					I&#8217;ve been using my Nook color to tweet about the books I&#8217;m reading. I&#8217;ve had quite a few people tell me this was helpful. Choosing what book to read next is always an ordeal for me. I scour the web for best of lists and drill down through all of the &#8220;people who bought this book also bought this&#8230;&#8221; lists in my Nook. I ask all my friends what they are reading and if they think I&#8217;d like it. Maybe you are like me and maybe a quick list of what I&#8217;ve been reading will be useful. So here you								]]>

					I&#8217;ve talked about David Sirlin a couple times before.&nbsp; I think that if you were to crack open his skull, his brain would look physically different from other brains; I play his games because they&#8217;re good, but also in an attempt to figure him out.&nbsp; I felt confident that he&#8217;d have a useful perspective on the &#8220;clonin&#8217; fever&#8221; that swept the web recently, and I wasn&#8217;t wrong.&nbsp; He makes a distinction I think is vital, and desperately missing from the utopian/free love model of creative work - what amounts to an Aesthetics Of Cloning.

We had some difficult years, made some pretty huge mistakes and very nearly gave up. It was at that point that you guys stepped up. We decided that before we threw in the towel we’d try one last thing. We asked you guys to support us with donations. We asked for a couple thousand dollars a month so we could pay rent, buy groceries and get games. You gave								]]>

Most enthusiast gamers &#8220;get&#8221; Angry Birds almost immediately, and move on.&nbsp; For those outside our order - that is to say, the vast majority of bipedal sentients - the ubiquitous Angry Birds is one of the first opportunities to understand what their children are always on about re: vijamagames.&nbsp; It&#8217;s ridiculously easy to get and subsequently play, made so by the fact that even my grandparents carry around portable touchscreen computers with perpetual access to the dataverse.&nbsp; This is something even a life ass-deep in science fiction did not prepare me for.

There&#8217;s some kind of thing going on where EA is attaching things to things and then the things are whatever.&nbsp; It was one of many fanciful ideas, and was chosen ultimately because it had the lowest lethality index.

In another era altogether, I knew a young man who wrote for Voodoo Extreme who went by the name of Eidolon.&nbsp; I thought it was an excellent choice of handle, and I told him so; I tried to be of use to him while he navigated a work environment that grew increasingly strange in the fattest part of the Dot Com Bubble.&nbsp; That								]]>
