Evening Reading
Steve Gibson
1669
After looking at the Episode2 thread today and poll results I think i'm off to see the movie tonight. Got a few too many things to do this evening but thankfully my local theatre is showing on 4 screens and has it running as late as midnight. Texas theatres in general are really quite nice.

- History of gaming exhibit, neeto
- Canada has a budget surplus
- The stolen cyanide truck showed up, missing cyanide
- This kid is stupid Thanks Fark
- A bunch of art destroyed, bummer
- Face scanner not working out
- Spam laws in Europe

Lastly, it looks like we had another backout in advertising for the 120x600 towers (Man I suck as a salesman). We've got 50% rotation free right now and for the next month. Was thinking of having another pennystock style sell off to help us cover E3 expenses. I'm thinking $40 each slot, 5 slots max per person. We're expecting 1million unique visitors and 20million page views over the next month or so. If I get 20 people emailing me at this address saying "yes, I'm absolutely going to buy a slot" I'll go ahead and open things up tomorrow. Sound good? note: You dont have to be a company to have a banner. You can buy a spot to proclaim to the world how cool you are or think Maarten is if you like.
