2007 digital Xmas card!

Finally, I’ve taken the time and put together this years digital Christmas card. It took the whole afternoon, but it was worth it. I had to filter and go through many many many pictures to finally boil it down to about 70 pics. Heres the results:

Old first-person shooters and LAN nostalgia

I’ve been getting flashbacks of the first times me and my old buddy’s got together and had LAN party’s.

Still skeptical to the belief in In-game ads.

As with the classic ad-business model, I’m very skeptical to [...]

User-Generated content overrated?

Thats not to say that UGC isn’t worth something, its an excellent opportunity for a few really talented people to get noticed. But the majority of regular media and web consumer [...]
