BBC: Money more important than children

While talking about Madonna & Guy Ritchie’s divorce settlement on last night’s six o’clock news, BBC entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimba stated that the £50m financial settlement was more important than reaching agreement on their children. Huh? What does that say about our… Continue

Oliver Postgate

Okay… since nobody else has gone there, I just want to pay my respects to Oliver Postgate who passed away yesterday. Oliver along with Peter Firmin created many of the animated television programmes that I adored when I was a child. Let’s hope that one or two 38minuters… Continue

ARG not ARG

Sooooo… From a distance I had thought that Alternate Reality Games and Augmented Reality Games were one and the same thing. Seems I was wrong. To me, it looks like alternate reality games use various forms of real-world communication ‘touch-points’ to play games/puzzles that effectively take shape and exist inside the player’s imagination (although the triggers and action occur in the real world) …putting reality to one side by providing a parallel universe with a different ‘take’ on the world… Continue
