Halloween Gaming

It's Halloween, and you know what that means: sitting around working on a paper. Also, I'm trying to get on the one-day-only Halo 3 playlist of zombie games. Unfortunately, certain people (I'm looking at you, everyone) is hogging the Internet around here. My connection is awful right now. If you're reading this, you're on the Internet. Get off, and leave some bandwidth for me!

That is, unless you're living near Bungie, and sending the electrons my way. If you're doing that, try to send as many files as you can to the general Minnesota area. I need all the electrons I can get at this point.

Orange Box Update

Looks like Valve is Updating the Orange Box. This is good news for me, since it claims to reduce bandwidth usage, and I'd been having some lag. I'll report back later if it worked or not.


PS.
In the RPG I'm running, someone has a Vulpix Pokemon as sort of a mascot. I did an image search to see what they look like, and OMG, what the hell is wrong with people?

Picasa

If you're using Google's de facto OS accessible from anywhere on the Internet (see Google Docs, etc.) you may be interested in using Picasa. It's a program that finds all your pictures and gives you basic photo manipulating tools. Like all Google programs, it makes finding your files so easy you begin to hate Microsoft for being so cumbersome. Also, it coordinates well with the internet. For example, you can find all of the pictures I've taken that are any good at my Picasa site.
