Comment on Gowalla for beginners by Peeking Into The Future of the Web

[…] And if there needed to be another proof that social networks play a crucial part in this industry, Andrew made me realized that in the small circle surrounding Benjamin, there was another familiar face I had discovered while becoming addicted to Gowalla in Orlando. I introduced myself to Gregg Pollack as “his arch-nemesis” since he’s involuntarily the person who made me realize how potent the mix of game mechanics and geomapping in Gowalla was. When I started playing in late 2009 it seemed like “checking in” where you actually were planning to spend some time was the only way to “play” Gowalla and it was hard then to see the addictive potential of the game. Understandably, most people go to the same places everyday: home, work, lunch, work and home again with some occasional detours here and there. But never anything very adventurous. When I first noticed the number of stamps Pollack had collected, it helped me realized there was another dimension to that game, something that could incentivize a crowd enough to have it create your database for you. Indeed Gowalla doesn’t ask business and locations to create their virtual equivalents, it simply lets thousands upon thousands of busy little ants do a relatively far less daunting task themselves. And at the end of the road, Gowalla can use the road that was paved by their users to create partnership with some of the businesses that were indexed in the process. This whole Gowalla business requires a essay of its own, but in the mean time you can accounts of my early dwellings in the realm of Gowalla here and there. […]

Don’t forget, Jim Caviezel was one of the main character in the amazing “The Thin Red Line” by Terrrence Malick, and he was, but we can forget it, Jesus in “The Passion of the Christ” by Mel Gibson. And they spoke about this remake a long time ago.

Comment on Mon nouveau jeu préféré by Olivier

Ouaip, c’est Spore, le nouveau jeu de Will Wright (Sim City et toutes les horreurs qui ont suivi).

Tu commence en soupe primordiale et tu finis dans les étoiles, évolution, personnalisation (trois bouches, 6 pieds, le pied), combat (survie ou juste pour le fun) des autres espèces, extermination ou alliance avec les autres espèces. Points de QI en explorant le monde. Super basique visuellement, mais très fun et con. Surtout quand tu chantes et que tu danses avec les autres espèces pour devenir leur potes et aller faire la guerre avec eux.

Ou comment faire des commentaires plus long qu’un message de blog.
