I mentioned the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/8086\">8086 processor<\/a>, which is to the personal computers what the <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Model_T\">Model T<\/a> was to automobiles: Not particularly good.

I&#8217;ve heard of this site before, but never checked it out until now.  True story: This post would have been up an hour ago if I didn&#8217;t just sink a bunch of time into watching 80&#8217;s TV commercials.<\/p>\n<p>Rutskarn, Mumbles, and I are all playing <a href=\"http:\/\/echobazaar.failbettergames.com\/\">Echo Bazaar<\/a>, a Victorian Gothic-styled social networking game. I&#8217;m a big fan.  It shows that the new wave of casual social games don&#8217;t need to be more mind-numbing Farmville knockoffs. The writing is smart and fun. The setting is exquisite, but daunting.  My own Victorian London (yes, I&#8217;m talking about my unpublished book again, I have officially become THAT GUY) isn&#8217;t anywhere near as vivid. <\/p>\n<p>Rutskarn mentioned <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/MDK2\">MDK 2<\/a>, which was an excellent game.  And this conversation reminds me that I haven&#8217;t seen my copy in ages. It&#8217;s not on my shelf.  I can&#8217;t even remember what the box looked like. I must have lent it out years ago and never got it back.
