Finding (Steampunk) Stuff on eBay
Lizabeta tells us how she finds stuff on eBay, and while she gears it towards steampunk (which of course I love), her tips can be used to find just about anything.

GDC 2008 – Impressions
Overall, I think I had a good time at GDC. I got to listen to many different talks, and see lots of interesting things.
I’m excited about that emotion sensing headset, as it can open up various new types of input to a computer. Not sure what to do with that input yet, but I’m not being creative about it yet.
I saw an MMO called APB that looked really great. The character creation system is unparalleled. The dynamic mission system seems pretty awesome too.
There was a steampunk styled video game being promoted (along with cosplayers) called Recoil: Retrograd being made by a Denmark company Zeitguyz.
I couldn’t get my laptop to connect to the internet through their wireless network, so I was unable to update at all during GDC. And then promptly forgot all about it when I came back to the real world. And now that’s all I can remember since I’m retroposting.
