Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Mar 07, 2003 6:00pm PSTSo here is something I dont think Maarten or I ever really imagined happening. This weekend we'll be breaking 1million registered/verified accounts here on our little old website. Back when we launched Fileshack and the Mercury stuff just a few months ago, we were at 400,000 accounts. It's not really more significant than just another digit, but I guess a wow can you believe that? Makes a couple of guys kinda proud. Who knows where it will go from here... so uh, yay! Here's some ER:
- Nerdy laser stuff Thanks /. - Pics of Jupiter, purty - Wacky new hybrid aircraft - Wait a second, people dont like advertising? - The business of online gaming - Microsoft knocking a website offline - The study of word burstsLastly, an interesting article on what is so hard about making MMOG's.

Shit that sucks the life out of you:
Me: Trying to sell my house ... so being kicked out of my house by househunters every fucking weekend at the most inopportune times, like 3 times every weekend. Still no bid on the house, though. I'm thinking of charging people for loitering.

OK, well, this is probably a misuse of company resources, so I'm taking this down at the end of the day. But until then, you can get the entire Celldweller album, ripped and compressed by EAC + LAME -r3mix, here:
ftp://ftp.ghs.com/private/celldweller
I *HIGHLY* recommend you download this. Then go buy it from www.cdbaby.com . It's a great album. If you just want to listen to one or two good tracks, try "Frozen", "Symbiont", or "Afraid This Time".
Once again, this is really good stuff, give it a listen.

What are some shows that you guys wish were still on the air?
Me? Sifl and Olly. This show was pure genius and never really stood a chance in its late-night time slot on MTV. I've always heard rumors of it coming back, but it doesn't seem like it's going to happen any time soon. :(

One of the casings flew out of the thing and hit him in the forehead. He's got a huge welt now and a massive headache. Of course he hit exactly where he was aiming with it.
