Quiting time

I've really let this place go to hell over the past few weeks. Like most endeavors, I was all gung-ho about it at first, since I felt there was a need for it. Over time, I've since discovered plenty of outlets that cater to my tastes, and do a much more comprehensive job of it than I could ever do at the same time. Every once in a while I'll still stumble upon something that falls through the cracks, so I'll put it up here if there is no better place for it. That means in order for this place to not turn into a link log or duplicate of places like andriasang.com or siliconera.com, I'm officially removing myself from the news reporting side of things. That means that updates will now be extremely irregular, and infrequent. I also refuse to turn this space into a diary of twitter-level uselessness. That means I will not be taking pictures of what I eat, or muddying the waters with gadget reviews or some other such nonsense. After two years of activity, I'd like to at least think that the reader has learned something, and can now stand on his own two feet, as it were, and learn about new interesting things on his own. And at the very least, I'll have more time to play some damn video games, eh?
