Yet Another Domain Name Acquired…

Monday, April 21st, 2008

Strawberry ParfaitI’ve always thought that I’d never get a domain name quite as cool as apocalypsewow.com… but it doesn’t stop me from trying. Instinctgratification.com doesn’t really do the trick. Forcedfeedback.com isn’t bad at all, but you do have to spend a bit of time ensuring recognition of that unexpected extra ‘d’. But now I’ve got something that’s nearly as good as apocalypsewow.com. In fact, it might be something that inspires me to go all insertcredit-style on making a new site:

OTACRACY.COM

Nothing there right now, but man, I really want to put something up there that’s substantial. Something that has stuff that people would willingly click on. Maybe even something that could get me a bit of extra pocket change thanks to the wonder of ad impressions! Maybe!

(Also, otakracy.com points to otacracy.com. I prefer the ‘c’ spelling, but enough people have mentioned the ‘k’ possibility that I had to get it…)

Still Alive…

Caution …just about. Standard stuff: having fun writing music and teaching classes and other random stuff, mostly related to writing music and teaching classes. The summer is going to be similar stuff and the fall will be only slightly less similar.

Since the last post, I did a bunch of stuff for Gamasutra and GameSetWatch regarding Game Developers Conference, although it really just boils down to two things: writing articles and taking pictures. A bit more interesting are a few photos I’ve taken that have been used as material in news items. Now I can add NPR to the sites I’ve had photos on… and that feels pretty nice, I have to admit.

A little part of me tells me: Maybe I should try to do more with this photo thing.  Maybe…
