Breakfast Topic: Most hated daily quests {WOW Insider}
Apr 9th 2008 8:20AM i'd have to say the skettis bombing run. it's fun to bomb the eggs, but those orange vulture birds aggroing are a real pain. one upside is there's usually an adamantite node up there XD
The Daily Grind: When will you be done with WoW? {Massively}
Feb 26th 2008 3:06PM i played a priest to 60 when WoW first came out, got a few of the set pieces, then quit in frstration at the time requirements. this was back when priest were practically the only viable healing class, so once i was in a group, i was really stuck no matter what. also i was sick of the PM invites the second i logged on just to check my mail. did a announce in IF once day and gave away all my gold to the first 10 lowbies that replied.
i couldn't believe how much time quitting WoW freed up in my life. went out on dates, read a ton of books, met a girl, fell in love, got married, moved into my first house.
two years later, i had the itching to play it again. i wanted to see the new gear, instances , etc of TBC. so now i've got a level 57 mage, and for the most part, i'm having fun. i'm in a smallish guild and no one pressures me to commit 3 hours of my life (which i don't have most nights, now that i'm married).
i think Blizzard is truly doing the best they can. when u think about it, of course they can't satisfy the hard core "in Mom's basement" power guys AND the "only play a couple hours a week" people. but really, there's something for everyone.
i don't blame people for quitting. if you hit a wall, you hit a wall, you don't have to convince yourself to stay! go out, have relationships w/ real people, learn how to socialize IRL, etc etc. and for god's sake, try not to be jealous of the guy with all purple uber gear. just remember how many hours he toiled to get that and ask yourself is he really any happier than you?
So, what'd you get? {Engadget}
Dec 25th 2007 11:59AM got from the wifey (actually, the wife let me buy it, but that's pretty much a Christmas present, right?) :
20 inch aluminum iMac and a copy of World of Warcrack and Burning Crusade. i've already got bootcamp on the bad boy! yeah!

Oct 26th 2007 6:00PM wow, that's a bummer that you can't change background in each of the spaces. kinda makes sense that you should be able to.
5 things you need to know about the iPhone 1.1.1 update {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 28th 2007 10:07AM not sure why some folks are so down on the wifi store. i played with it last night and its pretty great! i purchased a couple of songs that were running in my head at the moment and it was pretty neat to be able to do that wirelessly without a computer.
frankly i think apple customers are acting like spoiled brats that want EVERYTHING and a bag of chips. they want an iphone that's cheap, but not reduced in price; one not locked to a network, but stable and updatable; one that they can hack but still be covered under warrenty. i mean, WTF, it's an incredible device! i'm no apple apologist, but this new round of "bashing" comes across as a bunch of whining from people who want their cake and eat it too.

Sep 5th 2007 2:13PM IMHO, this is bigger news than any new hardware. the ability to buy songs without syncing to a computer is the holy grail of portable music and video!
what i wonder is how darned slow it must be to download a video via EDGE!
