Pete Zaitcev has a great post on Aoi Sakuraba with lots of screenshots. It reminds me of how charming that character is and how much I enjoyed watching her. He also talks about some of the major shortcomings of the series.
I’m sort of avoiding watching it again. I remember the series fondly, but it was one of the first anime I’d ever watched. The show is full of cliche’s and predictable situations, but since I was new to anime it all seemed fresh and new to me. I have a feeling that if I were to go back and re-watch the story it would look quite different.

An interesting but technically dense talk about gaming technology. I translate it for the non-coders.
Project Button Masher
I teach myself music composition by imitating the style of various videogame soundtracks. How did it turn out? Listen for yourself.
Fixing Match 3
For one of the most popular casual games in existence, Match 3 is actually really broken. Until one developer fixed it.
