Wapsi Square: Review

Posted on 22 October 2005 by Gnorb || Comments: 0 || Topic(s): Games and Entertainment, Random Web Things.

Recently, I happened to stumble upon the online comic, Wapsi Square. At first, I saw it referenced in a thread on a forum site somewhere. I didn’t pay much attention to it then because it didn’t exactly catch my eye. It didn’t seem funny, and based on what I saw then, this was a comic [...]

The Belief-O-Matic

Given the fact that I’ve been hanging out at Beliefnet a lot lately, and my adoration for pigeon-hole personality tests that cram you into some character or character type, it should come as no surprise that I’ve discovered the Beliefnet Belief-O-Matic.

What Character of [X Movie/Show] Are You Most Like?

Posted on 23 June 2005 by Gnorb || Comments: 1 || Topic(s): Games and Entertainment.

When I was a kid, one of the things my friends and I would always talk/argue/fight about was which character from whatever movie or show we “were.” Obviously, we weren’t the only ones. On the Internet, you can find “Who Are You” tests for just about every popular (and not-so-popular) movie and television show in [...]

I’m sure by the time you read this you’ll have already read about it, but Sony just unveiled the new PlayStation 3 at this year’s E3. (Here’s a bit more info from GameSpot.)
