Video Games
I’m very interested in gaming and what with working at an online games company and running my own shareware games store I like to keep up to date with gaming news. Being a blogger I thought I would spread the joy and list a few of the gaming blogs I visit daily.
Insert 25I don’t like the name of the site, it doesn’t make sense if you’re outside the US ...
Star Wars – Revenge of the Sith
Some of us have already got tickets organized for the next Star Wars film (Revenge of the Sith) but if you haven’t, and you live near London in the UK, this might be worth thinking about?
I’m tempted – but that’s a lot of film to sit through. I very nearly fell asleep watching episodes 4 to 6 in one go so 6 films… woah.
Google Maps come to the UK
The Americans have had Google Maps for a while now. Us Brits now have our own version – hopefully they will implement the satelite photos soon cos that would be very cool. You can already see them on Multi Map so hopefully it’s not too far off.

Passwords – KeePass and BugMeNot
If you’re like me you have loads of passwords for anything and everything on the Internet. I have recently taken to making my passwords totally random combinations of letters and numbers. This makes remembering them next to impossible, which means there is now a text file full of passwords sitting on my desktop. Not the perfect situation to be in.
Enter KeePass – a very nice application for storing usernames and passwords. You have a single master ...
Doogle
http://www.doogle.org/ – Quite funny – if shortlived.
The next thing I do to the site is going to be a seperate section for these small links. I can’t keep having them appear on the main page.
