I wasn't originally planning on going to the newest Commodore Expo, CommVex, this year. But having voluntarily missed the LUCKI Expo in Kentucky because of my unemployment, I need my fix.

I sent an email out to the CommVex organizers this morning about my interest in doing a demo on RSS. Now, this isn't really a Commodore-related technology. But it has such great potential for getting Commodore-related news out there, and nobody really seems to know about it. Besides, it's just a matter of time before someone codes up an RSS aggregator for Wings…

Thanks to Slashdot for this great link to A Gamers' Manifesto. It addresses a lot of the things that I hear from retro gamers about modern games. You know, all the stuff we get called "old fuddy-duddies" for complaining about. And it does it with a great sense of humor.

I like to think that some day the businesses of the world will wake up and realize they're part of a greater whole, that the energy devoted to cannabalistic [sic] infighting means ultimate doom for all. The leaders of the great religions of the world will realize that all of us, Muslim, Christian, Jew, all want the same for humanity. Women will realize it's the pale, studious type they want instead of the quarterback of the football team, and everywhere we walk, bunnies will dance a path for us. Dance, little guys! Dance!

Woohoo! The Simpsons' sixth season comes out on DVD on August 16th!
