On a Lighter, More Nerdy Note

I recently posed a question to myself, as I often do (sadly, this is very true), and I (I would just like to point out that the sentence in the parentheses rhymed with the previous sentence) could not come up with an answer, although everyone around me seems to be of a uniformed opinion. It is mroe of an understanding, as they all seem pretty definite. The question I posed to myself was this:

"Which have I done? Finished more books, or finished more video games?"

Then, something amazing happened. I was told by a good friend of mine, my best friend, that the best way to figure this out is to make a list of both. And since I have this blog here, just sitting all alone and untouched on the internet, I figured that this would be a great way to document everything! So, my first post is going to be a list of the video games I have beaten, and my second post (Which will appear once I look through my book collection), will contain a list of books I have finished reading.

The list:

Google Buzz is a bad idea!

People use Twitter mostly because it is a quick, easy, simple way to convey messages to the outside world, be it friends, fans, or just to the internet itself. Google Buzz takes that concept, and completely destroys it. Taking a concept and completely changing it, while holding on to a portion of the initial idea, can be a good thing, but in this case it is not. If Twitter really needed a make over, either aesthetically, or how the idea is implemented, then it is very likely that they would have done it themselves.

There are examples. Twitter has attempted to step in only once, as far as I am aware, to take control of the site from the users, and alter it slightly. I am talking about, of course, the retweet button that the Twitter staff graced us with a few months ago. Since its addition, I have not seen, or heard, of more than a handful of people praise the idea, but many who resented it.

Ideas are mutable, that is fact, but sometimes they are just meant to be left alone.
