing to make the sacrifice.
Here’s hoping this is just a fluke, and not some plot by the Mother Brain at Apple to make us all wear stupid white headphones and blink in unison, but Quicktime fragged the software for my new Zen Vision. I was happily unpacking components and slipped the CD with drivers and software into my drive. To my bewilderment, it kept giving me the "This program had an error and had to close" message. Well, I followed the link to more info, and this is the page Microsoft popped up:
After I uninstalled Quicktime, the install of the Creative software went without a hitch. I’d like to believe there’s nothing to this, but in a world of white plastic and hip twenty-somethings rocking out in public to the top 40 on their iPods, nothing is certain anymore.
Anybody else have this problem? Fire an email off to me.
Saw this on engadget today. One more reason to love our friends across the Pacific. I swear, one day I’m throwing everything out the window and hopping the next steamer to Tokyo.
There are a lot of useless gadgets out there, but every now and then one gadget shines above the rest as a ‘Must Have’ sorta item. This is one of those:
As soon as I saw this bad boy the wheels started turning. I thought of sooo many possible uses for this item that I started getting light headed. Unfortunately this is a one-of-a-kind, but I may make an offer and see if Aaron will build me one for a reasonable price.
I’m sure my wife would frown on most of the applications I’ve thought up, but if nothing else, I could keep the stupid stray dogs out of my yard.

WELCOME ABOARD SLICK!
Opera has long fallen into the category of software I downloaded from the web that I actually licensed. So far, it’s the only software in that category. Well, get this – they’re going free. With new version 8.5, Opera is dropping the banner ads from their free version. Give it a try – it’s the original tabbed browser with a very slick RSS viewer, built in IRC chat, and don’t forget to check out mouse gestures. It’s also very skinnable, has the single best file transfer interface, a near-perfect popup blocker . . . and I’m gushing. Seriously, though, check it out.
Well, it took a while, but the ModStomp forum is now live. Feel free to post away to your little hearts content. We’re currently hoping for lots of good posts of your modding adventures. Show us what you got!
Hey all -
My team at eBay has put together a bunch of listings for different charities helping with the situation along the Gulf Coast. Anyone who feels like pitching in can bid on some items for a good cause. Thanks for any help!
Check out this sweet hippie vacation package! Working for eBay has its perks – you get to see all sorts of stuff like this. Only in America does something like this get $4k (and counting). Here’s hoping it keeps going!
My friend Kevin asked that I share this with The Internet at large. Enjoy!
