VFH: The Latest Views

Whenever I find something I think is interesting or useful, I like to let others know about it. Usually these items are technology, usability, accessibility, or web design and development-related. But not always. Sometime, it's just life. Here's the latest...

10 (Wii) Gaming Gadgets That Will Make Us Hurt Ourselves

Count me among those who just *love* the Wii. I'm having more fun with this device than I ever expected - and I'm using it more often than any gaming device I've had before.

So it probably should come as little surprise that I find myself wanting to at least try many of the things on this list. Especially #7. ;-)

Google shutting down virtual world 'Lively'
Wow, that happened fast!

I had played around with Lively a few times after the initial release. It was interesting from a techie POV, but I never was able to use it without some glitch interrupting the experience. Still, I figured that given enough time they would probably work through those issues.

I hope Google talks about why they pulled the plug so soon after launch, this is one of those times when some visibility behind the curtain could be a good lesson for the whole industry.

Looks like fun - and a great way for someone interested in 3D to get a taste of what's possible. Personally, I can't wait to carve out some time to play with it!
