Broken Saints
Broken Saints is a beautifully done flash animation. A little anime in feel with some strange sonic diversions every once in a while. The pacing is a little slow for my highly Americanized tastes, but it’s gorgeous all the same. More Flash fun can be found on Wired’s Animation Express. Trying to get past page…

Interview with Eric Meyer
This interview with Eric Meyer is a good read. Eric certainly seems to be at the forefront of CSS. If you have any interest in that or web development, I’d give it a quick scan.

Participatory Design: Star Wars Galaxies Case Study
I’ve never really gotten into any of the multi-user on-line games. But, this story about the development of the upcoming Star Wars Galaxies game is fascinating from a participatory design point of view.

Strange Surf Night
I’ll tell you, the Internet sure is weird tonight. First, I stop over at memepool, and find that everybody’s favorite head scratcher Time Cube has been put through a text to speech processor to create a kick-butt mp3 file. Then I head over to MeFi and get pointed towards the very trippy flashback. You have…
