Warcrafter

Searching around for something to allow me to "try out" gear, I found Warcrafter, which is pretty neat. It's still "beta", but lots of nice features. And, of course, there's Ghrikk. (0 comments)

Neat site that utilizes Google information and maps to get a quick look at how "walkable" your neighborhood is. I'd love to live somewhere that I could walk to lots of stores and such rather than having to drive. (0 comments)

Free With Mats

Nice, upcoming WoW site that lets you find gems/enchants as well as has user-submitted information on tradeskill crafting. Once more profiles are added, it should be a nice way to find people to craft items, do enchants, etc. (0 comments)

Next Midrange Graphics Card

If the AnandTech review is accurate (and I've always liked their reviews), the forthcoming NVIDIA 8800 GT card may be a fantastic compromise between great performance and moderate price. (0 comments)

Toyota WoW?

So, apparently, this is a real Toyota commercial that was aired this week during a college football game. Don't know about you, but I was cracking up! (1 comment)
